Your D is pretty stacked. I'd sit on the upside of hubs over the upside of Hamilton. Stan pat IMO.
Please help, is Huberdeaus upside too big to let go of. I've won this pool 2 years in a row. Not sure I need Hamilton and I can probably wait another year for Huberdeau to improve but I dont want to wait 3-4 years.

Sorry I just changed my sig. The team you saw was from 3 years ago. If you have a sec take a look again and please tell me what you think.

If +/- is counted for D, Hamilton is a potentially nicce option obviously...+22 last season
Letang is a risk due to always being injured and cannot accumulate stats from the trainer's room...
Phaneuf & Franson are likely to range between -5 to +5 depending on how bad Toronto is this year defensively as a team
Big Buff likely will not have a good +/-....-46 for his career and -20 last season
Subban should be good, but was -4 last season even though he is +10 for his career
Streit was +3 last season and the Flyers D is pretty weak so that may slide
So, I see why you are interested in Hamilton, but Huberdeau has high upside so I'd probably hold onto him
Why is Bernier on your bench? I might dangle Crawford and see what you can get and bring Bernier into the starting lineup
Also, I'd get Scheifele into your lineup if you can

Stick with Huberdeau. You have a nice group of defenders already, while your forwards tail off a bit towards the end.

I see your roster has changed....
Keith is a nice addition and shoud have good +/-
Fowler was +15 so you should be ok there
Subban, see above
Barrie was +17 last season, but some believe COL is due for a correction which may impact team +/- performance
Goligoski was even 2 out of the last 3 years, was +4 last year...
Brodin was even 2 years ago and +3 last season
I think you're better off now and should keep Huberdeau

I'd do it.
Hamilton is about to become a beast for points AND +/- from the backend. Brodin is a better real life D than fantasy option and doesn't score much.

I like Hamilton. But don't read too much into +/-. It's all over the place and very seldomly maintained. It'll always regress towards the mean.

Keep them coming fellas lol. So far it seems pretty unanimous that I keep Huberdeau. Just remember in my league even if Hamilton maxes out at 50ish points his +- can make him a ppg player in our scoring cats.
Important note. We have not drafted yet and I can get myself some decent high potential forwards to replace Huberdeau. D is scarce with whats out there to draft.

Another vote for Huberdeau. The kid apparently put on 17 pounds over the summer. While that sometimes doesn't work out for hockey players, I think I'd wait until I see how he does this season. I'd be sticking it out with Hubs.
