Depending on which is harder to acquire through free agency, I'm ok dropping Anderson or Crawford at this stage. I'm guessing Anderson is easier to replace with a similar forward and stone is a big upgrade there. He'd probably be my drop.
Team in signature.
I'd like to move Stone back into the line-up from the IR and need to drop a player. Corey Crawford has been awful this season and I wonder if he's the odd man out among Andersen, Price, and Howard for me this year.
Which goalie would you drop to move Stone back into the line-up?
...or is the obvious answer that I just drop Josh Anderson and wait for my goalie situation to resolve itself?

I'd drop Crawford as Chicago has been awful and I haven't seen any signs that the situation is going to turn around. While Ottawa is also a train wreck, I expect Anderson to put up better numbers in your format. I wouldn't drop Josh Anderson; in a few of my multi-cat leagues, he's a top 60 player. I'd be surprised if Hayes had more value than Josh Anderson. In my yahoo league (which has the same categories as yours except no FOWs and no Points), Anderson is ranked 60th and Hayes is 210th. (I just looked it up). (And in the last 14 days, Hayes is 518th versus 114th for Anderson). I get FOW's are a category, but I just don't think it makes up for everything else...
It’s hard to drop Crawford because his history is rock solid. At the same time it’s hard to believe Chicago’s roster is worse than Detroit’s and all things equal Crawford is a better goalie than Howard. But good gravy, Chicago is bad.
