    As a hockey player I like Hossa more in fantasy Gaborik. Goes without saying that both are huge band aid boys.

    Yes that is true. I like the way Hossa has been playing the last couple years. He's a secondary guy on a very offensive team. Gaborik is in a good spot too but relied on to produce. It's a tough call. Pretty even I think.

    Yeah agree its even but Gaborik is more of a sniper and goals are harder to get. As you pointed out Gaborik is more relied on (good or bad?). Thats why I would go with Gaborik.

    Gaborik is higher risk but at the same time higher reward, I really like Hossa, but I think I would lean towards the high risk high reward Gaborik.
