justin williams for shane doan
The league counts hits, so doan is gold, but he is 6 years older and looking at retirement.
Who would you rater own in a 16 team, 20 keepers with goals, assists, hits, sog, +/-, PIM, PPP, and SOG.

Doan with hits gives you a huge edge...
Also Williams is stuck a bit in the depth charts, Kops, Brown, Richards, Carter, Gagne, Penner and Stoll... plus the Kings aren't exactly a huge offensive team with a lot of offense to spread around.
Williams might get a few more points, but Doan is still one of the "go to guys" in Phoenix, and generally speaking they tend to carry less risk in terms of production than those who face a lot of competition.

Kinda to add to what Ryan is saying in pointing at Doan as the better option - Doan is much more durable, even though Williams has put in two healthy seasons, he has been cursed with the injury bug for a long time and this would be a factor for me in opting for Doan. I concur though that all else being fairly equal in stats, Doan brings the big hits numbers in such a deal.
Doan is the better option. Williams is Injury prone and I just like Doan as a alround better player then Williams. Having hits also gives Doan the edge as well.
Not much to add. Doan for me.
thanks, rep was given to all the advice above.
This is why i love this site, i ask a question about a trade, go out for a few hours, come back and have a handful of posts giving good advice

Doan for sure.
I feel the same way the guys in the above posts feel. I trust Doan more. He's more durable and more of a focal point in his teams offense.
one more for doan.

Doan again, and lets not forget he did just sign a 4 year extension, so looking at retirement doesn't really apply.

True, he is older, but he's in great shape for a guy that's 36 years old.Originally Posted by notoriousjim
Justin Williams is the better player to own in points only leagues, but in this format, Doan is the clear choice because of all the categories he contributes in.
Good luck.

Another vote for Doan. Even in points only leagues, Willams has had 59 and 57 points over the past two seasons respectively, which was the most healthy he's been since 06/07. Doan, who is quite durable, is not that far off points wise (between 50-60 points in last three seasons), so include hits and his value increases by quite a bit. He also only had 14 PPP last season so there's still a chance of increased production.
