    Default Landeskog vs Wheeler

    Who would you rather have in your team and why? Landeskog or Wheeler. It's a keeper leauge, scoring settings in sig.

    I like Wheeler here. Landeskog is overrated compared to his actual production, Wheeler is underrated compared to his actual production. Think Wheeler has more upside than Landeskog and he already produces better.

    Based on your settings and Id easily take Landy

    Take it from a guy whose followed his career from his kitchener days(saw him plenty)

    Dont know how you can say hes overated - he hasnt even played 2 full seasons.

    I see similar points but Landy waaay more hits and more SOG.

    Everyone says he's a PPG player. I think he's a stretch to hit 70 at any point of his career. He's Dustin Brown, maybe.

    I would take Landeskog here. Even if their points are similar Landeskog will get more hits and blocks but Landeskog has the potential to outpoint Wheeler but a good bit in the future since he should be playing with MacKinnon or Duchene on a high powered Colorado offense.

    Wheeler has higher upside for points but Landeskog will have higher hits/sogs. just depends what kind of player you think Lando is, if you think hes a 65-70 point player id probably go with Landy. Anything below 60 swings it back in Wheeler's favor
    One day I will quit fantasy hockey, today is not that day.

    It's a really tough choice, there's really not a "wrong' answer here. I could see both players peaking around 80 points. However, I lean slightly towards Landeskog, based on the fact across the full season he'll get significant amount more hits than Wheeler.

    Also, I think Landeskog's situation in Colorado enhances his value and gives him a slight advantage over Wheeler as well. However, at this point Landeskog is turning into a candidate for the band-aid boy list. So having said that, I could see a case made for either one.

    Hope this helps.
