    This is tough... does your league have position requirements??

    If LW is a position requirement I almost lean towards Marchand.

    Younger, doesn't rely on an aging OVY and isn't being pressured by Kuznetsov.

    I'll go for the under-appreciated Marchand. That's no knock on Backstrom but Marchand is pushing 1.2pt/gm showing last year was no fluke.
