    Default Prospect or Proven Player?

    In a 12 team keeper league where we keep 8. Have done well the last few years but most of my team is meh... My keepers are Price, Allen. B Schenn, Hall, MacKinnon, Hamilton, Werenski and M Granlund. I have missed out on all prospects as typically I finish top 4 (but don't win). I am thinking of going after some younger players this time round and want help with who to target. Looking to avoid the C position as lot's of depth and value of a D or Winger is much higher in our league.

    Will pick 9th and then 16th - assume Hishler and Patrick are taken, who would you target out of this group? (I am leaning towards Provorov and Aho)

    Prospects / Young Guns:
    Hischler
    Patrick
    Aho
    Keller
    Provorov
    Hanifin
    D Strome
    R Strome

    Hanifin is too high, too many ways that he won't be an impact player when you have so many other legit players like Klingburg (who is young and a best case scenario for Hanifin).

    The rest aren't bad, you are already stacked on D for keepers and most of the best picks are D in this list, so that's too bad. Keller might be a good option for you who I'd have above Hischler and Patrick if you're hoping to hedge your bets with a young guy. But Klingberg, Ghost, etc aren't bad picks either, especially if you can flip them for a good forward.
