    I like Atkinson more. Guy just produces and has less obstacles to being "The Guy".

    Agreed. Additionally, Atkinson will be playing in the NHL this season. The same can't be necessarily said for Conacher. I wouldn't expect him to make the jump quite yet.

    According to most stats they are both 5'8" and about 175 lbs.

    I am liking Atkinson slightly more these days. Easier route to quality minutes.

    I own Conacher and I would probably trade him if I were offered Atkinson. That's mainly because of short term gain. In three years I think both will be pretty close with a big edge to Conacher in PIM potential. But that's three years. Now matters more and that's why Atkinson wins this.
    GO WINGS!
