    How much do positions count? if Benn is a LW still and Briere is a RW.......Briere this season. If Briere is only a C this year....Benn.

    In the future....Benn...although it sound sas though benn will eventually only be a C.

    Even just based on age...gotta go with Benn in the keeper. Have you ever seen him play live? I've watched him from BCHL, thru the WHL, and into the NHL....love him (yeah, man crush).

    Good Luck!

    I think for this upcoming year Briere will be better but I think starting with the year after that Benn is going to be a better player. He needs a little time to get acclimated to being the #1 center and then he will take off. Briere will start regressing a little soon. So overall I would go with Benn if you can withstand this year.

    I agree with RangerFan, and I wouldn't be too surprised if Benn outperformed Briere even this year.

    I would take Benn this year and in the future too. there is just too much competition for Briere where Benn will be the main go to guy.

    I would take Briere, this guy is consistently putting up points and has the same opportunity to be the stud he was in Buffalo as the top go to guy. Look out if he can stay healthy because he will make Benn look like a third liner.

    I don't get this statement at all. There was more depth on the flyers last year and Briere still put up some sweet numbers. Now there's less depth and he'll be looked too, along with Giroux, as a go-to guy.

    I expect Briere to put up some really solid numbers this year. I'd take him over Benn this year.

    Anything beyond this year, it's Benn all the way. The kid's gonna be a superstar and Briere is getting onto his last few years of solid productivity.
