I don't see any point micro-managing a team after one H2H match.
Revisit after Week4.
So, throwing this out there. If you ran my team (team/league details in sig), what changes would you make? I'm not likely a favourite to win, but should be competitive this year, and am hoping to have a shot at winning the next few years. What positions would you plan to upgrade? What players would you potentially target? And why? Positive and negative feedback welcome. Appreciate your thoughts.

yeah you're fine and that roster should have you in the mix competing, though I havent seen the other teams.
Right now LW looks like it drops off after Svechnikov but Pastrnak and Teraveinen--along with all your dual-wing eligible guys--will give you flexibility and make that better sooner than later.

G is the only light area I see....after Price, Murray is on a bad team and Shesterkin/Koskinen are young guns trying to prove enough to hold onto their spots. Plus they are also on mediocre teams. We might have thought the Rangers, in particular, would be better, but they have not shown it yet. EDM is what they've been for quite a while now, explosive offensively, but leaky defensively. I'm willing to invest in the young guns since they are both talented, but if you could upgrade Murray that would help.

Very solid team.
Love your keeper set... although admittedly it's missing a bit of truculence based on your cats. (For the year you look well covered)
If there was an area to "improve" - that would be it imo... but I actually think you're fine to compete moving forward with that keeper set and some strategic drafting.

Your team is in fairly good shape.
Look to see what's out there to upgrade your RW, or find a a winger with dual eligibility. Might require you to move Kotkaniemi for it.
This.
With PIM, HITS and BLKS, a little more truculence would set you up nice. Svech is very nice but adding Kane, a Tkachuk, or similar would seem to do wonders for your team. Without seeing the other rosters, hard to say what those teams need, but I would expect - and would be willing - to pay a steep price to grab someone like that as a keeper.
And yeah, your goaltending after Price is hoping that either Shesty comes good.
but a very nice team to work with. Good job so far.
I'd love to grab a youngish but established power forward ie. B/M Tkachuk, Wilson, etc. But they're tough to come by, and the GMs who have them hold on tight. Would likely require a significant overpay. I was generally able to address my "toughness" through the draft, but would love to nail down a permanent keeper or two to fill that gap. Any thoughts on up-and-coming prospects to consider?

In a 12 team league, you should be happy with what you assembled. Maybe trade Pulock or Koskinen if/when they get hot, as I don't trust either one long term. But otherwise trust what you have.
