    Default Made a mistake, now gotta fix it. Drop McDonagh for who?

    So a while ago I was faced with the decision of dropping barrie goligoski or mcdonagh

    decided on barrie out and now regretting that big time. Especially since mcdonagh is hurt.

    I don't have high hopes for him the rest of the year especially since it is the same shoulder too.

    So, should I drop mcdonagh for Fowler, Vatanen, Edler, Garrison, Hamilton, Stralman, E. Johnson, Zidlicky, Severson, Ehrhoff


    Or would you keep McDonagh on ir (already have Krug here) ? My gut is saying one of the Anaheim boys but I am puzzled on my D this year


    any input appreciated and rep coming your way

    league and cats in signature.

    In a one-year league I'd drop him. Separated shoulders are not fun to come back from (I've done it twice), it could be 4-5 months before it feels normal again.

    I'm with you, I like both the Ducks guys. I think they will both be pretty close by the end of the year, so I'd go with your gut. Personally, I like Fowler a bit more (More experience, I think Vatanen will hit a slump at some point) but I don't think you go wrong with either.

    Yeah, I'd drop him for Vatanen. He'll be out 3-4 weeks but I read the feeling around the Rangers org is it could be longer and with separated shoulder injuries, it could easily be 2 months before he's back healthy and producing.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    so between fowler and vatanen who is better. Vatanen worries me in the sense that he only has PP points. wheras fowler has both.

    proven over probable or pick sexy and may take a hit?

    The AHA guys are safe bets, but don't count out Stralman. The guy is on the #1 PP in TBL and the coach is giddy with the way he's playing. Fowler and Vats are both on our FA list and I'm keeping Stralman.
    C: Kopitar, Jarvis (RW), Thomas
    RW: Wilson, Bratt (LW), Zuccarello, Svechnikov (LW)
    LW: B. Tkachuk, E.Kane, Boldy (RW)
    D: Matheson, Rielly, Dahlin, Burns
    G: Shesterkin, Vasilevskiy, Kochetkov
    IR+


    10 Team H2H, one year, G, A, +/-, PPP, PIM, HIT, W, SVP, GAA, SV
    Start 2C, 2LW, 2RW, 4D, 2Util, 2G

    I would, keep Mcdonagh and move him to IR. Drop Krug and pick up Erik Johnson.

    But what happens to Stralman when Hedman comes back? H e may lose some PP time depending on how TB decides to play it. They may use 4 forwards and Hedman.

    10 team H2H !Y League (4 keepers - at least 1 must be a D-man OR Goalie)
    Start - 2C, 2L, 2R, 1U, 3D, 2G, 6Bench,​ 2IR, 2IR+ (Daily) (5 moves per week)

    I like Vatanen better. He'll be a fixture on the top PP, I think and the EV points will come.

    Vatanen - do not underestimate the value of top line PP time.
