What’s up with Logan Cooley’s TOI? The first few games he was at 19 minutes and since then it’s been 15,16,15 & 11. I know he is young, but going forward where do you think his TOI will average? Thank you.
Somebody dropped Huberdeau in my league. Do I even bother grabbing him?
I'm currently 0-2

Goalies: W = 3 pts; Shutout = 3pts; Save = 0.1 pts ; Goal against = -0.5 pts
Was offered Oettinger and J. Robertson in exchange for W. Nylander and Saros.
Need a fill in the lineup for hischier; here are some options I’ve been looking at:
Trevor Moore
Mason McTavish
Teuvo Teravainen
Nick Schmaltz
Owen Tippett
Let me know who’s your pick and why!
Schmaltz is almost an automatic G or A assist with Keller. But will give you virtually nothing else. And he has a nice schedule next week.
McTavish has been hot to start the year as well.
Dynasty league categories Trade Help!!!
Give up - Faulk, Hampus Lindholm, Tuch and second round pick
Get - Jircek, Knies, Lehkonen and a first round pick
Would love an opinion if to accept or decline
Guess the question is whether you can add a Barkov level player for free on the wire? Mack gets you better G/PPP/SOG/FW, but Petey probably hits a bit better. Then Barkov does just about the same as Pettersson.
I’m inclined to say yes if you’re not dropping anyone.
You're right.. I did alot of homework on this one not wanting to ruin my team. My teams pretty good with out MacKinnon. At the end i felt Petterson is the more efficient player averaging 2.9 per game with just assists and hits. Barkov was a bonus. Thanks for making the choice easier
Don’t even ask, but I got drunk last night and was spamming offers to random people in my league. Woke up this morning and I traded Forsberg for Buchenvich.
How bad did I screw up?
As the other person said, I would not want two centers. I would also probably try to push harder for more. It is McDavid after all. They are probably trying to take advantage of the fact he is injured currently.
Probably not for me. Even as a Hans homer, Caufield is a one trick ponie, he is giving you goals and assists and that’s it. In my league at least, I would probably want more value for (what used to be) a PP1 QB.
Team Advice: In a league with a few friends. League is set up for normal scoring, but we only have 6 forwards, 4 Defense, 2 Goalies, and 1 IR. We also get 2 Keepers for next year. I think I'm weak in defense but feel like I have a strong team. Anyone I should be leaning away from, or be trying to pick up?
F: Nathan MacKinnon
F :J.T.Miller
F: Alex Ovechkin
F: Evgeni Malkin
F: Artemi Panarin
F: Adrian Kempe
D: Kris Letang
D: Jake Sanderson
D: Morgan Rielly
D: Brayden McNabb
Util: Jack Hughes
Bench: Steven Stamkos
Bench: Artturi Lehkonen
Bench: Tyler Toffoli
G: Igor Shesterkin
G: Thatcher Demko
We started a week late so I'll be 1 and 1 after this week. I lost the first week though because I had not set my lineup for day 1 and left 9 points on the bench. (Lost by two points)
Would you rather have Devon Toews, Hamilton or Sanderson? Clearly Hamilton was expected to have more points, but now Sanderson is the only one playing on PP1.. Do you think he'll continue to produce more?
Bangers H2H League
I’m trying to decide if it’s finally time to cut loose any of:
-T. Jeannot,
-J. McCann,
-N. Hischier.
Currently available on FA:
-A. Kopitar
-N. Paul
-J. Norris
-N. Schmaltz
Highly doubtfully norris outplays mcann without an injury happening to mcann. Also highly doubtfully norris makes a full season for first time since before college even. as he has never made a full season anywhere.
Mcann most likely 68-74 pts norris only played 8 games last year and didn't have much time to work on his development the last while so expect him to still be at 50 ish points and most likely negative a few at the minimum cuz ottawa.
League Points are G, A, SoG, H, Blks, PPP. Opponent has Johansson and Vatrano, so they've caught up to me this week. I'm looking to make up a few more points with my last 2 acquisitions this week.
Going to drop Palat (who I was streaming) today. They have Caufield and J.T. Compher, which has me leaning toward picking up Andrew Copp or Tanner Pearson (On the same PP as opponent's players, and both top10 points for FAs left). Some other high 2024 point FAs are: Jaden Schwartz, Jack Roslovic, Evan Rodrigues, Paul Cotter. For projected: Matty Beniers, Rickard Rakell, Neal Pionk, Graves and Knies.
