Dal Colle would be my target out of those choices.
Here's the situation. I pick 7th in my points only keeper in a couple of weeks. Guys like Reinhart, Bennett, Draisaitl & Ekblad will almost certainly be gone by then. I want a forward who will help me in '15-'16 and I think these 5 are the best options. My feeling is that only Gaudreau, Wennberg and Horvat contribute this season and the others potentially get spot NHL duty next season. What is everyone's thought on the best points only option of these guys given my goal of having them contribute in 2 years ? I really like MDC but feel he's 3 years away from a top 6 in Long Island. No positional requirements, points only.
Dal Colle would be my target out of those choices.

Another vote for Dal Colle.
My guess is that he's closer to being a full-time NHLer than we all think.
I'm guessing two more years with cups of coffee in the meantime.
Dal Colle is the safest pick, though I really like Wennberg as well.

It may also be helpful to post your roster and how many teams in your league.
That info is helpful in trying to determine how competitive your team might be.
Wennberg for me. Will have a sooner impact than MDC and has a similar upside.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
Points only, I want Gaudreau. I like Wennberg but I think he will be a better multi-cat guy and not offer the same offensive upside as Gaudreau.
