    Default Keeper Question - Which 2 Do I Keep

    I am in a 12 team head to head fantrax league that counts G, A, Blk, Hit, PIM, +/-, SOG, Special Team Points, GAA, Wins, SV%. We dress 3C, 2LW, 2RW, 4D, 2G. We are allowed to sign 1 player to a 4 year contract and 1 player to a 2 year contract every off-season. You keep everyone who has term remaining on their contract plus we have 5 farm spots where anyone with less than 83 NHL games played can be kept.

    My keepers
    Connor McDavid C
    Leon Draisaitl C/LW
    Brayden Point C
    John Tavares C

    Carter Hart G
    Erik Cernak D
    Miro Heiskanen D
    Andreas Johnsson LW/RW
    Troy Terry RW

    Which player should I sign to a 4 year contract and which player should I sign to a 2 year contract:

    Nico Hischier C
    Ryan Nugent-Hopkins C/LW
    Mikael Granlund LW/RW
    Rickard Rakell C/LW/RW
    Erik Johnson D
    Hampus Lindholm D
    Ivan Provorov D
    Nolan Patrick C
    Max Domi C/LW
    Christian Dvorak C
    Antti Raanta G
    Darcy Kuemper G
    Brian Elliott G

    I am torn on what to do here. I am leaning towards Rakell and Provorov because I am already set at C which makes Hischier less desirable. Is my thought process flawed?

    Nuge and Domi were going to be my suggestions, but I could see Nuge and Provorov making sense too.

    Provorov 4 years and Rakell 2 years. Rakell is young and playing all 3 positions is huge.

    I have made a trade so I need to re-think this. I have acquired Brent Burns so he will definitely be one of the 2 guys I keep. With Burns being one of my keepers, do I use my 2 year contract on Rickard Rakell or Ivan Provorov?

    KEEPERS
    Connor McDavid C
    Leon Draisaitl C/LW
    Brayden Point C
    John Tavares C

    FARM
    Carter Hart G
    Erik Cernak D
    Sam Steel C
    Andreas Johnsson LW/RW
    Troy Terry RW

    With the acquisition of Burns and the fact the Rakell has dual position at C/RW/LW I would go with Rickard Rakell to a 2 year contract.
