    Default Stick with BOB on a young team or wait on VAS?

    HI guys, new poster here.

    Just looking for some other managers insight on this as I'm really struggling to make a decision.

    I have a young team that will probably be good for a push in a couple years, currently rostering BOB and VAS but can only keep one. Leaning towards keeping VAS and having to sell ridiculously low on BOB which would make my goalies Quick VAS and whatever fillers I could pick up in the draft. Two goalie positions nightly make that a tough pill to swallow. Anyone keep BOB instead taking my team composition into account? Vasilevsky will probably go before I can draft him next year so I'm giving up one of them for nothing or virtually nothing in BOB's case. Thanks for the insight guys!

    Keeping Vas is risky, be nice with your core for sure but Bishop has another contracted year and starts aren't guaranteed right away. I would shop BOB by all means but maybe even a buy low on a guy like Talbot would be a nice move as he seems to have the job locked down on an improving Oilers team.

    I'd stick with Bob, and hope that he turns it around the rest of this season or next, and get his trade value back up. Then trade him for better prospects/picks.

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
    Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
    Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid

    Will Vas be the starter next year, or is Bishop going to be around again?

    With how well Tampa is playing there is no way they move him or Vas this year, but at the end of next season I Don't see them playing on the same team as Bishop will be very expensive and Vas will be ready for a starters job somewhere and would get a decent return if put on the market. Thanks for the help guys.

    I'd be shopping Bob, but id want more than Vas.

    Vas is very talented. But Bishop is playing at an elite level and has another year left on his contract. Also, Vas has played pretty bad this year.

    I think Vas is further away than many think, and if Tampa doesn't resign Stamkos, I wouldn't be surprised if Bishop is extended.
