    Default Drop Kessel?

    Pondering if I should give up on Kessell and JVR...

    Would pick up two of the FA below
    1 Okposo, Kyle
    3 Backes, David
    2 Byfuglien, Dustin
    33 Kane, Evander
    4 Wheeler, Blake

    Was leaning towards Okoposo and Backes

    What do you guys think?

    Point structure for the league is
    Skaters:
    1 point per goal
    1 point per assist
    1 point per powerplay point
    2 points per shorthanded goal
    1.5 point per shorthanded assist
    0.25 point per shootout goal
    3 points per Hat trick
    0.15 point per PIM
    0.15 point plus/minus
    0.04 per Blocked Shots
    0.04 per Hits

    I don't think you should be giving up on your Leafs guys just like this. It's been like five games. Don't give in to the media insanity. If they were worth a roster spot three weeks ago they are still worth one today.

    Lol is this a 2-team league? The FA list is studly. Kessel isn't as good when SOG isn't a cat. Still don't think he's dropable.

    What is the cap system? If Kessel has a huge cap hit then perhaps there is more merit to dropping him.

    DO NOT DROP KESSEL. Despite the Leafs awful last 5-10 games Kessel remains an elite point producer. He's not all all-round stud but he is a point producing machine which is what your league calls for. If you drop him you will regret it.

    I would not be worried about being near the salary cap. Anyone you pick up for Kessel will give you more cap flexibility but unless you can use cap space for some other move it's pointless. cap space by itself has no value.

    If you're insistent on divesting yourself of a leaf JVR for Okposo would be an OK swap but seems like a mostly lateral swap.

    Ok so lets forget about Kessel
    What about JVR for Backes or Okoposo?

    Wouldn't a guy like Callahan be a better guy to drop?

    Also, I think grabbing Okposo is a good idea.

    Callahan has been good value for his cap in my opinion and hes on the first line again with Stamkos so I am hesitant
