Pickup Klingberg off Wire?

[DzingelBarries]

My team is in my sig. I have two underperformers in my D corps and one young guy who may or may not stick. I'm inclined to hold both Barrie and Dumba thinking both are decent trade candidates in actual hockey so I'm hoping a potential change of scenery would jumpstart them.

If you saw Klingberg on the wire, are you dropping anyone in my sig line for him? Who and why?

I'm 2nd in my league in total points and currently in the playoff bracket.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

I know several teams are playing same night coming up: Tues/Thurs/Sat this week... and I think Mon/Wed/Fri next week with US Thanksgiving.
So you should check your forwards schedule and set it.
You'll know if you are benching somebody once or twice.

If anybody shows up benched twice in the next week, you should probably drop them.
Looking at your line-up... I think Tuch (being injured this year) is going to get buried on any free agent list.
I'd drop him for Klingberg.

(FWIW - Tuch can be a nice player to own... but he's slowly getting minutes back and hasn't been playing top two lines for VGK... so he's droppable, right now. Keep an eye on him though after you drop him.)

Pacing for 45 should be his floor. Dallas had a slow start and he has the ability to pace for 60ish. Deployment should be a non issue. Your cats are close to perfect for klingberg.

I'd drop Barrie or Dumba on the back end but I don't love that idea.

I lean towards dropping tuch for him as you're deeper up front.

I appreciate it! I'm trying to go heavy on forwards because Marner and Hintz are out which is counteracted by carrying no goalies. In this points-only league, I want to load up on forwards to get the most bang for my buck. I realize on nights like tonight, I'm benching 6 forwards but half of the other time I'm getting the benefit.

Tuch is the guy I had pegged for dropping for Gaudette who is blazing hot right now. However, Tuch looked good in his last game although he didn't score. Kilingberg may or may not be back next week.

Your input gives me a lot to ponder. Tonight, Tuch gets the woeful Leafs. I may hold through tonight and then make the move. Thanks, again.
