Points only with wingers being more valuable, I'd take Nichushkin here. Just given the positional differences, I'll take Nich but it's very close.
Gotta keep one, can't keep both. Points only keeper league. Keep in mind wingers usually hold an extra edge in our league for premium wingers are less common than centers. Both are in great situations, just not sure which has better short and long term potential. Thanks again!!

I also like Nichushkin here - Barkov will be a special player, but I feel NIchushkin is in a better situation to produce right away, plus, as you said, wingers are at a premium.

Tough one.
Mph, I'll go with Nichu too.
Nichushkin is going to be better, I would take him any day of the week over barkov
In a points only, I'll go with Nich who has the better teammates to make him produce. I think Barkov will be a better all around player.
I'm going to go the other way and say Barkov. My reasoning is that he is their #1C and will be their franchise guy. I'd rather go that route. Security with ice time and he will be given every opportunity to succeed. Not saying Nichushkin doesn't have that but I prefer Barkov.

I'm going the other way and saying Barkov, both have the potential to be big time players but I just prefer Barkov a little more long-term at this point. Nichushkin will likely out produce Barkov next year however.

Given the specifics of your league positionally, the fact that I like Nichuskin's situation more than Barkov in terms of his teammates, and the fact that I flat out just think Nichuskin will be the better point producer - he gets the nod from me for sure.
Where positions matter, I'll take the Star's winger. If not, Barkov by a hair. I too think he's the overall better player of the two. But she's close.
Hockey Pools? Too many to mention. Points only, salary cap and dynasty.
I'm picking Nichuskin here. Good wingers are harder to find.
Give me Nich on this one.
Another vote for Nich. I do like Barkov, but given the opportunity to play with Seguin and Benn (or Spezz on line 2) Nich is in the better situation next year and moving forward IMO.
