    Default Pick up Teravainen or Laine, or both?

    Both are tempting adds. But I have spent far too many moves already this season so I don't want to pull the trigger unnecessarily. Both were on my team before they were injured, so I am tempted to add one or both back in. But who to drop? Seems like Reinhart, Kempe, Nelson, Burakovsky and Kopitar are the bottom of my roster. Kempe is getting me some hits and the others get me PPP. Reinhart started slow but he seems to be heating up. Would Turbo or Laine be a good add for any of those?

    Thanks guys. Will rep.

    The moves limit complicates this for me. Laine is a guy who constantly gets injured so you may need to burn more moves filling his roster spot when he's out. Turbo has also been out and not having a good year last time I looked. The bottom guys of your roster are pretty good. Some of them aren't guys I'd take over Laine in a vacuum, but with the moves limit I think I might stand pat and/or just choose one of the two that you like more. For me it's probably Laine despite the headaches.

    I think I would have to take a chance on Laine with his explosive offensive upside.

    No blocks, I might actually be tempted to drop Sandin and then find another D down the road.

    Not a bad idea to drop Sandin. I don’t mind rolling 3 D’s even though we can start 4. Even if I have to bench an extra F from time to time I typically get more out of two additional starts from a F than three from a D.
