A lot depends on scoring cats... but I like Pysyk and Olsen quite a bit.
I've accumulated an abundance of defenseman in the last half year in my dynasty keeper league and I'm looking to reduce the number.
Mark Pysyk (BUF) 2010, 7.5 C, WHL
Dylan Olsen (CHI) 2009, 7.5 C, NCAA
Sami Vatanen (ANA) 2009, 7.5 D, FIN
Shawn Lalonde (CHI) 2008, 7.0 C, OHL
Cameron Gaunce (COL) 2008, 7.0 C, AHL
Taylor Doherty (SJ) 2009, 7.0 D, OHL
Jake Muzzin (LA) 2007, 6.5 C, AHL
Out of these defenseman, who should I keep, who should I not, and even better than that, tell me why.
edit scoring categories:
G, A, P, +/-, PIM, PPP, GWG
no limit/restrictions on how long you can keep a player

I like Pysyk and Gaunce myself. The problem with Gaunce is that Colorado has a ton of talented D already so if you can't afford to be patient with him, maybe keep Olsen instead.

I really dont think any of them will be impact fantasy dmen realistically ( 40+ pts over numerous seasons). Maybe some will surprise but Id look elsewhere.
Pysyk
Doherty
Give Doherty lots of time. Hold him for at least 3 years if there is space for it.
