    EBERLE for me. Anyone who knows me, knows i'll pump Eberle's tires anyday of the week. Massive supporter of this kid. I would take Benn in a heartbeat, but he's up against #14 here. I think Eberle has a slighty higher ceiling and should be a consistent 84-92 point player in his prime. Benn, 78-84 point player. Not too shabby for each. Both current and future stud wingers. Eberle's support cast just makes me drool....
    Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.

    Both are awesome but I think Eberle is a class above.

    Eberle for me. That PP will become lethal. Even strength they may be about equal but I personally feel the PP is what separates Eberle.

    I've been skeptical of Eberle, and I'm still not ready to go all-in with him. But the more I see the more I'm coming around, there's just something special about him as a player. And you can't argue with his supporting cast in Edmonton.....it's Eberle for me.

    Eberle for all the reasons stated, but the gap isn't that big.

    Cheers.

    I'm a bit down on Eberle, but in a pts only, I would take him. Talent wise, he's on par with Benn IMO, but with a much better surrounding cast.

    Benn, for me, but them again Im biased as a benn owner.
    Eberle seems to be one of those guys who is an awesome hockey player, so his fantasy value gets propped up a little more than it should. Pts only, i see him at 70 or so, and benn at 75. Didnt eberle have something like a 19% Shooting last year? Can see that dropping to the 12-13 range

    for fantasy purposes, and more so for points only, this is a coin flip...
    if you look at real hockey value, it is nowhere near as close, as benn is clearly a far more valuable asset.

    If it's points only I've gotta go with Eberle here...

    Benn is extremely impressive, but his value is higher in multi-cat leagues.

    Eberle's just surrounded by so much talent... that combined with his unreal hockey sense and the fact that he's the only right-handed shot on that team means he will continue to enjoy tremendous offensive opportunities to just rack up points for the foreseeable future.

    Both are great young players. I like Benn, but Eberle is going to be a major cog on the Oil's high octane offence. Eberle will be getting top line minutes, and 1st wave PP time. Eberle for me.
