Team in my signature.
12 team H2H Keeper going into Season 2 this fall.
Next year we will have the following settings:
Skaters: G,A,P,PPP,PIM,+/-,SOG,FW
Goalies: W,GAA,save %,shutouts
3C, 3LW, 3RW, 2UTIL, 5D, 2G, 7 bench
Our keepers aren\'t due until August 1st, so I have time to see what happens in Anaheim with Hiller.
Which 12 do you keep?
Any other general thoughts on my team. I\'d love to package Stastny with one of my goalies for a better winger, but not sure what interest there might be.

Trade Stastny - looking like a BAB and people will pay premium. In fact, if you can get a 2nd rounder for him you can then keep Berglund. Essentially, you would be getting Berglund and a 2nd for Stastny. Your league is similar to one of my leagues and if I remember correctly, I drafted a Voracek-type with that pick.

Did you mean to throw Pacioretty in here first in both groups or did you leave him out intentionally??
Pacioretty
Purcell
Gerbe
S.Kostitsyn
Matthias
Can you list these guys in order in which you would want them:
1)next year

2)long-term
Dobber\'s reply:

Thank YOU. I did this last summer and said that I would like to keep doing it...but the problem is in this business, you get absolutely overwhelmed with stuff for about two weeks...and then you get two weeks of light duty...and so on back and forth. So the problem was - my light duty weeks I just wanted to take a breather :lol:This year was the Steve Mason/Pekka Rinne battle, who will be next season\'s fantasy rookie of the year?
This is the coolest idea EVER! I\'m so glad I got back early from my exam otherwise I woulda missed out on this. Thanks a lot in advance Dobber, your dedication never ceases to amaze me.
Next year - I would have to look at the eligibles and study them, but off the top of my head I think Tavares and Hedman will battle it out, as will Filatov - who will depend on whether Hitch gives him a chance, and Caputi - who will depend on whether the Pens give him a spot and Varlamov. Hodgson should be good for 50 points, which would be a consideration I\'m sure. I don\'t think JVR will get the ice time in Philly next year. Dark horses are Grachev and Gerbe.

Wish I knew! This is another one that needs careful study. I haven\'t analyzed this past season\'s numbers yet - I usually start that in late April, so shortly.Who are your big breakout players for next season?
Off the top of my head I really like Jordan Staal to break out and get 65. Voracek and Giroux will take the next step. It\'s about time we saw Kopitar get to 90. James Neal is another name that jumps out.

McDonald, Ribeiro, O\'Sullivan and Koivu.Hi Dobber,
Keeper league, points only. I\'d love to compete next year but am also keeping an eye to the future. At F we dress 2C, 2LW, 2RW so wingers are more valuable than centers.
Which 4 forwards should I keep for next year?
M.Koivu
A.McDonald
M.Ribeiro
A.Kostitsyn
P.O\'Sullivan
K.Huselius
P.Bouchard
And a similar question at D. Points only, plus a bonus point for PPP. What\'s your ranking? I can keep only 3.
K.Letang
M.Streit
J.Pitkanen
M.Zidlicky
B.Coburn
K.Quincey
Thanks, in advance.
Letang, Streit for SURE. The other one is tough - try Pitkanen.
