It's between Okposo and Dubinsky for me.
But I'd simply pick a skater that has a lot of games over the next 7, 10, 14 days... whatever you like.
I've been hashing this and rehashing this for too long and I am still no closer to an answer. But I'm burning time with Eriksson out and MaxPac filling my IR slot. Slight preference to getting assists and some PIM's, and slight preference to RW and dual eligibility. But I will be glad to take the best of these players regardless. Who to choose? This post will decide it.
Little C/R
Vermette C/L
Chiassion R
Okposo R
Ro'R C/L
Dubinski C/L
Thanks!

I like ROR or Little in this situation. Okposo looks nice but he's never been able to stick on Tavares' line. ROR & Little get quality ice with good linemates and I feel this puts them in a good situation to produce.

I might have added Vrbata to that list as well. But Okposo got grabbed a few hours ago. I'm thinking Dubinski or Little. I like Dubs for the PIM and his TOI seems really good. He's clicking with Gabby, who might actually play a dozen games this year. But Little always seems to get points, albeit in streaks.
Spoiler to this scenario... Simmonds got dropped (in favor of Okposo). Though it is typically beyond my scruples to own a Flyer, he'd be hard to ignore, no?

OR... Clarkson! Dang. This is tough. Maybe I will play it safe and grab Clarkson. TOR is scoring goals, he's a RW, will get me PIMs and is a proven fantasy commodity. Only issue is that I don't get a lot of assists from him. But he is probably the best available guy and I could trade him later on.