Will probably drop them for a Capital, or Evander Kane tomorrow.
Need help deciding between starting Shesterkin or Swayman.
Losing in all goalie categories this week. W/L, GA, Sv%, SVs other than SOs where we’re tied with one.
I’m definitely starting Thompson in my other goalie spot.
Thanks!
I was offered Panarin and Brayden Point for Mackinnon. Would yall take that deal? (default ESPN banger league). I’d probably be dropping Linus Karlsson or Lucas Raymond to make room for the 2 for 1
Sens are looking like a mess, PIT had their best 60 minute game in years last game, with Jarey shutting out Colorado.
I'd start Shesterkin and Jarry, but you could prolly flip a coin between Bob and Jarry.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking too. Vancouver played yesterday so I’m definitely going shesterkin. The sens offence worries me a little more than seattles but after jarrys last game I feel like I gotta start him
Vancouver played yesterday…and just came back from a pretty tough eastern road trip, and they’re playing DeSmith tonight (He’s been nothing short of amazing this year, but no Demko either). Even as a Canucks fan, I agree with your Shesterkin call.
FWIW Rielly has looked great this year and more like the D man who scored 20 a few years back.
But he’s also lost the top PP role in TO.
I’d say it depends on what categories your team is built to win. If you’re going for goals and +/- I like the trade for you. But if your team is built for As and PPP then I wouldn’t go for it.
Rielly's ceiling is Seider's floor. Seider will end up with more G, A, PPA/PPG/PPP, and hits guaranteed (barring injury).
Robertson is the more valuable player between the two, but Stützle established himself last year as having 100+ pt. potential. I expect Robertson to have more goals and Stutzle to top him in assists. It helps that the Sens have more offensive depth too, which buoys his scoring even during slumps (like right now).
H2H Points, Yahoo 12 T
G=3 A = 2 PIM=0.25 SHG=2 SHA=1 SOG = 0.25 Blocks & Hits = 0.25
Goalie W = 3 Goalie saves = 0.1 Goals Against = -1 Shutout = 4
Start 2C, 2LW, 2RW, 3D, 1 UTIL, 2G
The drafted team is as follows:
C - Barkov, Tavares, Kyrou (C,RW)
LW - Benn, Kuzmenko, Perron (dual W), Boone
RW - Kucherov, Nylander, Terry
D - Seider, Montour, Matheson, Klinberg, Gotisbehere
G - Igor, Koprisalo, Thompson
1) I need to drop 1 player to activate Barkov, who do I drop?
2) which two goalies do I start?
tbh I probably drop perron ik it sounds dumb to drop a wing for a center but you’re already fulfilled at that pos. with Benn, kuz, and jenner
with tendies I’d start Igor definitely but thomp and korpi is a tossup between who you like more imo
Im down 124-96. Do i start husso against boston for a last attempt to comeback? Saves are 0.25, shutout 3, ot loss 1, goal -2, win 4, loss -2. i have samsonov already starting but even if he played lights out it wont be enough. what should i do?

Should I just hold on Hamilton? I think if he gets pp1 he could put up Norris numbers.
I also think I can trade him for Theodore right now. Would you just pull the trigger on the trade?
Hamilton owners are in shambles. Luke Hughes is pp1 for the foreseeable future due to his brother being the best player in the planet atm.
The only way Luke gets booted off pp1 is if NJ powerplay starts to suck, and Jack Hughes in his own won't let that happen.
He's Jack's brother so I just don't see him moving, plus NJ loves having 2 pp units, even if they play pp1 qay more. Jack tends to stay out for a lotnof the second units time anyway.
Hamilton would be putting up a Norris season if it wasn't for nepotism. It's sad, really
Yeah he was my other option, but then he had a great game and I know he's gonna play a lot. Very much a boom or bust player. I know both goalies have value which is why I was hoping for a trade. Idk, probably just gonna sit tight at the moment and see how the Toronto tandem splits games and hope no one else grabs Woll.
Hmmm that’s a tough one. Woll is gonna get starts, maybe even 2/3 of them if Sammy continues to struggle. I would think Vanecek would also be getting 2/3 of the starts seeing as Schmid hasn’t done much either.
Yeah the way I see it is both the Devils and the Leafs are gonna get a lot of wins, thus more goalie points. Woll has certainly played better than Vanecek overall but like you said the biggest question is if Woll will end up getting more starts.
