    Default Patrik Laine or Kyle Connor?

    Who do you like in a multi-cat points dynasty format?

    That's like debating between Tarasenko and Tyler Toffoli

    Haha. I wanted to gauge just how fast the hype train is rolling on Connor. Just in case the guy asks about my No. 2 pick. I would rather have Laine. All that size, speed and talent and just turned 18 four days ago.

    OK so that was an easy one. Laine is the obvious consensus there.

    Let's try another!

    Drouin or Kyle Connor?

    Huh how ?

    Tarasenko and Toffoli were taken in the same draft. 21 picks between them.

    Connor was drafted a year before Laine.

    And you can't even compare Connor's style of play to Laine but you can definetely compare Toffoli to Tarasenko (two pure-shooter, Tarasenko being elite).

    I'm not making a case for Connor her though.

    Laine
    Drouin
    Connor

    ..just my two cents. But the first two guys have been ranked that high by professional scouts for a reason. Drouin has shown what he can do lately and Laine is said to be a scoring machine.
    Connor on the other hand is a good prospect who seems to have developped ideally. But he doesn't have the same raw talent imo. He's simply been hyped a lot the last few weeks. We've seen this a lot before....

    Solid depth forward vs. Elite high end player.
