    Default Drop Varlamov or Ullmark for Merzlikins?

    My goalies are Ullmark, Sorokin and Varlamov. Merzlikins was dropped (before his shutout tonight).

    I was excited at the start of the year to own the Islander tandem, but the way things are going I think I might be better off with Merzlikins and dropping Varly. I could also drop Ullmark, or I could just keep what I have. What would your play be here? Thanks in advance!

    2 goalie roster spots, minimum 3 starts/week. Re-draft league.

    I wouldn't drop Ullmark. Only reason Swayman got the Sabres game is because Linus tweaked something or he would be the Bruins commanding the starts in Boston. Unfortunately he seems to have issues with health, so maybe...

    I’d still drop Varlamov over Ullmark but swayman got the start again today.

    With the Isles taking a Covid break, this makes a decent amount of sense now.

    Thanks for all the responses. I ended up dropping Ullmark for Merz. I decided to hang onto Varlamov and keep the handcuff with Sorokin. Hoping after this Covid break the Isles can get things turned around.
