    I prefer Simmonds but it's hard to not consider Kesler with those FOW in there. Still, Simmonds is the better asset in most of the other categories when comparing them H2H.

    Axe makes a good point about face off wins. How heavily are they weighted? Could be a difference maker here.

    Even with FW being a stat, I still roll with Simmonds. FW you can get pretty easily elsewhere.

    Simmonds and it's not even close. The only clear category win for Kesler is FW. Every other cat is either a clear win for Simmonds or a pick-em.

    Simmonds for me. Kesler is awesome but he has fewer good years left.

    FOW is the only clear cut win Kesler beats Simmonds in. I can't imagine that is enough for you to take Kesler over Simmonds.

    I have a similar decision and going Simmonds.

    Keller makes it tough with the streak he went on of 41 points in final 43 games I believe it was but I like Simmonds ceiling at this point in their respective careers.
