Buff is a virtual lock for 50-55. With Ellis out for several months, I think that gives PK just enough to creep above Buff.

I'll also gamble on PK
If both play up to their potential, then PK should be the easy winner, but PK doesn't always play up to his potential. Byfuglien usually plays up to his potential year after year and is pretty consistent.
If you like consistency, I'd go with Byfuglien. You know what you are going to get with him. If you like to gamble, then go with PK but expect your expectations to most likely get let down.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
Points only I roll the dice on PK. PK could hit 60 points if the stars align, Buff is steady for around 50. Even if PK doesn't hit 60, his floor is probably 45 so the risk outweighs the reward in my opinion.
Without me, it's only "aweso".
In a 1 year league I would go with Byfuglien no doubt. In a keeper I'm taking Subban.
Suban for me
Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund
Defense:
B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin
Goalie:
J. Binnington
IR (2 max):
Subban for me. But it is close to a wash. Hard to go wrong. PK has a higher ceiling and I think his floor is about 48.
its close but if its for one year only i rather go with Mr consistency so buff is my choice
Boy tough one. All valid points above. In a pts only I'm PK simply because of what I see at Buff's injury risk. He aint getting any younger and plays a very heavy game. That plus the bigger upside for PK couple with the Ellis injury tip the scales in favor of Subban for me.

I'll roll Buff here, but it's very close.

(No I don't have a hockey problem...)
In a points only league I think it's splitting hairs to choose between them. I voted same.
If I was drafting and had to choose one I'd go PK, as NSH has a better PP.
