    Default Safe to drop Logan Thompson

    It seems a safe bet to drop him, despite Hill not exactly killing it right now. I'd love to use the spot, Grubauer's as well, to stream since neither is playing much.

    The only thing that gives me pause is what you said, Hill isn’t killing it right now either. Until one of them figures it out, I could see Vegas still giving both of them shots to play. I’d probably be more likely to drop Grubauer to open a streaming spot since the Kraken are not as good of a team.

    Totally agree with Ref's caution here... but that said, in a 10-team league, you'd have to think you could cycle in a different G if needed anyways.

    So in your case, I'd say yes - safe to drop and stream both.

    When we're talking about all these flakes there is always some risk and potentially severe ass pain, it's just the way it is. I too would think that in a 10-team league there would be viable streaming options available that would allow you to drop one or possibly both Hill and Grabauer. Personally, I would drop Grabauer and see how things go. If Hill continues to struggle and you have other options, then maybe you ditch him as well. I would not risk dropping them both at once, that might have the potential to blow up on you.

    In last 9 games since injury Grubs has combined sv% of over .925. While he played 9 games in last 40 days or so , when he does play he produces lately. So to me, i would drop Hill first even tho he is on better team. Vegas is also trying to make sure they keep that playoff spot so they will play hot hand. I think Thompson has been better lately than Hill.

    That’s definitely the risk here. Vegas doesn’t have a guy running away with the job at the moment, so picking one of their starters and dropping him has a potential to really backfire (case in point Thompson had a good game today).

    OP what streaming options are available for you? That could help give a better answer here.
