F. Forsberg and T. Wilson

[Maverick060283]

At this point can I afford to drop either? They've been my colder players over the last 30-45 (let's be honest Fors has been a bust all year), I'm trying to use the spots to pick up some man games and build on some roto cats. The squad is strong are they my weakest links at the moment?

I mean dropping Forsberg and his eight games over the next two weeks doesn't make much sense. Wilson has seven, so unless you're adding a better player, then you're not likely doing much better than him either.

What are the options on the wire?

[Maverick060283]

Good point, forgot to look at the schedule (apparently I need a coffee haha)... I guess I'm trying to determine a couple of bodies on my roster that I could expose to the wire/ use for roster flexibility. The streaming of players/ goalies really has seemed to work the last bit, I've whittled 11 pt lead in roto down to about 5 over the last week and a half. Finally have pushed the stacked team in first, which no one was able to do all year, and they've woken up started making roster moves to compensate for my aggressiveness.

As it stands I've have 32 days and I'm 5 pts back... trying to make a valiant last minute run at a championship

Are there no GP limits?
And what stats can you make up the most ground in?

Shockingly no... hence the aggressive streaming! no max on weekly moves as well (which I stumbled upon couple weeks back hence the change in strategy, we used to use max 5 or max 7)

If you have zero move limits I would be streaming multiple players every day. Having 7 games a week targeted at whatever categories you need should be better than whatever skaters are at the bottom of your roster.
Also, how many teams do you have?

[Maverick060283]

Exactly what I've been trying to do! Tomorrow I'm two d-men short (my other post) so to add both Keith and Dumba, I could use one of Smith or Koskinen (whichever plays today, using the other as starter insurance for either Fleury or Varlamov tomorrow) and then I'm thinking Wilson/ Palmieri/ Forsberg for the 2nd D-Man

If there really are no limits on moves and no GP limit then you should simply add 3-4 skaters every single night, maximizing your roster. It's kind of a cheap tactic but it will work.

[Maverick060283]

Who would you identify as my most flexible/ droppable pieces?

[LawMan]

Forsberg
Palmeiri
Wilson - (I think you're 1st in PIMs)

[Maverick060283]

Yeah temporarily ahead by 25ish pims, so those guys in that order?

[Eskimo Brother]

Forsberg
Palmeiri
Wilson - (I think you're 1st in PIMs)

I'm assuming this order means keep Forsberg longest, and drop Wilson first (that would be my order).

thumbs up!
