Lehner, Stewart, Koivu.
I think JVR is a given here. I'd take Lehner to handcuff OTT goaltending. Then I thinks it's a preference between Koivu and Stewart and I'd lean toward Koivu since he lines up with Parise and Pominville whicle Stewart plays for Hitchcock who is more a defensive coach.
So JVR, Lehner and Koivu for me.

You NEED to keep Baertschi as one of your under 100 players. He finished last season with 9 points in 7 games and is going to build upon that this season. I project him to run away with the Calder. I'm guessing he out points Heatley,Stewart,and possibly JVR already this coming season with Baertschi getting top line and top pp time. So I'd keep Tarasenko and Baertschi as your 2 under 100. Then for the final 3 I would keep Koivu,Lehner,Bishop if goalies are at a premium. Or choose between one of them and keep JVR with Koivu and a goalie.
I think the poster above has unrealistic expectations for Sven Baertschi in what will be a throw-away season for the Calgary Flames entire organization this season....however, I do agree you need to keep Baertschi as one of your under 100 GP players. I'd keep him over Ben Bishop for sure. Bishop is stuck in a 1A/1B situation with Anders Lindback and those situations are always headaches for fantasy GMs.
For your other keepers, I'd strongly suggest JVR, Lehner and lastly, Mikko.
I like Lehner and JVR for sure. Stewart and Koivu are toss ups, I might like Stewart a bit more in yr league setup but not by much.
