I like Wheeler here. Love the way Kesler plays but it will lead to injuries and we have seen some of that so far. I see Wheeler ramping it up as he enters his prime.

I think Kesler is way overrated in terms of point production.
Wheeler.
Kesler has too many injuries.
IMO, the most concerning is the shoulder.
Shoulders are nasty nagging injuries.
Dany Heatley has the shoulder thing too.
Shoulders are a dreaded injury for guys that put up good shooter stats in the past.
Wheeler for sure dude. Kesler hasn't been able to get healthy in 2 years. He still looks like he's having hip issues after a full year of re-hab. Wheeler might never be a consistent 30 goal scorer, but I would expect an average of 25G-40A from him going forward.
