    Default Ristolainen dropped....who to drop for him.

    Risto was dropped and in a "banger" league he's gold. Problem is, I have 4 players, all closely ranked and I'm not sure which one to drop. None are bangers, but all are point producers and you still need points to win. I think Teravainen will out-point the rest personally. None have any keeper implications and it's too late to form a trade as Risto is a FA tomorrow. Side note: We start 3 D, but we added a utility spot this season.
    Boeser (Not sure what to expect in yr 2) * The only single position player of the 4
    Keller (Off to a decent start)
    Ehlers (B2B 60 point seasons)
    Teravainen (I think he equals or beats last season's #'s)

    10 team H2H !Y League (4 keepers - at least 1 must be a D-man OR Goalie)

    Boeser. All these guys are good but if you want Risto something has to give. We are seeing a start to a sophomore slump here, whether that continues remains to be seen but of these four, I think Boeser finishes with the lesser offensive numbers.

    OMG, you have a tough decision in fron of you. Boeser or Ehlers I think... if Boeser continue playing on a line with the phenom Pettersson, he could pick his game up and score more than 30 goals and 20+ ppp. There is a risk either way. Im dropping Ehlers probably.

    I believe Boeser will get over the issues he's going through so I would drop Ehlers if you really had to.

    Ristolainen is good but you'll be eating up alot of minus though

    +/- has never really been a concern on any of my teams, my +/- isn't so great to start with. But it's between Ehlers and Boeser for me as well. Damn this is tough.

    Ugh, this is hard. The Mooseheads and Jets fan in me says keep Ehlers, but he's so streaky it's hard to depend on him. I think because of that, plus the depth of Winnipeg's scoring (and the incompetency of the coaching here) means I would drop him and keep Boeser. Don't envy you at all in this one though...

    Who did you go with?
    32 Team Keeper League
    Dynasty, unlimited prospects.

    Current roster:
    Centers: Hintz, Eichel, Zegras, M. Barron, Schiefele.
    Wingers: T. Thompson, Teravainen, Slafovsky, Duchene/J. Benn
    Defencemen: Q Hughes, , Hamilton, Fowler, Borowiecki, Liljegren
    Goalies: F. Andersen, Conor Ingram, M. Murray
    Farm: Egor Sokolov, Jett Woo,
    Skater points: Goals, Assists, +/-, PiMs, GWG, Points
    Goalie points: Ws, GAA, SV%, SHO

    All the talent Ehlers has is simply buried in WPG. Keep Boesser
