    Default Huberdeau vs. Larsson + Draft Strategy

    So my draft is next weekend, and I am trying to pull myself out of the basement of my league this season. I think I have done a decent job of building up my farm, but I do realize that my keepers are pretty weak at this point.
    Since we are a 16 team league that keeps 6F/3D/1G, our drafting options are limited to prospects for the most part.
    I have the 2nd overall pick this year, and I figure RNH will probably go first. Given my weak D, I was considering taking Larsson given his strong play in the pre-season, but I know Huberdeau has a huge offensive upside that may pay off in a few years. I am looking for opinions and drafting advice to help my team out this year.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Based on your D situation and your farm being full of nice offensive talent, I don't think you can pass on Larsson there.

    If you decide to go another way, I like Huberdeau or Strome for Forwards.

    Yeah, it's looking like NJ is going to give this kid every opportunity to be in a top pairing and on PP1.
    I haven't had a chance to see the kid play though. Anyone out there that can comment on what type of player he is?

    I can't comment personally on him but there are a couple threads going on him right now.
