Berglund or Hensick

[Enapai]

Debating in a draft. Just looking for thoughts. Thanks.

Hello Enapai:

You need to get Dobber\'s 2007 Fantasy Prospect Report.

Dobber has compared Berglund to Sundin with an upside of 35g, 50a.

He has compared Hensick to Steve Sullivan with the same upside, 35g,50a.

One of the key differences for you might be that Hensick has a chance to make the Colorado team this year whereas Berglund will not be here until next year, at the earliest.

Again buddy, you need to get Dobber\'s Reports. They will help you a ton.

Actually, I have it already. My wife has tried to throw it away several times. B) Thanks for the added thoughts.

Bergy all the way.

Berglund\'s going to be a lot to handle once he puts a few more pounds on that 6\'4\" frame, but he\'s a bit streaky for my taste and still receives some criticism regarding his work ethic. I think I\'d probably go with Hensick regardless of timeframe. He may be much smaller, but he\'s also faster and has better hands (especially at full speed). I think he\'ll score more goals, as well.

Terry Frei seems pretty convinced that Hensick will spend this season in Lake Erie. With Sakic and Stastny up the middle on the top two lines, I\'m inclined to agree with him.

Dobber has commented that Berglund could be hyped in 08 similarily to the hype that Radulov got in 06 and Backstrom in 07. Do you consider that Berglund will be in North America, playing for the Blues, next year? If so, could he be a Calder candidate? Comparisons to Sundin, at age 19, make him very attractive as a \'future\'.
