Zajac then Hudler if looking for both points now and upside. Hagelin would be included if his shoulder injury heals properly. Tanguay, Stempniak, Letestu and Nielsen if you just want a fill-in who will help you during those spot starts.
I'm on the board in the 3rd round of my roto keeper league's post-draft supplemental draft (league info & team roster in siggy below).
Picked up Ott and Frolik in 1st two rounds. This will most likely be my last pick. Looking to take a flyer on someone who might help me out this season in case of injuries to my other forwards, and possibly have some upside down the road if a breakthrough/breakout season were to occur for said player.
Who would you pick from this lot:
Hudler
Bailey
Hagelin
Matthias
Stempniak
Butler
Letestu
Zajac
Laich
Jokinen
Stafford
Tanguay
Nielsen
Thanks for any input.

I'd roll the dice on Hudler.
And I dont' blame you for passing on Zajac. I just don't see NJ producing this year.
Steadiest producer out of this bunch is Nielsen. He's widely underrated but he scores 50 points every year or gets very close.
Highest upside for next year is Tanguay, in my opinion. Colorado will have a strong offense and Tanguay should be an important part of it.
