    I doubt that there are many teams who are holding 2 goalies in a keep 7, but given the age of the other two players I suspect that Binnington (if Husso gets moved) would be the most valuable player production wise and trade value wise.
    Because both the other guys are over 30 and your keepers look like you are still a while from being competitive for a title, I would keep Backstrom because I think he will outpoint Granlund.

    Edit:
    Wasn't up to date on Backstroms injury. Keep tabs on it and he may very well be your drop.

    I also drop Backstrom here. I'm hoping for your sake that it's a huge league.

    The hip injury to Backstrom is a tad worrisome. Do you not have any other options other than these three?

    I didn't actually know about Backstrom's injury, haha. That makes it an easy decision!

    This is a league I'm brand new to and I'm taking over a weak team (16 teams overall). I'm already on my way to improving my minors and keepers. Just gave Ovechkin to get Suzuki & Cozens and also gave a 7th to get Binnington & Frost. I'll keep putting away over the summer and I feel confident I can set my team up well to compete in a year or two from now.

    REP left to you fine folks. Thanks!

    I hate Binnington, but that is beside the point. He has to be one of the two to stay. I think I would keep a hold of Granlund as well as you look at Backstrom and the last 3 seasons he has not played a full season and his point production keeps going down.
