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.
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.

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.
- I said... "God damn this tablet is heavy!"
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.
Ice Cap
Dynasty, 32 team cap league (1:1 NHL Cap/Floor), H2H weekly, points (G: 1 / A: 1 / Blks: 0.1 / HTS: 0.1 / SOG: 0.1 / W: 1 / SO: 1 / SV: 0.05)
Start 12 F, 6 D, 1 G, 4 Bench, 27 Minors/Prospects
Roster
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.
Want a Signature? Go to Settings, and you'll find Edit Signature down the list on the left.
Definitely spend on skaters. You're set in net.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
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.
