I would cut Ovie and Hart and keep the other 8 assuming Fiala's next contract is reasonable.
This right here! That was my first thought as well, love Ovi but no longer a locked in keeper in salary cap leagues! There is a good chance that Fiala and Byfield would be drafted ahead of him (Fiala's contract dependent of course).
Edit: I don't mean he is not still a keeper just someone if I had him in this league I would have to consider shopping and really go through my keepers, just not the same no brainer he has always been. Same with Backstrom. All comes down to what you are looking to do with your team! I still believe Ovi has lots of scoring left.
