Fiala vs Kerfoot

[eppigram]

Pick one for pts only keeper league (keep 10). What kind of upside do they have? How much of a breakout will we see this year?

Welcome to the forums.

Personally I prefer Fiala. I don't think either guy is much more than a 50pt type of player but I do prefer Fiala.

Like Fiala as well.

Will be interesting to see what Kerfoot's numbers look like now that Landy is back.

Also, welcome to the forums

I'm going to go Kerfoot. Mainly due to opportunity. Less traffic in front of him in Colorado.

But in a keep 10, neither should really be a 10th option. I was choosing between JVR, Radulov & Stone (12tm keep 10) this Sept. -- for comparison sake

Thanks for the replies! I agree that neither should be top ten keepers, but last year I ended up winning and a number of my new players became keepers (5 players). I'm hoping for a crazy breakout from a few of my young guns (like Pastrnak, Ehlers and Draisaitl last season)

Welcome aboard!

I would choose Fiala here but only because he is running hot. He has never been a dominant offensive player but has a solid game. He has some moves for sure. Kerfoot I must say has me so intrigued. He was a top player of his college team and if I am not mistaken was considered for the Hobey Baker. He apparently has the work ethic and smarts to stick as a pro and his production doesn't appear to be streaky. They are both likely no more than 50-53 pt players, but that has its value in many leagues.
