    16 team league so I know it's watered down but your team does lack any high end talent aside from Point. I am guessing this year is just a rebuild? Having Dahlin and Hughes will help with that but I don't see you competing.
    12 Team Keep 5 (2 F, 1 D, 1 G, 1 Any) G,A,PTS,PPP,SOG,HITS,PIMS,W,GAA and Sv%.

    F: Kucherov, K.Connor, J. Hughes,,J.Guentzel, A.Svechnikov, C.Giroux, T.Terry
    D: Q. Hughes, A.Pietrangelo, J.Carlson, A.Ekblad, Sanheim
    G:Bobrovsky, Ingram

    I would replace Myers. Having Shatty, Yandle & Dahlin on D - I'd just go straight bruiser and grab someone like McNabb, Polak who will stuff H,BLK,PIM for you.
    Myers won't see much PP time in Van, he also won't help your periph cats very much.

    You're pretty light on the truculence categories in general. I think you'll struggle to win those cats most weeks. That's an area you'll need to bump in trades or the wire

    I agree - which is why I picked up Hughes to get some better keepers!

    Really looking to rebuild, but wouldn't be awful to compete a little this year (aiming to avoid last).

    I was pondering that myself, with no high end talent, try and get those stats - thanks!

    Your 6 keepers - you don't care too much about periphs. Just Best players possible - Point, Hughes, Dahlin are 3 beauties to own... Then deciding which G to keep. Hopefully Markstrom or Ullmark or even Koskinen can hammer down the starting gig. In a 16tm league keeping 1 starting G is a must IMO.

    Agreed. It would be nice to get a solid keeper for a goalie.

    Admittedly, never played in a 16-team league before so it was pretty light in terms of choices.

    I would look to see if you can trade for Rittich and Talbot (moving both Schneider and Markstrom is fine). In the meantime, add Georgiev, Demko, and Merz (Drop Myers, Ullmark, and Koskinen).

    And then just slowly try to consolidate talent.

    That sounds good, thanks!

    Since its a keep 6, is there a goalie that you would focus on that could be a good keeper goalie moving forward?

    That's why I was looking at Rittich. Won't have full value this year, but moving forward, should improve.

    I like it!

    Any other trade targets you think I should focus on - arguably, my keepers would be Hughes, Point, Dahlin, Rittich, Toews, Nylander?

    I would say whoever the best player is that you can trade Toews for!
    Any chance the Svech owner would move him?

    Seems unlikely - is there a Toews + that you would go for?

    Sorry, those were separate thoughts. I didn't think Toews would land Svech.
