Keepers - Pick 3 in my format please!

[Right handed shot]

Hey all! Need some thought's on my keeper situation. Get to keep 3. Cat's below in Sig. Players and rounds they're eligible at for my upcoming draft.

O'Reilly 7th
Arvidsson 18th
Saad 11th
Radulov 10th
Fowler 9th
Dumba 15th

No one else worth mentioning. I struggled badly last year with hits and SOG but don't wanna make the wrong picks based upon that. With my format who would you keep? Protect 4, keep 3.

Thanks in advance!

Arvidsson, dumba, radulov

I started my reply with Arvidsson, Radulov, and Saad... but then I noticed that your league has 7 defenceman. Now I'd say Arvidsson, Radulov, and Fowler. It would be nice to keep Dumba since he is young a defenceman, but it shard to justify dropping any of those three for him.

Arvy, Dumba, Saad

Thanks guys. No O'Reillys huh? Is that because of the round, injuries/other? I was gonna take O'Reilly, Saad and Radulov. I also forgot to mention Zuccarello at 10th as well but forgot to. Does that change anything on your end?

As far as Dumba and Fowler go, who do you like more and why? One thing I've noticed about Fowler is that he seems to have trouble passing 40 points which I think is a little low considering the time he gets on the power play and the players he's surrounded by.

I think Dumba will just continuously get better. I think he's a stud. Flat out, but is he ready to pass 40 pts? He hits a little, gets some Pims but the shot total seems low.

Anyone else?

Thanks!

I like Arvidsson, Saad and Fowler.

I like Arvidsson, Saad and Fowler.

Why not Radulov? Just curious. I'm kind of on the fence about him because he does disappear from the score sheet for some extended periods of time. He did last year but, with Benn and Seguin that could change quickly. Question is does he stay on the line?

Radulov is risk/reward personified. I'm going to let him induce white knuckles from another GM in all my leagues. You have better options.

ROR is likely to suffer the fate of Dubinsky and Kesler - stuck on the second line with the toughest assignments. Plus, he's no multi-cat beast either.

I simply don't trust him. You are expecting him to play with Seguin and Benn all season. There's no guarantees that Seguin and Benn themselves even play together all season, let alone Radulov with them.

That's kind of what I figured as well. The only thing that troubles me about letting him go is that he had the most PP points than any of them, but yes, Eichel will chop that down.

That's a fair point, but Kesler gets PP1 time and posts 45-50 point in most seasons....

And that's exactly what scares me. Yep! Saad, does he get top line time along with top PP time, or does Sharp snag that away? Love the feedback guys! Keep it coming please. Thank you!

Great point

What the heck does "protect 4, keep 3" mean? You can protect 1 guy you can't keep?

I'd go Arvidsson, Radulov and Dumba.

I think you need to keep a D in that format. I don't think Fowler is worth giving up that many rounds...

Radulov could have a monster year.
