    Default Keeper Advice Needed

    Hello everyone,

    I am not going to make it into the playoffs, so I figured I'd choose my five keepers for next season and try to trade the rest for some early round draft picks. Our draft starts with Round 6.

    My present keepers are:
    Huberdeau
    Stamkos
    Pettersson
    Kucherov
    Price

    I'm thinking of replacing Pettersson with a winger, and Price with Sorokin.

    Problem is, I have a lot of great potential keepers.

    Seguin
    Hintz (PPG when playing. Will he be just as good, if not better, next season when healthy?)
    DeBrincat
    Hamilton
    Lehner (going to try and trade him to the MAF owner as he is lacking in goalies. Our draft starts at Round 6. Which pick could I potentially get for him?)

    Which five do I go with, and which round draft picks can I target with the other players?

    Thanks for the help.

    I'd be replacing somebody with Hamilton. He leads Carolina in SOG, and gets about a hit & block per game. I'd also probably look to keep DeBrincat over Stamkos, due to youth & health.

    Shop the guys you want to deal, and simply take the best offer you get. Every league is different when it comes to paying for players for a title push.

    Possible Keepers then:

    Seguin
    Hintz
    Huberdeau
    DeBrincat
    Kucherov
    Hamilton
    Sorokin

    How would you rank these 7 keepers for the next 3 years?

    Do you have to keep a goalie? If not, I wouldn't keep Price (or any of your goalies for that matter), and keep 5 skaters instead.

    Kucherov, Pettersson, Huberdeau ... those 3 are the no brainers, they should be locks for you.
    Hamilton, Stamkos, DeBrincat ... I would pick your next 2 out of these 3. I would be ok keeping any of them; See what the best offer is for any of them and sell the one that nets you the best return.
    Fiala, Necas, Hintz, Price, Lehner, Lindholm ... They should be able to net you some kind of compensation for teams going for it.

    That's my 2 cents at least.

    I would also take Stammer over Hintz. Hintz is a good player, but this year's constant game time decision injuries is extremely worrisome and not something I'd invest heavily in.

    I'd keep:
    Pettersson
    DeBrincat
    Huberdeau
    Heiskanen or Hamilton
    Kucherov

    Immediate shops:
    Hintz - Sell him while he's performing
    Stammer
    Necas
    Fiala
    Heiskanen or Hamilton (whoever you don't keep)
    Sorokin
    Seguin
    Lehner
    Lindholm

    The rest of the guys I left out I personally don't think you'll get much for so it doesn't seem worthwhile to try and convince another team to take them on.

    I like both Lehner and Sorokin over Price in a league where "wins" are the only goalie counting stat (shutouts are more random).
    Kucherov, Huberdeau, Pettersson, Debrincat, and Hamilton would be my top 5 skaters (not Stamkos or Seguin due to age and injury, not Heiskanen until he proves he's a top D in fantasy).
    I would recommend going with Kucherov, Huberdeau, Pettersson, Hamilton, and Debrincat as keepers if you think Sorokin or Lehner will still be there when you draft. If not, I would keep Sorokin or Lehner over Debrincat.
    In terms of value, any of the guys I just listed plus Seguin and Stamkos would be top 60 guys and potential keepers for other teams, so push for a 6th+ (maybe take a 7th if you feel certain they won't be kept).
    For Price, Provorov, Heiskanen, Fiala, push for a 7th or 8th.
    But every league has a different dynamic when it comes to draft capital.

    I agree with the above. And of the last three keepers, I would probably go with DeBrincat and Hamilton. And see what Stamkos can get you the trade market.
