Last Keepers - Really Hard to Keep Certain Guys

[Steeler]

In this league (details in sig), how can I keep guys like Nylander & Heiskanen. As tempting as the offense is, the roto-output is just not there.

I've already decided to keep - M. Tkachuk, Schenn, Forsberg,B. Tkachuk, Trocheck, Trouba, Provorov, Gibson (salary determines round held, I have picks in the first 9 rounds so I am in excellent shape and will be able to draft studs that could not be held at max salary)

Which 2 should I keep given my stat categories - Nylander, Ehlers, Mantha, Rakell, Jones, Heiskanen, Sergachev

Thanks.

Can you explain the salary wrinkle a bit more clearly?

Rakell's contract is pretty sweet for cap leagues.
Heiskanen 2 more years ELC... yes please

For the draft, player salary values are the following:

Rounds 1/2 – 11
Rounds 3/4 – 10
Rounds 5/6 – 9
Rounds 7/8 - 8
Rounds 9/10 – 7
Rounds 11/12 – 6
Rounds 13/14 – 5
Rounds 15/16 – 4
Rounds 17/18 – 3
Rounds 19/20 - 2
Rounds 20/21 – 1

For each player a team holds, the team will forfeit a draft choice based on the value of that player. So, if a team holds a player at 10, it forfeits a 3rd or 4th round choice. Player salaries must either match the default draft round salary or may be lower than the default draft round salary by 2.

Player salaries are in parenthesis (the lower the better)

Keeps - M. Tkachuk (5), Schenn (5), Forsberg (6), B. Tkachuk (3), Trocheck (8), Trouba (7), Provorov (4), Gibson (4)

Bubble - Nylander (5), Ehlers (3), Mantha (2), Rakell (2), Jones (9), Heiskanen (4), Sergachev (3)

You have some really good fantasy roto keepers, it allows you to be a little more light handed, for me id keep Jones for sure and probably nylander as I think he returns to form, remember even in roto points count, you can balance hits and blocks with dman like Larsson or other waiver wire guys

[Eskimo Brother]

At those prices I would keep Rakell and Mantha.

[Steeler]

I have such a problem keeping guys like Nylander (same reason I never drafted guys like Kane or Marleau in the past). Dobber projects 63 points for Willy. 62 for Mantha, 57 for Rakell (just as examples). I'd rather have 10 points less from a forward, but 40 more hits, 20 more blocks and 25 more PIMs. If Nylander isn't gonna be a 80-90 pointer any time soon.....I think I'm good on him

[mjm44]

I hear ya, I think nylander has a 70-80 point year,

Trochek and Tkachuk are built for Roto…. good luck!

I like Heiskeinen and Rakell here with those cats and those values.

Please help with mine , thanks:

Rakell for sure. I think I'd lean slightly with Heiskanen over Nylander with the 2nd keeper.