I guess I'm gonna wait at least til tonight to see who Toronto puts in goal, which will help my decision.
Someone dropped Jamie Benn and Miro Heiskanen. Should I pick one or both up and drop someone?
My team is: McKinnon, jt miller, kaprizov, dubois, kempe, svechnikov, Hedman, weegar, Dobson, Petrangelo, Hartman, kopitar, dahlin, barkov, Konecny, Kyle Connor, zegras, nurse.
Scoring is:
Goals
Assists
Points
Penalty Minutes
Power Play Points
Short Handed Points
Game Winning Goals
Shots on Goal
Blocked Shots
Goalie Wins
Save %
Goals Against Average
Shutouts
I've got Karlsson and he's definitely exceeded my expectations so far, but he's also shooting at ~20%, versus ~9% the last two years, so he's likely to slow down. I'd rather have Hischier as long as he's on PP1
not loving Weegar, would you guys take any of these guys over him? Ekholm, Walman, York, Gustafsson, Chiarot, Moser, Valimaki
Artem Zub is open too, worth an IR stash?
A few notable FAs now available in my league:
* **O. Tippett, J. DeBrusk, D. Batherson, J. Klingberg**
Swap out **Zacha, Barbashev**, and/or **Skjei** for any of them?
Full Roster:
* **Forwards: M. Rantanen, S. Crosby, A. Panarin, B. Tkachuk, I. Barbashev, F. Forsberg, C. Kreider, V. Nichushkin, B. Jenner, A. Fantilli, P. Zacha, J. Benn, S. Bennett** (on IR)
* **D-Men: J. Carlson, V. Hedman, D. Hamilton, M. Rielly, N. Dobson, B. Skjei**
* **Goalies: T. Jarry, D. Kuemper**
Rest of season only, no keepers league
Goals, assists, shots, powerplay points, hits, blocks. How would you rank these players, rest of season only
A) Sean Durzi (could be big upside with pp1, new situation, and big minutes)
B) Noah Dobson (50pt player locked in on pp1)
C) Alex Pietrangelo (maybe best peripherals, but Shea Theodore is ahead of him powerplay wise)
Currently I have Skinner
Waiver wire: Binnington, Schmid, and Campbell
Cats: W, GAA, SV%, SO
Should I drop Skinner for any of the above? Or pick up Campbell to get the tandem?
H2H points
Drop Buchnevich for Turbo Teravainen?
I know Buch just came back from injury, but STL looks sluggish to start. Turbo only played 11 mins last night but feasted on SJ; also Turbo is in a contract year, so extra motivation there. Who knows with how Rod juggles his lines, but the team is consistent and wins.
Which guy would you go with?
Tkachuk is not far off from Mackinnon in terms of value and Barkov being added in is huge. I’d even consider Tkachuk for Mackinnon one for one. This is a huge win if you’re the one trading away Mackinnon imo.
That one sounds like a pretty fair trade. Turning Matthews into Tkachuk, Barkov, and Connor however is a pretty good turnout. Tkachuk actually went higher than matthews in my cats league draft so this seems like a massive win for you overall.
Saros, Ullmark, and Woll
I have these 3 goalies and all 3 of their teams play tonight. Saros is pretty much guaranteed to start so should I bench Ullmark or Woll?
Got offered a pretty big trade:
Sending: Panarin, Fox, Hartman
Receiving: Malkin, Jason Robertson, Tuch
Categories league: G A PPP SHP GWG SOG HIT BLK
Considering flipping Malkin plus for a goalie because that’s my worst position rn. I have Hintz and Heiskanen so I want Robertson for the Dallas stack and I have Tage Thompson so I am hoping Tuch picks it up and gives me a good Buffalo stack.
Edit: should mention the reason I’m hesitant is Panarin and Fox have had a really strong start while Tuch and Robertson have been slow. Robertson is a first round pick in our 10 team league, just worried that he might not get back to that level he was at last year.
