Rank these players(REP)
 

Hey gang. Please rate these players and maybe explain why:

Duchene
Hall
E.Kane
Benn
Landeskog

League info in sig. I am deciding on an offer received today and an offer I have sent out recently. All info is appreciated and as always REP will be given. Thanks a bunch.

Hey man, fantasy wise I'd say this is the way to go for now

Hall
Benn
E. Kane/Landeskog
Duchene*

My reasoning: Hall is probably the most offensively talented of the group, and he will be playing in young edmonton for years to come with loads of offensive talent and should be putting up great numbers.

Benn is next because he's consistently putting up points for the last 2 years and plays on the first line (usually) of a very decent dallas team.

Kane and Landeskog are very similar players fantasy wise- they both play on mediocre teams, both get a fair amount of points, but it's not quite a PPG, have lots of shots and a fair amount of PIM. They both also get a lot of hits, but your league doesn't count those so their value is slightly diminished.

Duchene is the biggest unknown, but for now, he's the low man on the totem pole. He is yet unproven and has greatly regressed from his breakout year of 67 pts, though he's starting to put up pts so far this year. I think he'll be good down the line, but for now is the biggest risk to keep.

Benn (big body, watch him explode this year)
Hall (is gonna be absolutely unreal, I'd offer a ton to get him now-watch him crazy good)
Kane
Landeskog
Duch

I have them this way:

Benn: The proof is in the pudding he has been there, done that and is looking like a solid ppg player. BTW, there are not too many of them!

Hall: The most upside of the rest. Good opportunity in Oil ville, but it's about the future and he still has to prove himself. There are injury concerns.

E Kane: Kane and Landeskog are close, I give the nod to Kane. He can be real nasty! He's ahead of Landeskog on the development curve. Still, it's close.

Landeskog: See above

Duchene: He just makes everyone nervous, big time worries with him. He was not protected in most keepers except for the deeper ones Why go there if you don't have to?

1. Benn
2. Hall
3. Duchene
4. E. Kane
5. Landeskog

I would say:

Hall
Duchene
Benn
Kane
Landeskog*

Hall as of now, assuming he gets a point in the current game playing, has a point in every game so far. He is the most talented fantasy player of the bunch and benefits from playing with RNH and Eberle.

Duchene, after some absense, is finally back to his good game-playing. He is putting up points so far at a nice pace alongside former NYI Parenteau. Keep in mind it's hard to put up a lot of fantasy value in NYI, so Parenteau will benefit Duchene.

Benn would be second for me, but after a delayed season start, he may be rusty (and it's showing). Play with confidence.

Kane is very talented, but the Jets are a frustrating team to bank on. They consistently let in goals so don't count on Kane for nice +/. He will put up an average amount of point however.

Seeing as Landeskog just got injured and is out indefinately, he's last :(. When he comes back, play with confidence.

Hall
Benn
Kane
Duchene
Landeskog

This stack for me as well. Benn over Hall and Kane over Landeskog

Benn - Will likely be PPG and give you solid PIMs
Kane - Probably 70pt guy who will give PIMs
Landeskog - 65pt guy with substantial PIM gap between him and Hall. Don't see Hall's points closing that gap. I also believe he will be more durable than Hall.

Hall - 65-75 pt guy because of HEALTH. Between Landy and Duchene with PIMs totals
Duchene - 70 - ppg who won't have many PIMs


Although Hall is chippier than Duchene, I have a gap between the first three and Hall and Duchene because I believe Benn, Kane and Landeskog will hold up better, making them better options.
