    Default Drop Dubnyk?

    1 year league...Hutton, Mrazek & Dubnyk are my goalies.

    Ullmark, Reimer, Samsonov, Greiss, Dell, Halak, Saros, Broissoit etc all available. Don't want to drop Devan too early as I think Minny gets Bruce fired and prob turns it around (slightly) but would love to get in early if Holtby gets the hook.

    Any thoughts, much appreciated!!

    OL Overtime Losses 0 points
    S Saves 0.25 points
    SO Shut Outs 7 points
    SOG Shots on Goal .10 points

    Stick with Dubnyk, given the other options available.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    Boudreau is in the least year of his contract, and I think he has a contract to consult with the team, but not be the coach after this. If they fire him, they are downgrading the coach. It's not Boudreau's fault that the last 2 GM's have been bad. Jury is out on the new guy, of course.

    Ullmark, Greiss, Halak, Samsonov all interest me some off that list. Minnesota is going to lose a lot, and that's a lot of negative points.

    I pulled the trigger two nights ago and swapped him for Hutton ... having had Dubnyk and Holtby so far this year, the shutout from Hutton last night was GREATLY appreciated and very foreign to me.

    I would drop a player and try to wait out Dubnyk's struggles. He is going to get the lion's share of work there.....again

    Given your league settings, I'd consider dropping Dubnyk for Halak or Greiss. I'm convinced Dubnyk will get more starts than the other two, but Minnesota is a really bad team and with losses costing you -5 points, that starts to impact Dubnyk's value, even if he starts more games than Halak/Greiss.

    I can see Dubnyk playing 50 games, with something like a 20 Win and 30 Loss record. That works out to 200 pts in Wins, and negative 150, so you end up with only 50 pts.

    For Halak and Greiss, they will each play about 35 games total, but their records will be much better. Probably in the area of 20 wins and 15 losses, if not better. Basically, they will have roughly the same amount of wins as Dubnyk, but fewer losses.

    You league also gives points for Saves and SOGs, which obviously favors Dubnyk because he will play more games than Greiss and Halak, but without crunching the numbers, I don't think the extra points awarded for Saves and SOGs would offset the losses.
