    Default 6th pick overall

    Currently hold 6th overall in my salary cap keeper. I expect the draft to go Matthews, Laine, J.P., and I know the guy in 4th likes Tkachuk. This means one of either Dubois or Gostisbehere falls to 6. I also have an open offer of Marner for that pick. Which way would you go?
    Edit; should also point out that I'll need to draft a def for sure, I'll be tight up to the cap, so if Ghost and his elc fall to me, it'll be hard to look past.

    I would take Marner if that's an option for sure over Dubois and Ghost

    I agree. I would go Marner over anyone but Mathews and Laine.

    How does your team stack up? If you can win it next season I go Ghost (for me Marner doesn't stay past the 9 game mark next season)

    @Sulla, it's competitive, got to semis last year. If Ghost provides 40 or more on elc, it would be big. But Marner is a tough name to pass on, not sure how I feel about Dubois, hence the inclusion to get a feel from the forum.

    I'd seriously consider the Marner offer but it depends on your team needs and how fast you are looking for production. If you think Gostisbehere is a difference maker in your quest to win short term, then he has to be considered at this point.

    If you think your team still has some work to do, I'd go Marner.

    As Axe says.. If you have a chance to win you take Ghost, win it all, and worry about missing out on Marner whilst drinking out of your championship mug lol

    I agree with Sulla and axe. If you feel ghost could put you over the top then I'd go for him. If your looking for the best most valuable deal, then take marner

    I'm assuming your draft has now passed. Hope you went with Ghost. With the cap situation, needing D, and Ghost being a solid option compared to the others, he's the pick here.

    I hope I'm not too late in chiming in, but I have a question or two that I believe should be considered:

    A) will the Marner deal still be there if Ghost Bear goes at 5th overall?

    B) who else is available in the draft? If Ghost Bear is up for grabs are there other offensively talented dmen there too? Someone like Provorov or Werenski maybe? Just wondering out loud.

    Otherwise, I tend to agree with the others that Gostisbehere is your best option short term, while Marner is a home run long term.

    Marner/Dubois, which ever is not taken at #5

    Ghost I wouldn't bother with given you comments about your cap. RFA next season, and will see a decent raise. Like Axe said, if he's your missing piece to a title the ok, but without seeing your league, I'm guessing you're not close to the title.
