WW Pick-ups - who ya got? [REP]

[evans334]

Evansville Icemen team in the sig.

I will have the opportunity to make 3 waiver wire claims in the near future once our league re-opens the claims.

I can drop 2 players down to the minors, those indicated with an (m) are eligible for the minors..

I'm thinking for sure grab Sorokin, but of the remaining I've listed below, who would you pick?

Noah Dobson (m)
Rasmus Sandin (m)
Ville Heinola (m)
Nils Lundkvist (m)
Ty Smith (m)
Juuso Valimaki (m)

Kaapo Kahkonen (m)
Alexei Melnichuk (m)
Ilya Sorokin

[Eskimo Brother]

One of Dobson or Sandin for me. Upside combined with the fact they're in the NHL already.

[PenguinHunter]

Yes, Sorokin for sure.

After that I would pick Sandin and Heinola.

Maybe I'm missing something, but in a start 2G, you have 2 starters and two very good 1As (Shestorkyn and Elvis). And start 6D, and you have 5 D in your entire system. Dobson and Sandin. You need players that can play now, IMO.

My 9 keepers are set so i'm looking to grab players that I can stash on my farm, or use as trade leverage / replacement.

I'll grab Sorokin to see if I can trade him, or use Hellebucyk to land an elite player.

The other two claims will be used for two players that I can drop down to my farm and stash.

Agreed, I need players that can produce now, but these are also basically free pickups, so I'm looking for BPA.

[Bubba55]

Agreed, Sorokin for sure. I also like Sandin. My opinion only, but Nils Lundkvist could be the best of the bunch, but it will be a wait, however, if your stashing him on the farm you can afford to wait.

[mjm44]

Sorokin for sure, i also am high on heinola and dobson, dobson only concern is tortz

[LuigiC173]

if you can wait another year Lundkvist, then Sandin.
