    Default Eichel or Laine?

    My gut says stick with Eichel... but Laine has the talent around him on top of his own talent... this is a favorite debate of mine. What do you guys think?

    I couldnt get the Matthews owner to budge for anything. So congrats. With no position bias in your setup I think you grabbed the right 2 guys, long-term.

    If position doesn't matter and goals aren't weighted I prefer Eichel.

    The only way I take Laine over Eichel is if it's a league that rewards more for goals than just your standard H2H league.
    10 Team, Points Only, Cash League

    25 Man Roster (no position), top 20 point getters count at end of month
    Keep 20/25 at seasons end, Cut 5 to FA for redrafting
    Goalie points W=2pt L=-1pt SHO=2pt

    Stamkos, Tavares, Eichel, Mercer, JRobertson, RThomas, Kucherov, Nugent-Hopkins, Tuch, KConnor, Necas, Point, Konecny, SJarvis, Cozenz, Morrissey, Bouchard, Josi, Novak, Tolvanen, Peterka, Brink

    G- Vasilevskiy, Sorokin, Oettinger

    Definitely a close debate. If Eichel could click more with his supporting cast then I feel this is a clear cut win for him.
    10 team H2H points league (keep 4) - G, A, P, PPP, SHP, SOG, Hit, Blk, W, GA, SV, SHO
    C - Draisatl (c/w), Seguin (c/w), Aho, Couturier, Backstrom, Lindholm (c/w), Monahan
    W - P Kane, Hall, Wilson, E Kane, Dvorak, Lee
    D - Burns, McCavoy, Chabot, Werenski, Dahlin
    G - Vanacek, Merzlikins
