Hey all, super excited for another season of fantasy.

This is my first time selecting my keepers, so I want to make sure I make the right choices.

Here are my league settings:

Skaters
Goals (G) 6
Assists (A) 4
Powerplay Points (PPP) 2
Shorthanded Points (SHP) 3
Shots on Goal (SOG) 0.6
Hits (HIT) 0.4
Blocks (BLK) 0.4

Goalies
Games Started (GS) 1
Wins (W) 5
Goals Against (GA) -3
Saves (SV) 0.6
Shutouts (SHO) 5

10-team league, H2H Points



Here is my roster from last season:

David Krejci Bos - C

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins Edm - C,LW

Josh Norris Ott - C

Jamie Benn Dal - C,LW

Jack Eichel Buf - C

Nikita Kucherov TB - RW

Jason Robertson Dal - LW

Brady Tkachuk Ott - LW

Anthony Duclair Fla - LW,RW

Martin Necas Car - C,RW

Andrei Svechnikov Car - LW,RW

Cole Caufield Mon - RW

Shea Theodore VGK - D

Roman Josi Nsh - D

Quinn Hughes Van - D

Alec Martinez VGK - D

Adam Fox NYR - D

Alex DeBrincat Chi - LW,RW

Ilya Sorokin NYI - G

Kaapo Kahkonen Min - G

Jeremy Swayman Bos - G



Our keepers must follow this format:

F: 3

D: 2

Utility (any skater or goalie): 1



Right now, here are my keepers:

F: Kucherov
F: Tkachuk
F: DeBrincat
D: Fox
D: Hughes
U: Svechnikov

I think I will sadly leave Eichel unprotected despite him being my first selection in our draft last year. Just too many unknowns. If he is available in the later rounds I might consider him.

I have no goalies or centres worth protecting. Will target those positions through the draft.

My main concern with my keepers (that is driving me mad) is whether to keep Josi or Hughes in my second D slot. Fox is a lock. But I keep flipflopping on Josi vs Hughes. I believe Josi is the better fantasy player, but for how long? Would I be missing out on monster seasons from Hughes as early as this season?

Thanks in advance!

Hughes is risky because he's not signed yet, but he is great offensively. I love him, but I'm taking Josi. He's better all around than Hughes.
