Aho or Lindholm?
I have an empty spot on my roster and am looking at these two. Who has the higher upside? I feel like they're even points wise, but Lindholm takes the edge multi cat wise. But for some reason, Yahoo rankings love Aho. What's the deal? :/
One year Yahoo! weekly H2H, 12 teams
Skater categories: G/A/P/+-/PIM/PPP/BLK/SOG/HIT
Goalie categories: GS/W/SV%/SO
Forwards: Backstrom, Tavares, Getzlaf, Zibanejad, Gaudreau, Guentzel, Konecny, Haula, Zuccarello, Rantanen, Point, Spooner
Defense: D. Hamilton, McAvoy, Klingberg, Hagg, Ristolainen, C. Miller
Goalies: Quick, Talbot, Markstrom, Mrazek
IR+: Kreider
Re: Aho or Lindholm?
With your stats I think Lindholm has the edge. Aho seems to shoot and score more, so leagues that reward goals higher than assists may favour Aho. I think that Aho has the higher upside as well, but it may take him a little longer to get there than Lindholm. In leagues that count face off wins Lindholm gets a little bump as well.

Re: Aho or Lindholm?
Last year I think Yahoo had Aho at over 250 shots in their projections so ca relate to those higher expectations - personally I prefer Aho too but the cats could make this a wash
Experience is the teacher of all things.

Re: Aho or Lindholm?
partial hijack, but still on topic...
Looking to answer the exact same question as I own Lindholm and Aho recently dropped to WW.
My Cats are diff...G,A,+/-,PIM,PPP,SOG,GWG
so a goal heavy league. Would this scenario tip the scales for Aho easily? should I make the swap?
I'm thinking this is a yes although other drops could be Shipachyov, Killorn, Schmaltz.
I already have Skinner too and so 3 Carolina Hurricane forwards means there will be a lot of benching on the NHL's heavy schedule days? I already dropped Teuvo for the surplus issue.
Re: Aho or Lindholm?
With your categories being goal heavy, counting shots on goal and no face off wins, I would go Aho.Originally Posted by Joe_Sakic19

Cheers!
