Hey Jeff thanks for doing this!

20 team H2H
G A +/- PIM hits blks PPP SHP sog

keep 7 now and moving to a dynasty format next season. Current 7 keepers look like this:

OV/JVR/Tavares/Seguin/Pietrangelo/Rask/Lehner

prospects(protect all): Yakupov/Coyle/Granlund/Mrazek

a.)would you rather keep pietrangelo over a more hit heavy guy like phaneuf?

i don't own phaneuf but it would cost me a mid rd pick upgrade + pietrangelo for phaneuf. league is pretty multi cat oriented so most guys have the ability to charge a bit more if the dman puts up pts and hits/pim etc. however pietrangelo imho is in an elite class of dman who could post over 50 pts every year. (karlsson, letang, Buff, yandle, etc) So does the pts from the back end outweigh phaneufs dominance in other cats?

b.)also this secondary question is more universal to hockey itself i guess..do you think phaneuf can still put up 40ish pts every year in toronto after rielly + gardiner see steady PP time and are regulars? or do you see franson and the above two eventually forcing phaneuf to take on a shut down role, secondary PP time, and a pay cut to stay on with the leafs hypothetically after his current contract runs out. (i think he's got 2-3 years left on it)

i know that its alot of hypothetical pieces to look at in the 2nd question but im just interested in how as of today you would see that logjam play out. gardiner already last season bumped phaneuf off the top PP unit a few times, rielly being more touted offensively then either leads me to believe he will take PP1 within his first few seasons. franson is showing elite PP skills as well this season and seems to be getting some "love" from carlyle. Him being very young still its not far fetched that if he continues to see the same mins he could maintain a slightly similar pace to what he has now.(i think it will drop off a bit tho).

I'm with you on Huberdeau.
But I'm surprised you take Doughty over Yandle or Markov with his abysmal season...
Doughty, really?
My idea was to keep Price + 5 forwards.
Wich one would be your keeper after Huberdeau?
Parenteau?
Mkoivu?
Elias?
Thanks again.

Thanks again Angus

Not really, no. The age issues scare me off a bit.

Will Doughty ever blossom in an elite fantasy defenseman ? Same for Fowler. Growing pains?

Starting to loose patience...

Doughty is a stud d-man who is playing a shutdown role. That explains his lack of offense. Fowler hasn't been as effective as expected, but Anaheim is getting contributions from others.

Doughty would be elite if he played PP and an offensive role, but he is so good defensively (like OEL and Faulk) that he probably won't have that role any time soon.

W/ Fowler it is growing pains.

Keep AP over Dion.

I like your line of thinking, and I really like the fact you are thinking ahead like that. With d-men it is all about relative value - Phaneuf has more value to the Leafs in a shutdown role relative to offense compared to Gardiner or Rielly.

I don't see this happening for at least two years though... so do you want to wait that long?

Probably Koivu. I explained thoughts on Doughty above.

Mailbag is closed. Thanks for the questions.

Don't forget to check out FantasyHockeyPP (details in sig) - an App that myself and Ryan Ma are developing.

Still issues with some of the functionality stuff, but we are rolling out some good content every day. Trying to be a more in-depth version of Rotoworld, etc.
