Championship Finals - Who to Start? (REP)
So this week is the championship finals for my one year league (Categories: Goals, Assists, Points, PIMS, +/-, Shots, STP, Wins, GAA, SV%) and I am trying to sort through who to start. The good news for me is that I finished first in the league so even if I tie 5 to 5 then I get the tiebreaker in the finals. Right now my locks are as follows:
C - Eichel (4 games)
C - MacKinnon (3 games)
LW- Pastrnak (4 games)
LW - Ovechkin (3 games)
RW - Granlund (3 games)
RW - S. Reinhart (4 games)
U - Barzal (3 games)
D - Klingberg (3 games)
D - Carlson (3 games)
D - M. Reilly (3 games)
D - Zadorov (3 games)
G - Vasilevskiy (3 games)
G - Murray (4 games - assuming he is back)
This leaves me with two open utility spots for the following players:
- Craig Smith (4 games), Clayton Keller (4 games), Jonathan Marchessault (3 games), Evgeny Kuznetsov (3 games however not guarantee he will play), Mark Stone (3 games however not guarantee he will play).
Right now I am actually leaning towards Craig Smith and Clayton Keller as Marchessault has been ice cold lately and there is too much uncertainty around Kuznetsov health for this week but would really appreciate some advice on this.
