Hey guys, I guess this is a 'good' problem to have...but currently I have 4 really good keeper quality D and can only keep 2 at the end of year. I would like to kind of decide now who I'm going to keep so I can unload the ones I'm not keeping for assets. 10 team league. League and team setting are listed below in my signature.

I have to pick 2 out of these 4 D to keep:
1. Green
2. Rafalski
3. J.Johnson
4. Karlsson


Which 2 would you keep? Right now I'm leaning towards Green and Rafalski, as I feel they both give me the best chance to win for the next 2-3 years.

Thanks

I'd take Green and Johnson, or maybe Karlsson. Rafalski would probably be my last choice given Karlsson's upside and still decent production, and the new gear JJ has kicked into.

With your stats, and it being a keeper, I, too, would keep Green and Johnson. I'm a big Johnson fan and think his defensive short-comings are being slowly fixed and used properly. He is a multi-cat beast and plays for a much more offensive team than Karlsson does. The only way I'd say keep Rafalski is if you need the guy who will put up the most points. Not sure if it's worth the risk to lose one of the young studs, but I wouldn't argue against it if you wanted your best shot to win next year. Still, I'd stick with Green and JJ, myself. Good luck.

Green for sure and it's a toss up between JJ and Karlsson. Rafalski has had a great career, but it's coming to an end.

I think Karlsson has a little more upside, but JJ is on a MUCH better team. I would probably take JJ.

It's pretty redundant now but with the your cats I would also go with Green and JJ.
