From the names you list, I would probably take a shot with Hemsky. His skills have never been questioned, just his health.
So far so good with the health and the numbers are there. I'd take a chance on him but be prepared to jump when the train jumps the tracks and he gets hurt. Hope it doesnt happen but history isnt on his side.

My second choice would have to be Jamie McGinn, but I am not sure I would want him over Brent Burns.
If thats the move you want to make, I'd look at McGinn.

Flash over McGinn hey? McGinn is on the #1 PP, and had SOG last night. Flash and McGinn both lead their teams in SOG. Flash looks like a solid ~25 goals guy, where McGinn has hit 20 but is still developing and may have a higher ceiling. I'm tempted to take McGinn as he has a bit of a hotter hand, and seems to be a little more productive on PIMs (not much, but hey).
It looks like a bit of a coin toss actually.
Boyes also seems to have the highest potential of any of the guys, given his past production. He's also in a great spot on the Islanders' lineup - alongside Tavares/Moulson both at EV & PP. He has dual position eligibility too.

UPDATE - P. Berglund is also available. His 8 goals so far are pretty enticing, but he doesn't appear to be getting many shots, and the PP icetime is pretty spread out in St. Louis.
Hey, I'm not saying Flash is a slam-dunk here...none of these guys are.
Flash is averaging 18:15 TOI and 3:12 on the PP with 47 SOG
McGinn is averaging 18:21 TOI and 2:49 on the PP with 51 SOG
These guys are both filling a very similar role for their respective teams at the moment but I feel Flash's role is much more certain long term. If you feel there's more upside with McGinn then go for it but it's not as if this kid is some high-end youngster. He was drafted in the 2nd round of 2006. Other forwards drafted in the same round: Kulemin, Anisimov, Lucic. Do we expect there's much more to come from them? McGinn was never really a high ceiling prospect while Flash already has a 60+ point year under his belt.
