Following your advice, I traded him for Oliver Kylington.
Any thoughts/comments ?
Thanks again

I'd say that you traded away risk for less risk. While there is a reason Kylington dropped so much in his draft year a) He still was drafted in the 2nd round so it probably wasn't all that major and b) it might be something that can be/has been worked on.
If you only look at the odds (since when dealing with prospects there is always risk involved), this is an improvement. Let's just hope that the odds work out!
On a fantasy hockey break.

I don't see him getting time in Arizona this year. And certainly not before Strome who should stick this year, but isn't guaranteed anything yet. He will be a couple seasons away at best.

I didn't want to reply to this thread before our draft took place and then I forgot but anyways...
I targeted Garland in both of my leagues this summer and luckily got him in both drafts (and got him pretty late even). In the article linked below, real NHL scouts ranked Garland as the 29th best prospect from the 2015 draft, ahead of players like DeBrusk, Senyshyn, Roslovic, Beauvillier and Merkley. It wouldn't be a big deal if it was just some fantasy hockey ranking but this is real life ranking, so it doesn't look like NHL teams see much issues with Garland's size.

Craig Button also ranked Garland as the 22nd best NHL affiliated prospect (http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-hockey-s-top-5...pects-1.436669). Again, not a fantasy hockey ranking but for real life. There, Garland is ranked ahead of players like Sanheim, Honka, Vrana, Barzal and Konecny.
So yeah, I really wanted Garland after seeing these two articles. But I wasn't going to reach for him, I think I drafted him in the 4th round in both leagues. So because of that, I probably would have taken the 18th overall pick for him but I would have traded Grzelcyk much rather than Garland if given the choice.
I'm hoping Garland has a good rookie season in the AHL, not expecting him to see any NHL action this year.
I trade Grzelcyk before Garland for the 18th pick.