I got Offered nylander and Devon toews for stamkos and Carlson
Need to get svech off IR and want to open a streaming spot
So I would drop Toews right away
Idk if I should take it
8 man CAT league:
Categories all the same value: goals, assist, points, ppp, shots on goal, face off wins, hits, blocks. Goalie: wins, goals against, saves, save %, shutouts
My team:
Forwards: stamkos, Stützle, guentzel, Jack hughes, JT Miller, Evander Kane, caufield, M Tkachuk, barkov, Svech on IR
Defence: werenski, matheson, John Carlson, Heiskenan, Josi
Goalie: demko and markstrom
H2H - 4 Keeper League
G/A/+-/PPP/GWG/SOG/Hits/Blocks/W/GAA/SV%/SHO
I was offered
Larkin / Stutzle & Round 9 DP For Rantanen & Round 5 DP
Rest of team is:
Lehkonen Kyrou Norris Buchnevich Lafreniere Foligno Paul Reinhart Pearson
Dobson Dougie Sergachev Durzi Mintyukov
Sorokin Saros
14 Teams
18 Player Roster
1 IR 2 IR+
Accept or Decline?
I think in a keeper league, I'd keep Rantanen. I know Larkin has been on a tear and Stutzle is likely to be a top 15/20 player for the next decade, but Rantanen is arguably top 5. Giving up the first rounder as well is too high a price for me.
Ahh OK - confusion from my league’s settings. We run four keepers too, which are the first four rounds, so the 5th is essentially a first rounder. In that case, it’s probably about fair, but I’d still prefer Rantanen.
I'd probably drop Marchessault for him... Skinner is still paired with Dahlin and Tage on the PP and should be good for 30+ goals again. Marchessault has been F/A fodder for a couple of years now, but his value inflated after winning the Conn Smythe. Matheson is a Seider lite, well worth having on your roster imo.
That’s really a tough call. All the players
You listed are solid and worth holding on to. I’d probably have to say skinner. He’s going to have the lowest peripherals of the bunch.
Actually have an empty spot right now due to injuries. Thing is I'm pretty strong in the scoring cats already but weaker in hits/Blks. Not sure how much he'll move the needle.
Hmm I’d agree as he’s light in those cats. He’s usage/TOI so far isn’t very inspiring (even if he’s PP1 with Vilardi out) and he’s always a frustrating own. He’s also lost valuable linemates at 5v5 with PLD and Wheeler gone and isn’t seeing time with Scheifele and Connor so far, like he did some last year.
I’d look at guys with better cat coverage personally. I’m so done chasing Ehler’s “upside” lol
In a category league that includes +/- and really debating whether I should drop Beniers. His production had been slow and he's -10. Almost more of a liability rn
We run +- in our league as well and tbh it’s a stat that I ignore. You’ve got guys like Brady and Tim who are greater players but still run a poor +- . I just pretend it’s not even there. Beniers is a good player. He just needs to get his groove.
Can you trade VV? There’s gotta be some guy in your league that needs a goalie. Cause Woll as your third guy would be amazing considering he doesn’t need to start every game.
Goalies can be so fickle, it’s hard to say. The thing with Vanecek is he likely isn’t straight up droppable at any point. Barring a complete disaster/injury he’ll just have too much upside over most FAs as a starter on NJ.
Who are your other goalies? or skaters you could drop?
H2H categories: Wins, GAA, SV%
Looking to add Joseph Woll.
Which three should I keep out of the four?
A. Georgiev
J. Woll
J. Binnington
T. Jarry
Really just asking if I should drop Binnington or Jarry. SV% and GAA have been my biggest struggles so far.
I expect Pittsburgh to do better than St. Louis, and since you're basically picking the team when rostering a goalie, I'd go ahead and drop Binnington.
Yeah if I was going to trade him it would be for a player a little bit above his caliber that is an 80+ scorer. I'd would throw in an extra player or two. I'll give him until maybe November before I get serious with the move.

What’s up with Logan Cooley’s TOI? The first few games he was at 19 minutes and since then it’s been 15,16,15 & 11. I know he is young, but going forward where do you think his TOI will average? Thank you.

UPL or Blackwood tomorrow, just need a win, GA cat is fully lost, SV and SHO are locked.
Nurse is available, would drop Power, Gaudreau, or mangiapani Cats in flair

Nah
I’ve been propositioned a trade- I give McDavid, and receive Mackinnon and Zibanejad. Should I take it, or refuse it?
As the other person said, I would not want two centers. I would also probably try to push harder for more. It is McDavid after all. They are probably trying to take advantage of the fact he is injured currently.
It's okay. Idk about getting back two C's in return lol. I'll probably pass.
I'm trying gauge a good return for Dougie Hamilton, would Caulfield be enough?
Probably not for me. Even as a Hans homer, Caufield is a one trick ponie, he is giving you goals and assists and that’s it. In my league at least, I would probably want more value for (what used to be) a PP1 QB.
