    Default Our free agent period is open, who to take?

    hi all
    our free agency period is now open. I can make one move between now and the season starting (then it is one pick up per week). I am currently against the cap so if I pick up anyone, I have to drop someone, so I guess this question ultimately comes down to whether I should make a swap or not. Here are the best projected goal-scorers left in our pool, based on Dobber's Draft List for this year,

    Lee (27 goals, $7 mill)
    Seguin (26 g, $9.85)
    Couturier (26 g, $7.75)
    DeBrusk (26 g $4)
    Nichushkin (25 g, $6.13)
    Olofsson (25 g, $4.75)
    Henrique (25 g, $5.83)
    Wheeler (24 g, $8.25)
    Rakell (23 g, $5)
    Danault (23 g , $5.5)
    Mikheyev (23g $4.75)
    Van Reimsdyk (23 g, $7)
    R. Smith (23 g, $5)

    The reason I am after goals, is because they are more important in our league than assists. Would you leave the team as is, or make a cut to add one of these players in this list?
    Thanks for any insight.

    Nichushkin had 25g... but in 62gp last year.
    And he really hit a stride down the stretch, playing 20min/gp in March (5g,6a in 13gp), April (6g,6a in 12gp), and playoffs (9g,6a in 20gp).
    Those are pretty stealthy stats.

    To accommodate him, you need to flex out somebody at $6.125m+... and the only guy that I'd consider is Ryan O'Reilly who is on the final year of a $7m contract.


    Nichu is injured right now... just putting his jersey on for camp.
    I would NOT make the move right now... just monitor him daily, how he's skating, who he's lining up with.
    He's probably not on COL PP1 (MacK, Lando, Rantanen, Makar)... but he could be...

    I'd probably save your move and wait until very, very, very close to COL opening game on Oct.12th.

    I was thinking about Nichushkin. I could in theory drop Konecny. With my current space, plus his salary it would just cover Nichushkin.

    Note that Coturier is likely to be out or less effective for much of the season, so scratch him off your list.

    I like Nichuskin & possibly Olofsson. I think I may prefer Konecny to Olofsson, though.
