Fowler for Hedman
The title says it all. It seems like guys have been down on Cam Fowler forever now, but while his defense stinks, he is a steady fixture on Anaheim's PP and earns his share of points. Everyone seems to love Victor Hedman, but he gets little or no PP time with the Lightning. He has picked up his PPG the last few seasons, so is he worth swapping for the much maligned, but steady 35-40 point producing Fowler?

Id go with Hedman, I think he will get his chance on the PP, hes off to a slow start this season, but hes too talented, I think Hedman busts out this year if not then definitely next year, fowler is skilled and getting lots of PP time in Anaheim, but I like Hedman here

Both are very talented, but Fowler obviously hit a wall while Hedman is showing progress.
At the moment iŽd rather have Hedman, although i still have a lot of hope for Fowler to turn into a great fantasy defender.
Colour me biased, but I'd go with Hedman too. I like his situation on TB, especially in keeper leagues. The only way I'd even consider Fowler is in a one year league, and even then, I still don't think I'd do it.Originally Posted by Dennis4022
Hedman has been BRUTAL to start this season in terms of real hockey. Lots of ill-timed turnovers... but I still prefer him in fantasy.

how do you spell Hedman?
I spell it o...v...e...r...r...a...t...e...d
how long have we been waiting for him to show up to the game?
too ****ing long...he's probably the most overrated prospect we've had in 5-6 years
go with Fowler, at least he has potential