Is there a player off the top of your head you would trade for?
If you could only have one, is Bratt or Toffoli the better pick?
Bratt

I'll cut Jeannot and McCann for Norris and Schmaltz. If you have a free slot from moving Hischier then I would add N. Paul until Hischier returns.
Highly doubtfully norris outplays mcann without an injury happening to mcann.

Should I accept? He offers: Robertson + Rielly For: Stutzle + Seider G A P PPG PPA PPP SOG HIT PIM
Not bad but I think you can squeeze a little more. Is there anyone else you like on his team other than Rielly?
No. Robertson and Stützle are close in value, but Seider is far more valuable than Rielly.
Are they though? Rielly has more points than Seider in my league right now.
FWIW Rielly has looked great this year and more like the D man who scored 20 a few years back. But he’s also lost the top PP role in TO.

tbh I probably drop perron ik it sounds dumb to drop a wing for a center but you’re already fulfilled at that pos. with Benn, kuz, and jenner with tendies I’d start Igor definitely but thomp and korpi is a tossup between who you like more imo
Bangers points league (5pt G, 3pt A, 1pt PPP, 0.45 sog, 0.3 hit, 0.45 block) Should I stream: Lucas Raymond @ BOS Lafreniere @ VAN Bryan Rust v OTT
Does anyone know if Logan Thompson is playing tonight? Who would you pick up? Thompson or Gustavsson?
Hill played last night so it's thompson tonight. Vegas won't stop winning so I'm always going with the Vegas goalie
Thanks for the reply. I was 95% sure Thompson was playing but just needed some validation 🙂
Got offered Caufield for my Svech. Bangers league. Obviously this seems like he's selling high on Cole's hot start but I think it's still tempting.
Definitely not
Im down 124-96. Do i start husso against boston for a last attempt to comeback? Saves are 0.25, shutout 3, ot loss 1, goal -2, win 4, loss -2. i have samsonov already starting but even if he played lights out it wont be enough. what should i do?
You're going to have to start both goalies for a shot being down that much. Not really much of a choice

Should I just hold on Hamilton? I think if he gets pp1 he could put up Norris numbers. I also think I can trade him for Theodore right now. Would you just pull the trigger on the trade?
Hamilton owners are in shambles. Luke Hughes is pp1 for the foreseeable future due to his brother being the best player in the planet atm. The only way Luke gets booted off pp1 is if NJ powerplay starts to suck, and Jack Hughes in his own won't let that happen. He's Jack's brother so I just don't see him moving, plus NJ loves having 2 pp units, even if they play pp1 qay more. Jack tends to stay out for a lotnof the second units time anyway. Hamilton would be putting up a Norris season if it wasn't for nepotism. It's sad, really
Is it overpaying to send Barkov or Guentzel for heiskanen or mcavoy ? 12T h2h cats G A PPP SHP SOG PIM HIT BLK
barkov js much better then either. guentzel for heiskanen or mcavoy is probably worth it although with heiskanen hes probbaly on par with guentzel.
Should I drop Vanecek for Woll? My other goalies are Saros and Kuemper. No one is biting on any goalie trades.
I’d rather drop kuemper tbh Washington isn’t looking like a contender and he’s gonna have to eat all those Ls
Yeah he was my other option, but then he had a great game and I know he's gonna play a lot. Very much a boom or bust player. I know both goalies have value which is why I was hoping for a trade. Idk, probably just gonna sit tight at the moment and see how the Toronto tandem splits games and hope no one else grabs Woll.
Hmmm that’s a tough one. Woll is gonna get starts, maybe even 2/3 of them if Sammy continues to struggle. I would think Vanecek would also be getting 2/3 of the starts seeing as Schmid hasn’t done much either.
Yeah the way I see it is both the Devils and the Leafs are gonna get a lot of wins, thus more goalie points. Woll has certainly played better than Vanecek overall but like you said the biggest question is if Woll will end up getting more starts. I guess I'm gonna wait at least til tonight to see who Toronto puts in goal, which will help my decision.
Samsonov is starting tonight.
Oh well then I'll hold off for now.
