    Default Can I drop Jack Hughes yet?

    What's his upside? I know we're all waiting for him to adjust to the game, and for NJ to adjust to the new players etc., But this guy contributes nothing fantasy wise. What's his upside for this year, pace wise? I feel like dropping him for de Haan would at least net me blocks and hits.

    I don’t think I’ve ever pick a 1st year player in a one-year league. Curious what you were expecting from him?

    Haha I wasn't sure. Every projection I saw had him at 70+. DB never lists peripheral stats right? Figured maybe he'd shoot more or something, center or not, and have a shot at 60 points.

    Yeah... Dobber had him for 72 points... but I grabbed him off the wire expecting 55. As long as he plays to that I'm happy. I grabbed him mostly for next year as a keeper tho... so depends on your league depth.
    Limited Keeper - Keep 5
    Auction draft with a budget of $600. Whatever is left becomes your acquisition budget for the season. At the end of the season 50% of your budget is carried over to the next year.
    Keeper players are taxed +$10 for forwards with over 75 pts. +$5 for forwards under 74pts. +$0 for forwards under 50pts.
    D = +$10 for 65pts +$5 for under 64pts +$0 under 40
    G = +$10 for 32W +$5 for under 31W & +$0 under 15W

    (G) (A) 25, (+/-) 5, (PIM) 3, (PPG) 7.5, (PPA) 5, (SHG) 10, (SHA) 7.5
    (SOG) 1 (W) 50, (L) -20, (GA) -5, (SV) 2, (SHO) 50

    Without any historical reason to hold onto a player, drop and move on. At this point you’re just holding hope for no reason other than projections.
