Enstrom for me. More consistent and plays the most games.
I've got to make a tough decision today that could very well determine if I win the pool (I'm in 1st put my lead is paper thin). I must start 5 dmen, which means I need to start one of the following guys for the next week (Sat - Friday inclusive games):
1. Enstrom; Jets play 4 times (NYI, Buf, Was, Mon).
2. Gardiner, Leafs play 3 times (Ott, TB, Fla).
3. Vatanen, Ducks play 3 times (Edm, Edm, Van).
Would appreciate some advice on whether I should go with guy currently injured (and who was struggling before he got injured), the guy putting up some points but with defensive liability and a major scratch risk, or the junior rook just called up.

Is Enstrom even healthy? From what I gather on CBS, he is still out with no return date mentioned yet. Last I heard, week-to-week. I'd roll with Jake Gardiner.

Gardiner. Who knows when Enstrom will be back.
I would go with Gardiner only because Enstrom is injured.

I'm also voting Gardiner...20 minutes last night...2 helpers...sadly a -2 [which may push him back to the press box given how Carlyle seems to like to coach].
You can't in good conscience play Enstrom who may well not play any of these games. That leaves you 2 rookies to choose from. Give me the one with the most offensive upside on the team that doesn't have as many solid D ahead of him on the depth chart.
This is a roll-the-dice crapshoot, but that's at least my reasoning. Good luck!

Pretty much a crapshoot here. As others mentioned Enstrom is week-week and Noel made a point of clarifying that as the initial reports were day-to-day.
Flip a coin. I'd probably go with Gardiner.
Thanks all. Agree this is a total crap shoot. I think I'll try Gardiner and hope for the best!
