(No I don't have a hockey problem...)
Some good ones to choose From, for sure, but I think in a one year league, there are a few decent options here:
Couturier and Marchessault seem poised to break out, but due to situation and ceiling, neither may put up crazy good numbers.
Young Marner is dynamite right now, creating chances for the Leafs, but as a rookie, still brings some risk to the table.
Wennberg is seeing top line minutes in Columbus, and plays with just enough edge to garner PIM too. His +/- may be low though.
I don't know if there is a clear winner amongst these four guys, but it gives you something to think about

D: Bouchard, McAvoy, Morrissey, Heiskanen
G: Vasilevskiy
With less than 1/2 a hit a game I wouldn't exactly say Wennberg necessarily plays with an edge and 2 PIM in 68 games is a category killer in PIM. Same can be said about his shots at a very low 97. Not sure if you have him mixed up with Jenner?
Of the group I'd probably take Rask but all of them have their warts. Not sure if you are going to come to a consensus over them.
Because of the injury to Huberdeau, Marchessault is seizing his golden opportunity right now. I would go with him.

Machessault is definitely the hot hand and he is being given the opportunity right now, but I prefer Rask and Hanzal over the entire year.

Marchesault and Wennberg are solid options... Personally though I go Marner. If he keeps up his play right now he could be a hell of a trade chip come the back end of the season
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Bump...
Nearly 1 week later. How doe Marchesault and Wennberg compare now? tough as Columbus hasn't played much.
Currently own Marner so he's not on the table, but looking to flip Bjorkstrand for either March or Wenn. Do like the fact that March SHOULD get LW status added to his C status.
What are the scales saying now?
Wennberg still for me
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Wennberg
Wennberg still has the most opportunity out of the players you listed
