    Default Points only final keeper

    Limited keeper pool - keep 8 of 19
    Points only league, goalie wins +2.
    I could go with any combination of 5 or 6 guys for the last 4 spots. Any thoughts?

    Obviously
    Tavares
    Kucherov
    Voracek
    Tarasenko

    Last 4
    S. Aho
    Ehlers
    Josi
    Morgan Rielly
    W. Karlsson
    E. Staal
    J. Bailey
    F. Andersen
    Fleury
    Letang

    I'm big on Ehlers and Aho, but then the last 2 could be anything. Goalies don't get kept very much, maybe 2-3 per year in the whole league. And only 3 D spots on the team, so you can fill up pretty quick in the draft. I'd like to keep 1 D, Josi is a stud but Rielly is just getting going and will be the number one guy undisputed.
    Karlsson should regress, but enough to keep Rielly and Josi over him?
    Any chance Bailey puts up numbers again now that Tavares is gone?

    Hey!

    I think you MUST consider Andersen as a keeper option. Goalies of this quality, especially with Wins being the only stat, are rare. Pretty much only Hellebuyck and Andersen I would be 100% comfortable with next year. Goalies are not kept often in my league too, but Andersen will be kept I'm sure. I think he offers more value than Aho and Ehlers and is much harder to replace in the draft.

    That said, if keeping a goalie repulses you beyond reason, I would keep Josi before Aho and Ehlers. Rielly is tempting, too, but I wouldn't label him as undisputed number 1 yet.

    If you really want to keep a forward... I think I would bet on the 43 goals, 78 pts guy named Karlsson. Regression is almost a certainty, but I'm sure he will still be very relevant or at least very tradable at the start of the season.

    But I understand Aho and Ehlers are tempting options... I would leave Bailey out of the options. Just not buying it.

    For me : Andersen, Josi, Karlsson, Aho

    -Rob
    H2H - 16 teams - Auction (225 $ cap), cap up to 300$ after auction on any drafted player.

    Points (1), Defense goals (2), Powerplay Points (0.5), GWG (0.5), ShG (0.5)

    Hard to argue with that. I was leaning Aho, Ehlers, Josi, Rielly, but that's a good argument for Andersen.

    Absolutely agreed on Andersen. 40+ wins will most certainly happen this season barring injury.

    Aho, Josi, Karlsson

    I like Ehlers as well but with so many great players in Winnipeg I think he settles this year around 65 points. Vegas will regress but Karlsson is the man and I would expext for 65-70. If he repeats, gravy.

    Aho Andersen Ehlers and Karlsson for me!!

    Going to need to draft some dmen forsure.. Josi and Rielly are both 50+ point dmen, so it is tough releasing them.. But I also wouldn't want to drop aho or ehlers because they could explode points wise this year!! Hopefully you can trade Josi/Rielly for draft picks!!

    Agree with zorro - keep the forwaRDS and G and then target a 50 pt D early in your draft. Hate to lose some young studs with upside. Easier to redraft Josi or Reilly

    Interesting dilemma. After much consideration, my choices for your last four protections would be:

    Andersen
    Rielly - whoever said he's just getting started is right on, but he'll need to stay on PP1
    W.Karlsson - I do expect a little regression, but he should still be good for 70 points
    Aho

    Best of luck with your decisions.
