Kyle Connor and Ehlers... hold them?

[jimc21]

These two, along with Bertuzzi, are probably the bottom of my roster. I have high hopes for them, but neither get me the peripherals that I would like to have, and there are other guys out there on the FA list that are tempting. Any of these worth a shuffle? Team in signature. Scoring cats: G, A, PPP, PIM, +/-, hits

Kakko
Lee
Hughes
Keller
Hornqvist
Reilly Smith
Hintz
Perron
Drouin
Hischier
JT Miller
Johnsson
Henrique
Silfverberg

I am a bit shy on hits and PIM's... Lee would help, but Kassian and Lucic are on the wire too. But should I take a flier on Hughes? Hintz? Perron seems like a solid play who'll get me hits too. Thanks!

I would hold them, or at least trade them them for something valuable. I tried to trade Palmieri for Connor today (wishful thinking), so I'm sure someone out there wants him.

I have limited cell service right now, but at a glance, Lee, Hornqvist, and JT Miller look enticing. And I know the community here is really high on Hintz.

Ehlers is currently out producing all expectations, so if you’re unhappy with his current output yes you should drop him

Thanks guys. I am really tempted to pick up either Miller, Hintz or Tanev. Tanev's ceiling for points is probably 45-50, right? But he's good for 250 or more hits. He got 278 last year with WPG. Hintz seems like he could break out. Folks are really high on him. and Miller is top line and top PP, playing with Boeser and Pettersson. I guess it's just a question of streaming right now... and Ehlers, Connor or Bertuzzi are the candidates to drop. Ehlers is rated very low in my Fantasy Hockey Geek rating, mostly because he won't hit and won't get PIM's. Despite being the highest scorer of the three right now, I think he might be the best candidate to cut loose.

Lee is probably the best stat coverage. Ehlers and connors aren’t very droppable, but if that’s what you do I’d be grabbing lee. 50 points, lots of shots and good hits.
Miller is top line and good stat coverage. Less shots.
Those are two long term plans.
For short term streaming or taking a chance:
P Horny is looking good, but might see less deployment when malkin and Galchenyuk come back.
I picked up Tanev to take over hits this week and it worked, but I’m not expecting points.
Kassian is enticing too. As long as he stays on the top line, he’s got good value.
Lucic is a barren wasteland in my eyes.
