I took Carter. Go with the hot player would be my theory (although Kopitar has been pretty hot lately too, but Carter seems to also be getting lucky hot goals).
Hey guys,
been on here a couple times to ask for some insight - in a suicide pool where you pick players who are likely to get at least one point or PIM (you get a strike if they get blanked). I've been trying to pick guys playing the softest opposition, ideally at home, so I was going to take a King tonight. Question is should I take Kopitar, who has been pretty good against the Flames over his career, or Jeff Carter, who seemingly is scoring at will? I was leaning to Kopitar as I thought he had better assist and slightly better PIM potential. Any other King I should consider?
Thanks crew!

Thanks to everyone who gave some input here and in other threads, much appreciated!
