    Default Steen or Wheeler?

    Currently have Wheeler, but looking at Steen because of +/- and the way his line has started,

    Stat cates are standard but also have hits which make Wheeler a little more valuable.

    Hold onto Wheeler. Steen is a decent depth player on a scoring by committee team who's just starting well. Wheeler will still get the prime minutes so I wouldn't make an impulse move after two games.

    You couldn't be further from the truth.

    Steen is consistently 2nd/3rd in ice time among forwards for the Blues for three years running now. Calling him a depth player is amazingly ignorant. He's a leader for the team and one of their go-to guys who plays in every situation.

    It amazes me when people make outlandishly ignorant statements like that. Seriously, what are you basing your statement on?
    GO WINGS!

    Fine - I was too harsh using the word depth. But my reasoning is because they are a scoring by committee team and he usually has around 40-50 points a season with not always great PP totals and he doesn't hit much, so that limits him in fantasy. He's a better real life player than a fantasy player. I would prefer the player whom I feel would be a better option and shouldn't be dropped after two games.
