    Default Goalie question

    In a 12 team roto keeper league, we do an auction then draft after auction. It's start 2G any given night. G stats are W, Saves, Save%, GAA
    Going into auction I have Hellebyuck, Georgiev, Shesterkin and Sorokin (The latter are minor league players and can be carried over for free ie; no salary/keeper spots) Can only keep 2 goalies end of season (minus MLP, cutoff is 27gp)

    I have NYR locked down betwen Shesty and George, I got Hellebyuck who is one of the last workhorse goalies in the league.

    The question I pose to you fine gentlemen. Should I target Varlamov at our auction to lock up the Isle tandem or should I spend my monies elsewhere to improve upon my team?

    Team in sig is what I'm going into auction with.
    12 Team Dynasty League. $4 increase per player a year FP/ reduced salary for 3 years, Keep 8-12 (League Champion 14/15, 16/17, 19/20, 22/23, 23/24)

    Categories - D-G, G, A, PPP, SHP, SoG, Hits/Blocks, FoW, FoW%, Give/Take, Wins, GAA, Save%, Saves.

    C: Tavares $33, Eichel $16 (1st yr FP), Trocheck $18, Jenner $9 Beniers $2 (1st yr RC)

    W: Ovechkin $18, Hintz $17, Pavelski $11, Zacha $10, Kaprizov $7, Johnston $2 (1st yr RC), Reichel $2 (1st yr RC), Bertuzzi $1, Tippet $1

    D: Burns $20, Jones $17, Werenski $16 (2nd yr FP), Matheson $5, Spurgeon $1, OEL $1

    In a start 2, I think you are set with the Helly, Shesty/Georgiev combo as it is. Sorokin is a nice bonus compliment. Spend your money on top end forwards available.

    Yup. You're perfectly fine in nets. I'd spend your money elsewhere.

    I’m gonna go the other way. I think that this season (if there is a season) is going to be condensed and having tandems are going to prove ultra important. Two tandems and Hellebuyck would be outstanding.

    My concern is that there's a not-insignificant chance Sorokin might not play much. If you're wanting tandems, would be a lot cheaper to grab Broissoit for dirt cheap. Varlamov will cost you a lot more for someone you're not going to keep.

    But yeah otherwise I'm in the "spend your money on skaters" camp.

    I would spend on skaters... every GM will be dealing with the condensed schedule, so get an edge on skater cats and pick up an available back-up later - who will play abnormally high # of games this season.
    10 Team H2H Points (Keep 1C, 2W, 2D, 1G, & 1 non-goalie):
    G,A,+/-, PIM, PPG, SHG, GWG, OTG, FOWs, Hits, Blks, Maj, Mis, (bonus scoring for D-men makes them comparable to Wing)
    Wins, Saves, GA, Shutouts

    18 Man Roster (3 IR slots) Daily Start: 2C, 4W, 4D, 2G

    C: Zibanejad, Thomas, Tavares
    W: Stutzle, Robertson, Connor, Buchnevich, McCann
    D: Makar, McAvoy, Josi, Theodore, Matheson, Harley
    G: Georgiev, Binnington, Kochetkov, Andersen (IR)

    Spend on skaters. Brossoit won't even go in the auction, and should be there in the draft after.

    Agree w/others. $$$ for skaters.

    If you have 3 teams worth of goalies: WPG, NYR... and NYI... that's when you start "benching starts" - which just isn't a good use of fantasy hockey investment.
    Roll with WPG & NYR... and if a 3rd goalie team falls into your lap, fine, but don't pay for it.
