    Default Early Keeper Help

    Yahoo 10 Team H2H Keep 5 (3 forwards, 1D, 1G or 2D) + 2 prospects (less than 81 GP). I'm just having some trouble deciding on who my last keeper will be.
    Categories are G, A, PPP, SOG, HITS, BLKS, W, SAVES, SV%

    My locks are:

    Mackinnon (C)
    Kucherov (RW)
    Carlson (D)
    Dahlin (D)

    Hart (G- Prospect)
    Makar (D-Prospect)

    Have to decide between Svechnikov (LW/RW) or M. Tkachuk (LW/RW). Im leaning Svech but any advice would be great!
    10 Team H2H Keep 3 + 2 Rookie (under 82GP)
    G, A, PPP, SOG, HITS, BLKS, FOWS, W, SAVES, SV%, GAA

    Wow, not an easy choice by any means.

    Just to be clear, you HAVE to keep 2D or at least 1G and 1D and with Hart being a rookie he doesn't count as your 1G?

    Go with Svechnikov. He has the higher point upside imo.

    Its either 1D 1G or keeping 2D instead of a goalie. I figured keeping Hart with his rookie eligibility would allow me to keep a goalie AND be able to keep Dahlin as my 2nd D. Keeping Hart as my 1G would leave me with Makar as my only rookie and Carlson as the only D.

    Gotcha. Makes sense. I was just trying to figure out the best way to keep both Tkachuk and Svechnikov but not sure I see that as a possibility with this setup.

    Im not sure there's a right or wrong answer to figuring out who the better keeper is. Both are so close in all categories you use and I'd say we are still scratching the surface on both. I can only hope most other teams are having the same issues trying to decide keepers as you are here.

    I usually suggest this in jest, but here, I think it actually fits. Grab a coin. Svech on heads, Tkachuk on tails. Give it a flip and let it ride. Good luck!

    Nice decision to have here with that kind of talent.

    If it's a dynasty league, I'd go Svechnikov. If it's a shorter term keeper, I'd go Tkachuk.
