    Default Jordan Staal or James Neal?

    Who would you rather own in a points only keeper?

    Positions don't matter.

    Even if these guys play on the same line, Neal would still be the guy I would pick.

    Yep, another +1 for Neal. He's also bound to make it to the top PP over Staal as well.

    I will go with Neal too. I think he could hit 60-70pts, where as Staal will most like be hit 50-55pts.

    I'd probably go Staal if positions don't matter. Long term at least, though short term he may also have the better stats if he centers Malkin on the second line. Now I'm basing that on skill set and potential. I watch a bunch of Penguins games (obviously) and I wasn't incredibly impressed by Neal last season. Granted great things could happen for Neal with a healthy Crosby/Malkin.

    Basically, I don't think it is as obvious as the votes thus far indicate. I don't think Neal is a bad choice, but I'm still in Staal's camp. And I think he's got opportunity for 70+ this year centering Malkin.

    Cheers
