    Default Scheifele or Forsberg?

    Which one has the higher upside? Will Scheifele put more points on the PP this year? I'm tempted to pick Scheifele because he blocks more shots (60 last year compared to 30 for Forsberg), but Forsberg already played on the 1st line last year...
    Thanks!

    Forsberg.

    Don't let blocked shots be the deciding factor here. You can find BS elsewhere.

    Forsberg is the legit choice between the two.

    That's a tough call for me. I'm not a fan of the talent around Forsberg and think Scheifele with Ehlers could be awesome. Right now, I'd put their upsides around the same 70 pts.

    Re Scheifele PP: he's still looking at 2nd unit PP time to start the season, but I'd guess that's going to change fairly soon

    Forsberg for me.

    70 pts for Scheifle is a real stretch. only 14 players hit 70-80 last year. They have names like Stamkos, Seguin and Malkin...

    Yeah and 70pts Sheifele's upside, IMO.

    Just curious, what would you say is Forsberg's upside?

    I own Scheifele in my keeper league and I would take Forsberg.. I feel like he gets more points in their primes..

    IMO
    Scheifele is 60 pts ceiling
    Forsberg ceiling might be 80 but he is the 60-70 point guy

    Right now I'd take Forsburg. But I think scheifele has the higher ceiling and I'm wondering if it starts to show this year.

    forsberg for me. he's something special to watch and he's already showing he's what you want scheifele to become.
