    Default Am I an idiot to not keep any of my D?

    Team is in my sig, can only keep 7. I'm looking at keeping Matthews, Marner, Ovi, Malkin, Stone, Bob and Price then trying to draft D.

    I feel I could regret this but also could regret not keeping Meier...Thoughts?

    I am not that versed in your scoring but Yes, trying to draft all those D going to be tough. No trade opportunity? I would take some of your D over Stone. Yes, Meier is a tough young stud to let go of. I am facing the same issue in one of my leagues and it is a keep 10.

    Maybe Chabot instead of Price? But not crazy enough either way to be an idiot, haha.

    You have no early round picks which is unfortunate. I wouldn't risk giving up all D men in that situation. I would definitely keep a D over Stone. He hasn't played a full season in his career. Letang has the most upside with your cats but he can get injured anytime. Subban is due for a big season being the go to guy for the Devils in PP1 and is by far the best D on that team. Seth Jones should produce all over. It's really upto you but I drop Stone for D at the very least.

    I’d consider keeping one of those D-men over Price or even Malkin.

    Certainly a tall order to draft 4 or 5 d men in the same draft and maintain the talent level you have now.

    Even if you kept one that would help...

    I don't think im really going to be able to get close to the level of talent that I have now. But I could realistically snag one of these guys in the 3rd round and possibly other players later (provorov, etc)

    I'd drop one of the forwards and keep a D. I'd keep Letang over Subban, as they both have injury issues, but Letang is more multi-cat. So it's Letang versus Jones to figure out which one to keep if only 1.

    Letang does have more cats that he fills but at the same time he's always injured. Stone or Malkin are my 5th forward and I think that Stone is going to absolutely blow up this year in Vegas.

    I would keep Chabot

    McDavid/Necas/ Kucherov/Bjorkstrand/Rust/Nugent Hopkins/Cirelli/Zegras/- Letang/Morrissey/Dahlin - Swayman/Saros/Skinner

    Prospects include:
    McTavish/Clarke/Bordeleau
    Dumais/Korchinski/Hutson

    Don't worry I'm not going to say anything more than I have to. If that.

    Vegas spreads out their offense. Stone should do well, but I don't see a 'blow up'. He is also a band aid boy. I would keep any of Letang, Subban, or Jones over him myself.

    The for sure keepers I see on your team are Mathews, Marner, Ovie. Then I personally would be keeping Subban and letang cuus these are 2 guys that will be hard to replace. Then if you league is like mine I am keeping price and bobs because gaolies are hard to come by. Especially great goalies!

    But I would consider malkin over price if goalies are availiable in the draft. Center is always so deep
