Esa Lindell vs Gustav Forsling

[StuntMan12]

are either d men worth getting in a keeper pool that is 24 player roster - top 12 forwards, top 4 d, top 1 goalie deep? Guys like Deangelo and Werenski are all taken. Are either d man near their level? wondering if its worth for me taking.

Are you guys all pretty confident that Lindell will make the jump and perform better than Julius Honka, a former 1st round pick who put up a couple more points than Lindell in the AHL this year? I don't really know much about either defenceman. Sorry to hijack the thread a bit

Lindell has a big advantage on Honka and that is his left handedness with no one in front of him.

Honka is a righty and will always have Klingberg to block him from the top pair. That's the way I see it.

i have to drop 5 before start of season and draft 5 new players

would depend what other teams drop... If you create a slot through trades then they are probably worth a gamble
