J. Stall or B. Ryan?
 

League cats in sig. Who would you rather have as a keeper? How close are they?

I think it could go either way, I want to say Staal, but I'm going to go with Ryan here. Ryan should have a decent PIM advantage and that could very well tip the scale in his favour. Staal though has a higher upside for this season though, so again don't think you can go wrong with either.

I am going with Staal. He gets to play with his brother and he can finally show everyone what he can do playing the 1st line compared to the 3rd line.

Bobby Ryan for me, he wins in every category and has a higher upside. Jordan will be centering the 2nd line, not playing on the 1st with Eric.

I don't view the contest as very close

I much prefer Bobby Ryan here. Both are solid, but Ryan will be in a tier above Staal IMO.

bobby ryan for me too.

i think staal will end up playing the same tough minutes in carolina that he did in pittsburgh. they don't have anyone else capable of the role. he will have better wingers to play with, so his offence should go up, but i still don't think that he can achieve what ryan can.

I don't know any player named Stall so I'd go with Ryan.

CAR or PIT...Don't think it matters. Staal is a very good hockey player, but will never touch Ryan in most fantasy formats. Ryan is the easy choice here.
