Welcome to the forums.

lucafen is right when he asked for more info. We can't give an accurate response to help without all the info.

I have point, w Karlsson, Marchand, van riemsdyk, ehlers, draisaitl, lucic, marchessault, r johansen, ekholm, sergachev, j Carlson, letang, f Andersen, hellebuyck & talbot on my team. I'm also wondering if 4 goalies would b too many since I can only start 2 in each matchup. Although there have been a bunch of goalie injuries already this season so a better safe than sorry policy might b good. I'll go ahead & post the goaltending cats also.
Scoring Cats:
Offense:
goal 3 pts, power play goal 1 additional pt, short handed goal 2 add pts, assist 2 pts, 3 pts for every 10 pims (0.3 per), 1 pt up/down for every +/-
Goaltending:
Win 5 pts, shutout 3 pts, 1 pt for every 5 saves (0.2 per), -1 for every goal against

sounds like weekly matchups... a fourth might be too much, but... holding 4 starters, depending on how large your league is (12+ teams it becomes huge) would give you some really solid trade clout as the season progresses.

I'd be tempted to make the add, but I would drop Johansen. He's kind of crap in this set up. He doesn't shoot, he doesn't score many goals and the three you want to drop are all going to double him in goals and push his point totals. He's probably the least valuable forward you have.

I'd then try to trade Talbot for an offensive upgrade.

Thx for the great advice! What u said makes a lot of sense. I guess I was being too optimistic w/ johansen being on Nashville's top line. It's a great line to play on but he just doesn't take advantage of it enough. He's more of an assist player. He just doesn't score enough goals as u mentioned. I dropped him & picked up Rask. Yes it's a weekly matchup h2h league. I will definitely consider trading talbot for a good offensive player. Thx again!

How many do you start at each position? I know you start 2G but how many D and do you start just forwards or do you start a certain amount at center, left wing, right wing, etc.
