Should I pick up Vokoun?

[bizzl]

One of the leagues I'm in had it's draft recently and I couldn't make it. As a result I ended up with only 1 goalie, Marc-Andre Fleury. I picked up Nabokov, but now I'm wondering if I should grab Vokoun as well. He's the best option available on free agency and he'd guarantee me all of Pittsburgh's starts. If I should grab him, who do you think I should drop?
Most teams are running with 3 goalies, some 4, and aside from the guy who only drafted Harding I've easily got the weakest group. I've thought about dropping a defenseman for Vokoun, but that would leave me with only 5 D and 6 starting slots. I'd rather avoid not being able to play a full roster.

Here's the league info and my team:

12 team, H2H league
Start 9 forwards, 6 defensemen, 1 utility, 1 goalie. 8 bench spots.
Skater Categories: GP, G, A, +/-, PIM, GWG, HAT, SOG, HIT, BLK, DEF, PPP, SHP
Goalie Categories: GS, W, GA, SV, SO, MIN, OTL

F: Malkin, Backstrom, Hartnell, Thornton, Marleau, St. Louis, Wheeler, Brown, Dubinsky, O. Jokinen, Perron, Ennis, Huberdeau, Plekanec, Desharnais, Couturier, Henrique, Atkinson
D: Ehrhoff, Liles, Josi, Larsson, Vlasic, Stralman
G: Fleury, Nabokov

[4T2]

Daily starts? If so, I think you should grab Vokoun.

At the expense of who is a tougher question though. I would have to lean towards Ennis. You have the forward depth to make this move easily.

1) Definitely add Vokoun, I would drop Henrique. He's not slotted for top line center & he may even likely just anchor the 3rd line.
Henrique had good magic last year with Parise (while Zajac out). Parise is gone & Zajac is back. Things will be different. He's not mature enough to anchor a star-depleted top line.

2) Is Ray Emery available? I'd consider adding him. Chicago has a nice schedule for off-nights and it won't take long for Corey Crawford to lose several starts.
I would probably consider dropping David Perron next.

3) Keep Ennis & Huberdeau & Atkinson for a while. All three have considerable upside for this year... don't drop these guys yet.

Thanks for the replies, guys. We have daily starts, 4T2, so adding Vokoun makes sense. The issue now is who to drop! Henrique is a good choice, but he's on my injured reserve list right now and wouldn't open up a spot. I was able to add Nabokov without dropping anyone because of him.

Knowing that, would Perron be the next logical choice? If Henrique comes back anytime soon I might as well drop him, but is Vokoun for Perron a good trade-off?

Emery is available as well. I'll take a look at him as well.

call me crazy but i would take Perron in ST Louis on the top line over Dubinsky in Columbus on any line

Ennis ended the year well last year on a line with foligno and stafford so id keep him

against dubinsky in columbus would be my drop guy
