    Default Skinner or Atkinson (who to keep) ?

    Hey,

    maybe you can give me a little help to decide about my keepers in a 12 team, keep 8 league.

    g, a, ppp, gwg, blk, hits, shots, +/- - wins, sv, sv%, gaa


    4c
    4rw
    4lw
    6d
    2g

    4bench

    Here is my team:

    C Eichel, MacKinnon, EStaal, Backlund
    RW Radulov, Atkinson, Josh Anderson, Konecny
    LW Skinner (c), Ehlers, Jenner, DeBrusk (rw)
    D Karlsson, Subban, Carlson, Leddy, Gudas, Hronek, Pulock
    G Gibson, Rittich, Dell

    My safe 7 keepers seems to be Eichel, MacKinnon, Karlsson, Subban, Carlson, Gibson, Radulov...but who is the last one?

    Skinner ? (high shot% last season, never more than 63 points, but playing in a better team now and with Eichel and my lone lw)
    Atkinson ? ( career season but now without panarin, still first line and pp1, 3 years older than Skinner)
    Anderson ? (beast in our league (37th best player last season !!), but might be easier to redraft)

    Thanks a lot

    I'm taking Atkinson. Yes, he'll suffer without Panarin, but Skinner is a multi-cat drag and his second half was very concerning.

    Could go either way. I think a role with the greater upside of Skinner with Buffalo primed to be better.

    Same Atkinson we know he will go down a bit but I don’t think by much. Still need a go to guy for scoring on their team and he will be it.

    Very close but I'd opt for Atkinson personally.