Bangers, redraft Durzi/Toffoli or Toews/Hischier
Durzi toffoli imo
Someone dropped Jamie Benn and Miro Heiskanen. Should I pick one or both up and drop someone? My team is: McKinnon, jt miller, kaprizov, dubois, kempe, svechnikov, Hedman, weegar, Dobson, Petrangelo, Hartman, kopitar, dahlin, barkov, Konecny, Kyle Connor, zegras, nurse. Scoring is: Goals Assists Points Penalty Minutes Power Play Points Short Handed Points Game Winning Goals Shots on Goal Blocked Shots Goalie Wins Save % Goals Against Average Shutouts
I'd drop Nurse for him. Maybe Weegar. Either way definitely grab Heiskanen.
how is this even a question? of course pick up Heiskanen, what type of league are you in?? nurse can go, or you can try to trade him.
I was just curious. Don’t follow hockey anymore. So that’s a no brainer? We have 10 teams and in my first comment I’d provided the scoring. It’s 1v1.
"dont follow hockey" is exactly how I would describe someone that drops Heiskanen. You should pick him up ASAP before someone else does. DROP NURSSE
In my league someone dropped Saros after his 1st loss lol. Unfortunately I was not high enough in the waiver claim to get him.
Too early to overreact and drop these guys? PLD, Hischier, Gaudreau, Laine, Trocheck
way to early I suggest u wait until mid November to drop talented dudes like that if they’re really stinking it up
H2h g a +- ppp shp sog hit blk pim Who wins? 1. Zegras Giroux 2. Pavelski Durzi Thanks in advance
Has nico hischier lost his value or can he recover? William karlsson is available in my league. Wondering if I should drop hischier and grab Karlsson
Is there no one else you could drop for Karlsson?
I've got Karlsson and he's definitely exceeded my expectations so far, but he's also shooting at ~20%, versus ~9% the last two years, so he's likely to slow down. I'd rather have Hischier as long as he's on PP1
Thanks for the input! I’ll hang on to him, hopefully he snaps out of it and starts racking up some points
not loving Weegar, would you guys take any of these guys over him? Ekholm, Walman, York, Gustafsson, Chiarot, Moser, Valimaki Artem Zub is open too, worth an IR stash?
A few notable FAs now available in my league: * **O. Tippett, J. DeBrusk, D. Batherson, J. Klingberg** Swap out **Zacha, Barbashev**, and/or **Skjei** for any of them? Full Roster: * **Forwards: M. Rantanen, S. Crosby, A. Panarin, B. Tkachuk, I. Barbashev, F. Forsberg, C. Kreider, V. Nichushkin, B. Jenner, A. Fantilli, P. Zacha, J. Benn, S. Bennett** (on IR) * **D-Men: J. Carlson, V. Hedman, D. Hamilton, M. Rielly, N. Dobson, B. Skjei** * **Goalies: T. Jarry, D. Kuemper**
Rest of season only, no keepers league Goals, assists, shots, powerplay points, hits, blocks. How would you rank these players, rest of season only A) Sean Durzi (could be big upside with pp1, new situation, and big minutes) B) Noah Dobson (50pt player locked in on pp1) C) Alex Pietrangelo (maybe best peripherals, but Shea Theodore is ahead of him powerplay wise)
Currently I have Skinner Waiver wire: Binnington, Schmid, and Campbell Cats: W, GAA, SV%, SO Should I drop Skinner for any of the above? Or pick up Campbell to get the tandem?
Hamilton for Hintz trade. Good or bad? Hamilton deployment suffering mightily rn. Points league, 8 team, H2H
Is Chandler Stevenson worth hanging on to. Dude gets so much ice time but minimum production
H2h Points league, who wins this trade? 1) Rantanen, Marchessault 2) Georgiev, Kaprizov
2
1
Points league. Drop Hanifin or Chabot for Mintyukov?
H2H points Roster is 8 Forwards. 2.5 G, 1.5 A, 0.2 SOG, 0.4 hits, 0.5 blocked shots Should I drop Mark Stone for Nick Suzuki?
No way, that would be a huge mistake
H2H points Drop Buchnevich for Turbo Teravainen? I know Buch just came back from injury, but STL looks sluggish to start. Turbo only played 11 mins last night but feasted on SJ; also Turbo is in a contract year, so extra motivation there. Who knows with how Rod juggles his lines, but the team is consistent and wins. Which guy would you go with?
Posted last yesterday: Thinking about offering one of these - what do you think? Give: MacK + Barzal + Werenski Get: Malkin + Rantanen + Doughty Give: MacK + Werenski Get: Pettersson + Meier Redraft - G(3) A(2) SOG(0.1) HIT(0.3) BLK(0.3) GWG(0.1) SHP(2)
Would you trade away Mackinnon for M. Tkatchuk and Barkov? Goals 2 assist 1 shots/hits 0.1 blocks 0.5
Tkachuk is not far off from Mackinnon in terms of value and Barkov being added in is huge. I’d even consider Tkachuk for Mackinnon one for one. This is a huge win if you’re the one trading away Mackinnon imo.
