In a 10 team league (I looked everywhere for that information but didn't see it, as I noted in my first post - but looking now, a third time, I found it! lol) yes you're in trouble up front. Vrbata and Ryder are going to freefall and I wouldn't expect much from Galchenyuk in Year 1.
Tavares will be huge, I think people underestimate that, and with Green you will always have that massive upside. Versteeg is also going to be underrated, and Eriksson is steady. But you can't compete with the guys who have Crosby, Malkin, Ovechkin, or Stamkos because I'm sure the rest of their team has nice supplemental depth.
I would package Seguin and Marchand - you could make a killing off of those two. Then I would shop Thornton. The goal is to take those three players and turn them into four 72-point guys (or thereabouts).
Ryder and Vrbata are untradeable, so don't bother. It doesn't take a genius to know where they're going, and everyone is thinking the same thing.
Your team isn't that bad, as Reese opines. Winning 4 goalie cats and finishing 5th in 8 scoring cats is enough to get you in the Top 3.
