I think Johnson could be drafted within ~17 spots of Tarasenko so my vote goes to him!
Vladimir Tarasenko - 159.6 average draft position – 77 games, 37G, 36A, +27, 18 PPP, 32 Hits, 264 SOG
Tyler Johnson - 177.5 average draft position – 77 games, 29G, 43A, +33, 17 PPP, 64 Hits, 203 SOG
We’re onto week three of the Summer 2015 Cage Match Tournament, where your votes will decide which NHLer’s Yahoo fantasy draft position will increase the most in 2015-16 compared to 2014-15, as well as that player’s counterpart, namely who’ll see his Yahoo draft position fall the most.
The two players above are the “last men standing” among the risers. More details on them will be provided in my regular cage match column, which will be posted on Wednesday July 22nd.
Full “rules” for the tournament were included in the week one column, but the most important things to remember are that you’re voting based on a hypothetical one year Yahoo league where G, A, +/-, Hits, PPP, and SOG are the only six categories and are all equally weighted.
The poll closes on Sunday July 26th, so be sure to vote before then.

went with Tarasenko due to the contract update
Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.
