    Default Who to drop to make room for Zibanejad?

    I just read that Zibanejad will be in the lineup tomorrow night against the Isles. Who should I drop to clear room? I'm thinking it's one of Kadri, Cirelli, Oshie, or Kubalik. With how many wingers I have (and so few centers), I'm leaning towards Oshie or Kubalik so I can maximize more starts at Center.

    Oshie for me. Kubalik is someone I dont expect to be all that great this year but he's someone I'd want to hold on to.

    You only keep 9 so would likely drop Kubalik unless you may think about keeping him beyond this year.

    Good points on Kubalik. I don't plan on keeping him next year. But I have thought about holding onto him to package into a trade later this season (something like my 7th - 9th best keeper / fringe keeper + Kubalik for an upgrade at one of my keeper spots). Kubalik probably has more trade value, but I wonder how much Oshie out produces Kubalik this year.

    I would drop cirelli... offers the least outside of points, doesn't shoot or hit a whole lot.

    I would not drop Kubalik. last year his quarter over quarter numbers increased almost exponentially.
