Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
Which young stud has the better long-term outlook in a roto league (G, A, PIM, PPP, SHP, SOG, HIT, BLK) - Huberdeau or Trouba?

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
Hard to bet against a forward when the other guy is on the blueline, but with all those other categories, I think Trouba is your man here

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
It's always hard to evaluate a F to a D, but pretty much impossible without knowing the number and type starting positions, number of teams etc.

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
Yeah, it all depends on the rest of your team, amount of keepers, roster makeup, etc. I voted for Huberdeau because typically stocking up on elite F options is the way to go in my opinion. You can use your D slots for cheap Hits/Blks/PIM types while focusing on the best possible offensive Forwards. For that reason, I chose Huberdeau because of his upside, performance on a bad team as a rookie, potential future linemates (Barkov, Bjugstad, Trocheck, etc.), and dual positional eligibility (C,LW) in yahoo leagues -- also because he's a Forward.

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
That's exactly how I handle roto keeper leagues too. I only keep guys who are good at G/A/SOG and then target HIT/BLK/PIM late in the draft.Originally Posted by mounD
Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
I'm going with Trouba as I think he has more potential to be an all round elite roto player than Huberdeau

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
I will go with Trouba here, due to your league categories.
I will say that in a points only league keeper, Huberdeau is a pretty solid buy low candidate right now.

Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
Shocked that there's so much love for Trouba here. Many strategies I know focus on scoring forwards and fill out defenses with cheap and affordable guys to give them their peripheral stats.
In a couple years, I think there will be very few leagues where Trouba's value is at all close to Huberdeau's.
Re: Prospect poll - Huberdeau or Trouba
I like Trouba. I think he will tick all the bases. next year 15G, 25A, 15PPP, 2SHP, 150SOG, 100+ HIT, 130+ BKS. That is a real solid fantasy player. Those are conservative estimates as well. I think he could score more than that. He'll end up being a regular 50+ pt guy eventually.
