    A few weeks ago, I had to chose 2 between Ehlers, Drouin and Nylander as my final two keepers and the one not protected was then gonna be used as traide bait. I chose to keep Ehlers & Nylander.

    I've been a huge Drouin fan since the World Juniors but the general consensus on the Dobber Forums about Ehlers and Nylander's last year (World Championships MVP) changed everything.

    A few days later Drouin gets traded to MTL and I wish I could have traded him after that happened since my league is pretty much only Habs fans. Oh well, can't win em all...

    Gotta go with my NEW homeboy, Jonathan Drouin.

    I don't expect much next year from him; especially if the Habs rely heavily on him, but he will begin to show as early as 2018 why he was so touted come draft time a few years ago.

    Ehlers will probably outpoint him next year but once both players have peaked, I think Drouin will have the edge.

    I tend to agree with this, but I would place an emphasis on the word "edge". In terms of talent, it is close.

    Perhaps Drouin has the higher upside and pedigree - but I would not trade my Ehlers for Drouin right now.

    Right now, Ehlers has a better track record and a better surrounding cast.
    But in a year from now, Drouin could be the better asset... sometimes, being the go-to guy can do wonders, especially if he starts feeding Pacioretty.
    Close call for me.
    Points-only keeper league. 12 teams. Keep any 12 players. Dress 12F - 6D - 2G.
