Pick 10 - Dynasty League Advice

[djkiang]

In a league that counts faceoff wins and can hang onto one goalie max, or no goalies at all. I'm debating whether to leave two of my goalies unprotected.

It's a 16 team league and my current goalie situations are protect one of Schneider or Hellebuyck, and protect 10 skaters. Or my other option is to protect nine skaters and one of Schneider or Hellebuyck. I guess the question is whether a Dubinsky or Zacha is worth more than Schneider or Hellebuyck.

Our league rosters C, C, C, LW, LW, LW, RW, RW, RW, D, D, D, D, G, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN

protect one of Schneider or Hellebuyck, and protect 10 skaters. Or my other option is to protect nine skaters and one of Schneider or Hellebuyck.

this makes no sense, which is it a G and 9 skaters or a G and 10 skaters? either way i think you keep Schneids

[RizzeeDizzee]

You count FOW and points only? FOW is the only multi-cat? Please be more clear, since if you count FOW, PIM and Hits, the Dubinsky takes on even more value.

Do categories like +/-, hits, blocks, PIMs etc get counted in your league?
In a 16 team league where max 1 G is kept and you only start 1G, I wouldn't be too worried about keeping one.
It's between J.Staal or Schneider for me.

Oops, I should've been way more clear haha

H2H - G, A, +/-, PIM, FW || W, GAA, SV%, SHO

Debating whether to protect 10 skaters instead of 9 skaters and 1 goalie. Which guys would you protect? I'm assuming the ones highlighted in red. If I decide 10 skaters, draft two goalies back to back. I keep waffling.

first of all your title is confusing, if its dynasty league i usually dont drop anybody appears to me that this is limited keeper league.

and yes, i would keep Schnider. i would also think about keeping Dumba over Schultz but its close.

[djkiang]

You are correct there are all sorts of confusing in this thread. This is my only hockey league, I'm usually a baseball guy and all the leagues I play in are dynasty so I wrote down dynasty in error.

Keep Schneider, plus these nine:

Vladimir Tarasenko StL - RW
John Tavares NYI - C
Dustin Byfuglien Wpg - D
Evgeny Kuznetsov Was - C
Claude Giroux Phi - C
Justin Schultz Pit - D
Jonathan Drouin Mon - LW,RW
Jake Guentzel Pit - C,LW
Matt Dumba Min - D

It's close with Dubinsky given your categories, but his health status worries me and I think he could be a redraft. Zacha is tempting too, but I think Dumba is the right guy for your 9th. Forget Sheary - no PP Time and not even a guarantee of top six. You could also keep Heelebuyck over Dumba, but I'm not a believer with Mason now on board.
