    Default Another “WHO DO I KEEP” thread

    I’m in a 10 man, points only, keep 4 league and I’m having bit of a hard time picking who my keepers should be for next season. I’m not going for the win next season do to trading my 5th, 6th and 7th picks for next season and more aimed at the 2016 season.

    My roster:

    Steven Stamkos
    Jakub Voracek
    P.K. Subban
    Nathan MacKinnon
    Zach Parise
    Derek Stepan
    Joe Thornton
    Andrew Ladd
    Oliver Ekman-Larsson
    Duncan Keith
    Keith Yandle

    Sergei Bobrovsky
    Devan Dubnyk
    Jaroslav Halak

    At the moment I’m leaning the top four forwards, I just don’t know about Mack after this season. He was worth his weight in gold last summer on the forums and then had a sub par year plus his injury. Do I replace Mack with an older Parise or Thornton and hope the stay at their level for 2016, or even keep another D like yandle or Keith. Word of mouth is that only the Karlsson owner and myself will keep D, so I doubt I’ll keep two.

    The other option is Dubnyk or Halak, but I think goalies are so unpredictable.

    Both line, in a points only league would you keep Stamkos, Voracek, Subban and Mack out of the listed player?

    How is your scoring set up? I'm wondering specifically about goalies. If you're not keeping a goalie the top 4 guys you have listed are the ones I would be keeping. Stamkos, Voracek, Subban and Mack...Depending on goalie points I would sub Bobrovsky in for MacK, I like him better than your other G options regardless of the scoring set up.

    Unless you have Price or Lundqvist, i wouldn't keep a goalie in a keep 4 format.

    I would keep Stamkos, Voracek, Subban and MacKinnon and i think it a pretty easy choice.

    Don't worry so much about Mack. He's not another Yakupov. Colorado's PP was terrible last year, and Mack's shooting percentage was down for most of the season. Just off the top of my head, if those two things were close to the year before, Mack's stats would have looked pretty similar to his rookie season. Long term he's going to be a really good player.

    Keep your top four.

    Because you’ll have a hard time competing next yr, go for the young guys and ignore Thornton and Parise.

    Stamkos, Subban, Voracek, MacKinnon is the easy choice for me assuming it’s a generic scoring set up

    Out of your goalies, I like Bob. I could go either way between him and Subban.

    In my experience, in a keep-4 a goalie run will start almost immediately. If you wanted to improve your forward situation you could do that and not be under pressure to join the goalie rush.

    Or, you could keep Subban if you think you can improve upon Bob. That's the choice you'll have to make.

    But I'd be willing to bet that more Gs will be kept than Ds.

    Making assumptions that there's probably a start 9F/5D... something like that.
    I agree with this post above.
