    Default Coyle - better option?

    Should Coyle be dropped for any of the below? G, A, Pts, Hits, Bks, SOG, PPP. Seeing he's not cracking the top 6, and our keepers are limited at the end of the year so there isn't an upside play for future years.

    Semin
    Pouliot(even more value with Eberle down?)
    Lethera
    Palmieri
    Lupul
    Tlustny
    Gagner

    Thanks!

    If these are WW options, I'd probably wait to see how things start off.
    Lehtera and Semin are the two most interesting candidates in my mind, but Coyle's had a great preseason and his underlying numbers show that he could be in for a surge if he can get some top 6 minutes. (http://www.hockeywilderness.com/2015...rated-ice-time)

    So basically, unless you're worried these other two will get snatched soon, it might be worth seeing actual NHL games and gauging where these guys end up in their lineups. Semin could be press box or scoring winger, Lehtera could be with Tarasenko or 3rd line C, and Coyle could be better or same as last year.

    Coyle has had an incredible preseason. I'd give him 15-20 games before making a decision.

    Pouliot wont be affected by the Eberle injury. Guys like Yakupov or Slepyshev would be though.

    I am not sold on Coyle, even with his strong pre-season, as it is only pre-season after all.

    If those guys are on the WW today, they probably will be to start the season as well. Keep an eye on guys like Palmeiri (who could have a decent year as the top RW in NJ), Lehtera (he's coming off an ankle injury so be wary of a slow start due to no training camp) and even Pouliot.

    If Coyle starts slow, be ready to pounce on a free agent.