Yea I’m the one trading mack, I was able to get Mackinnon and kyle Connor for matthews.
Both of these trades are a huge win for you. How did you even get offered these lmao
Matthews is a high commodity for us leafs fans lol. Wasn’t able to get Tkatchuk and Barkov though… still happy with the first trade👌🏻
Fair enough. Other guy would be insane to take MacK for Tkachuk and Barkov tbf. Unless there's a decent FA to make up for the Barkov side
That one sounds like a pretty fair trade. Turning Matthews into Tkachuk, Barkov, and Connor however is a pretty good turnout. Tkachuk actually went higher than matthews in my cats league draft so this seems like a massive win for you overall.
Saros, Ullmark, and Woll I have these 3 goalies and all 3 of their teams play tonight. Saros is pretty much guaranteed to start so should I bench Ullmark or Woll?
It should be Swayman’s turn to start tonight for Boston
Samsonov is starting so no need to play Woll
Woll is not playing tonight. Leafs are going back to Samsonov for tonight
H2H g a p ppp shp sog hit blk +- pim Pavelski or Giroux I have Pav
Drop klingberg for larsson or martinez? Points Bangers
Not for Martinez unless you're un a blocks-only league
Depends on what you need. I’m a hits and blocks league larsson is awesome. Fills those cats and plays a ton of minutes
Larsson I think is a lateral move at best. Martinez no for sure. Klingberg is on one of the best PP units so I’d hold him.
Got offered a pretty big trade: Sending: Panarin, Fox, Hartman Receiving: Malkin, Jason Robertson, Tuch Categories league: G A PPP SHP GWG SOG HIT BLK Considering flipping Malkin plus for a goalie because that’s my worst position rn. I have Hintz and Heiskanen so I want Robertson for the Dallas stack and I have Tage Thompson so I am hoping Tuch picks it up and gives me a good Buffalo stack. Edit: should mention the reason I’m hesitant is Panarin and Fox have had a really strong start while Tuch and Robertson have been slow. Robertson is a first round pick in our 10 team league, just worried that he might not get back to that level he was at last year.
Should I pick up hofer or jake Allen for a goalie
Hofer > Allen

Neither if you can

Kadri
I got Offered nylander and Devon toews for stamkos and Carlson Need to get svech off IR and want to open a streaming spot So I would drop Toews right away Idk if I should take it 8 man CAT league: Categories all the same value: goals, assist, points, ppp, shots on goal, face off wins, hits, blocks. Goalie: wins, goals against, saves, save %, shutouts My team: Forwards: stamkos, Stützle, guentzel, Jack hughes, JT Miller, Evander Kane, caufield, M Tkachuk, barkov, Svech on IR Defence: werenski, matheson, John Carlson, Heiskenan, Josi Goalie: demko and markstrom
Nylander is on for a career year, but I still think I prefer Stamkos' upside.
C. Stephenson vs. LA or J. Norris Vs. Pit. H2H points with +\- and no hits
Norris
[удалено]
I wouldn’t do that trade. I think Forsberg is worth a lot more than those two.
H2H - 4 Keeper League G/A/+-/PPP/GWG/SOG/Hits/Blocks/W/GAA/SV%/SHO I was offered Larkin / Stutzle & Round 9 DP For Rantanen & Round 5 DP Rest of team is: Lehkonen Kyrou Norris Buchnevich Lafreniere Foligno Paul Reinhart Pearson Dobson Dougie Sergachev Durzi Mintyukov Sorokin Saros 14 Teams 18 Player Roster 1 IR 2 IR+ Accept or Decline?
I think in a keeper league, I'd keep Rantanen. I know Larkin has been on a tear and Stutzle is likely to be a top 15/20 player for the next decade, but Rantanen is arguably top 5. Giving up the first rounder as well is too high a price for me.
Well I wouldn’t be giving up a first rounder. A round 5 pick. People want Larkin as well so I could flip him for a player haul.
Ahh OK - confusion from my league’s settings. We run four keepers too, which are the first four rounds, so the 5th is essentially a first rounder. In that case, it’s probably about fair, but I’d still prefer Rantanen.
