Ferland vs. Fiala
I'm looking to balance out my team by adding a depth LW (probably at the expense of JT Miller given my excess centers). Both Ferland and Fiala are available on waivers, and I'm debating which one to pickup. I'm low on PIMs, so does that tip the scales in favour of Ferland?

Goalie Cats (worth half what player cats are) = W,GAA,S%,SO (SO worth 25% of what player cats are)

Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
For sure there are better pure PIMs options, but they're terrible in everything else. My thinking was if there wasn't much between Ferland and Fiala to pick between them, then maybe PIMs would be a tiebreaker - my thinking was that Ferland was more of a power forward. But looking a little deeper, there may not even be much difference between them in PIMs anyway. Fiala's goal total is crappy compared to Ferland, but it looks like his two goals are recent now that he appears to be playing with Turris.

Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
Can you stream between them? Id start with Ferland even though he's put up goose eggs the last few games. If he's on PP1 and line 1 he's my choice for now.
Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2
Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO
Forwards:
C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund
Defense:
B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin
Goalie:
J. Binnington
IR (2 max):
Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
Ferland's periph value is more in hitting, so yes he's a power forward and a good one. He just stays out of the box . Fiala's offence I like on a long term basis. Personally, I'd rather have Fiala on a 2nd line over Ferland floating up on Cgy's top line. I just don't buy him being a full season producer.Originally Posted by coffee

Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
Our waivers are limited - basically they cost $5 each, so that means streaming is very expensive. Plus this is for my backup LW for depth only (for now). Nothing forcing me to pick up either, so could wait and see. But there are so few good wingers on waivers that I thought it might be good to pluck one of those two before someone else notices they're doing pretty well.

Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
I guess I should mention that Sven Baertschi is also available, but I'm not sure I should buy into much on Vancouver. Having said that, what he and they have doing has been pretty good...

Re: Ferland vs. Fiala
I'd probably go with Ferland here but don't spend too much time thinking about it. You're not gaining or losing that much either way.
