    Default 4th and final keeper. Rantanen or Svechnikov

    12 team league on yahoo.
    We start 2c 2rw 2lw 4d and 2 g, 4 bench spots.
    Goals 6, assists 3, shots .25, pim .5, +/- 1
    Win 6, SO 6, saves .25, goal against -1
    Pastrnak, panarin and shesterkin are the first three keepers.
    I realize shesterkin will lose starts next year due to the shortened season but want to keep him for future years.
    I think svechnikov should be the final keep over rantanen but it's real close, right?

    My opinion, I would keep both over Shesterkin. But I understand your hesitation.

    With your setting Svechnikov over Rantanan.

    Welcome to the forums.

    In a 2G start system I'd also keep Shesterkin for the long term. As I've said many times, when it comes to these limited keepers (especially one this small) you're always going to lose players you hate to lose. I'd keep Svechnikov over Rantanen here.

    With goals weighted double assists Svech is an the right choice IMO.
    I'd also hang on to Shesterkin

    Gotta agree with the majority here, keeping Shesterkin is a good move and I also prefer Svech over Ratanen in your format.

    I'd also keep Svechnikov.

    In many ways, limited keepers leagues are annoying, due to feeling punished the year after you draft well. Yes, you get a bit of a leg up on people who don't have quite so good keepers, but I tend to find that I want to either have the fun of drafting anyone, or keeping a whole team.

    As usual I agree with Axe here. The goals bonus makes Svech the right choice.

    Agreed with all, keep Shesterkin & Svechnikov. As good as Rantanen is, he is playing with a world class play driver in Mackinnon. I see Svechnikov as a play driver as well.

    I think svech will come close in points to Raantanen in due time...let alone the goals.