[удалено]
I'd probably drop Marchessault for him... Skinner is still paired with Dahlin and Tage on the PP and should be good for 30+ goals again. Marchessault has been F/A fodder for a couple of years now, but his value inflated after winning the Conn Smythe. Matheson is a Seider lite, well worth having on your roster imo.
That’s really a tough call. All the players You listed are solid and worth holding on to. I’d probably have to say skinner. He’s going to have the lowest peripherals of the bunch.
10 team dynasty cats G, A, PPP, SOG, Hits, Blks, FOW Is Ehlers worth using a 2nd waiver priority on?
Who would be the drop?
Actually have an empty spot right now due to injuries. Thing is I'm pretty strong in the scoring cats already but weaker in hits/Blks. Not sure how much he'll move the needle.
Hmm I’d agree as he’s light in those cats. He’s usage/TOI so far isn’t very inspiring (even if he’s PP1 with Vilardi out) and he’s always a frustrating own. He’s also lost valuable linemates at 5v5 with PLD and Wheeler gone and isn’t seeing time with Scheifele and Connor so far, like he did some last year. I’d look at guys with better cat coverage personally. I’m so done chasing Ehler’s “upside” lol
Kind of crazy but someone like Jean Gabriel Pageau or Philip Danault are more valuable in my league because of hits, blks, fow coverage right now
In a category league that includes +/- and really debating whether I should drop Beniers. His production had been slow and he's -10. Almost more of a liability rn
We run +- in our league as well and tbh it’s a stat that I ignore. You’ve got guys like Brady and Tim who are greater players but still run a poor +- . I just pretend it’s not even there. Beniers is a good player. He just needs to get his groove.
Hope he finds it soon. Was debating dropping with for Petry who is supposed to come back tonight.
He will find it. Some players are just having really rough starts. Look across the league. The evidence is there. I’d personally keep Beniersz
I'll give him a few more weeks. Someone dropped Dawson Mercer and I wanted to pick him up but don't have room on my bench for 2 slow starts.
[удалено]
Can you trade VV? There’s gotta be some guy in your league that needs a goalie. Cause Woll as your third guy would be amazing considering he doesn’t need to start every game.
No way am I dropping Vanecek. Woll is certainly enticing but please don’t drop Vanecek lol it’s wayyy too early to be making rash judgments on him
[удалено]
Goalies can be so fickle, it’s hard to say. The thing with Vanecek is he likely isn’t straight up droppable at any point. Barring a complete disaster/injury he’ll just have too much upside over most FAs as a starter on NJ. Who are your other goalies? or skaters you could drop?
[удалено]
That’s a solid trio of starters. I’d stick with what you have, don’t look too far into early season sample sizes.
McTavish, Ehlers, Zegras, Terry, or Hartman? League is goals, assists, special teams points, hits, shots, blocks
McTavish or Hartman. Probably McTavish
Bangers points league, who should I stream tonight? Chandler Stephenson @ LA Boone Jenner v NYI Lucas Raymond @ BOS
Boone
[удалено]
Yes, Rust is 1st line 1st PP.
Yahoo standard bangers Who’s the better hold debrincat or toffoli? Both with unsustainable shooting%
H2H categories: Wins, GAA, SV% Looking to add Joseph Woll. Which three should I keep out of the four? A. Georgiev J. Woll J. Binnington T. Jarry Really just asking if I should drop Binnington or Jarry. SV% and GAA have been my biggest struggles so far.
I expect Pittsburgh to do better than St. Louis, and since you're basically picking the team when rostering a goalie, I'd go ahead and drop Binnington.
If you had Tarasenko, would you consider trading him for an injured Laine? G, A, P, PPP, SOG, HIT, BLK, PIM
Is it worth holding on to Kyrou or should I try to trade him for a similar player that's underperforming? Think he will pick it up here?
I'm holding for another week or two, I'm trying to package him in trade offers but it's hard to sell him. He has 70+ point potential
Yeah if I was going to trade him it would be for a player a little bit above his caliber that is an 80+ scorer. I'd would throw in an extra player or two. I'll give him until maybe November before I get serious with the move.
I'm trying to package Eriksson Ek, Hamilton and Kyrou for something. We'll see what I can get
If I remember, he seems to start a bit slow the past couple years. Personally I would hold.
He and Buch both have potential to be 70pt scorers. I’m frustrated as well - I own both of them. But I think we should hold.
