    Default Who to drop for IR players returning? Big decisions!

    I'm looking for a little advice on who to drop as a number of my players are coming back from the IR. I'm 6th out of 12 right now and after a pretty poor start, I'm slowly getting back into the race. I am hoping to make a push and I have some key decisions to make.

    Klingberg, Lehner and Bjorkstrand are all back - the question is who I bring back now and who I might leave on the IR for the time being. I do not have many pick ups left for the season (5), so I am not opposed to keeping players on the IR.

    I'm in a 12 team H2H, 1 year, set lineup weekly, start 2C 2 RW 2 LW 4 D 3 Util 2 G. Cats are G A +/- PPP PIM SHP SOG W SV% GAA SO.

    C - MacKinnon, Pettersson
    LW - E Kane, Marchessault
    RW - Marner, Arvidsson
    D - Carlson, OEL, DeAngelo, Pulock
    Util - Monahan, Danault, Bertuzzi
    G - Andersen, Markstrom
    Bench - Keller, Dumba, Dvorak
    IR - Lehner, Marchessault, Bjorkstrand

    Dumba and one of the Arizona players are what I am thinking (carrying two players on a low scoring team doesn't seem like the best idea). Danault was a recent pick up but that line has been clicking of late. Bertuzzi is another possibility.

    I am also wondering whether I leave Klingberg on the IR for now but dropping Dumba would mean that I don't leave myself a spare D. I think I need Lenher off the IR while the Andersen is spiralling and Bjork looks to be picking up right where he left off.

    Any ideas you have are appreciated! Will rep!

    I’m not buying any Arvidsson stocks this year. I’d be dropping him.
    I’d probably drop Dumba for Klingberg in your format.
    Then either Danault or Bertuzzi, and I’d be using the same night tool to figure that one out.

    I don't see Klingberg on your IR? If so then yes Klingberg over Dumba

    Activate Lehner and Bjorkstrand, drop Arvidsson and I'm thinking Bertuzzi

    Thank you for the advice!

    I made the move to drop Dumba and Bertuzzi. I am going to try trade Arvidsson if at all possible, but if I'm unable by the weekend, then I will be dropping him as well.

    Totally forgot to list Klingberg above, my bad!
