Ugh what to do...

[JaeTM]

My team has been decimated by injuries (Stamkos being the most recent), not even a quarter of the way into the season.

My team looks like this, and I need help as to what I should doing moving forward. It is a keeper league, and I'm currently in 9/10 after an abysmal last week.

C: Steven Stamkos (IR)
C: Jonathan Toews
LW: Zach Parise
LW: Taylor Hall
RW: Vladimir Tarasenko
RW: Kyle Okposo
D: Justin Schultz (IR)
D: Brent Burns (IR)
D: Seth Jones
D: Shea Weber
BN: Jeff Carter (IR)
BN: Brad Marchand
BN: Joe Thornton
BN: Jay Bouwmeester

G: Jonathan Bernier
G: Kari Lehtonen
G: Cory Schneider

As you can see, my team has been hit hard this season. I have 4 guys on the IR, only 1 IR spot, and I've had Lehtonen, Schneider, and Hall all miss time as well.

I kind of want to drop Burns and Schultz, but I've held onto them for so long during their injuries, I don't want to drop them, have them get picked up, and have them return in a game or two, while I'm stuck with some FA scrub.

Would you guys start dropping these three (Schultz, Burns, Carter) and pick up some FA, or suffer for a bit and wait for them to come back?

The latest update I have read on Justin Schultz has him coming back this week.

Is your pool head to head with playoffs or rotisserie? If its head to head I hold onto everyone for sure. Rotisserie I actually probably still hold onto everyone as Carter and Schultz should be back soon

 

[JaeTM]

Yeah, H2H.

I'd keep them. Assuming no FAs are juciy pickups, there's no sense downgrading your team just because you haven't been winning. I dropped Schultz way back because he wasn't putting up numbers and I got Shattenkirk of waivers. At this point, ride em out, they should all be back soon, save Stamkos, who you just can't drop in a keeper league.
