I would chose Hedman only because EK is going to turn into a 93 civic...insane mileage but will start to show wear and tear ,always needing to repair struts, shocks and UV joints.
Who is the better keeper?
10 team league
A little pre-mature, especially not knowing what happens in the off-season.
Both players are 28, E.K. around 6 months older
Whis your keeper?

Karlsson had such an awful start with the new team adjustments and uprooting his life. Then he settled in and did Karlsson things for a while. Now he's injured again and the sharks simply aren't going to rush him as they have to be thinking long playoff run with this team.
Their floors are pretty similar and Karlssons upside is just higher in fantasy, I don't see that changing. I still prefer Karlsson. If anything I prefer him more to Hedman than I did last season, given the adversity Karlsson has faced this year VS the ridiculously good season that the lighting probably won't be able to repeat next year.

I still prefer Karlsson over Hedman unless it's a cap league. We simply don't know what Karlsson will sign for at this point.

Not a Cap League. Just wanted to know where the mass was at with this decision. This year both have been a bit off.
Hedman went through a dry spell, point wise, while the team was getting 6-9 goals a night. Kinda had me worried. At least Tampa’s core group will be together next season.
I know it’s hard to judge E.K. with all the stuff he had going on in his personal life. Injuries have not been in his favour either. And who knows where he’ll sign next season. If it’s not San Jose, will he need to adjust for a few months again!?
It seems to me E. Karlsson is the bigger risk but bigger reward fantasy wise.
I'm going Karlsson, all-day, every day.

Karlsson for me. Plus, he has better name value than Hedman.
Hedman is more like a Doughty, where in real life they are elite but fantasy wise i think their fantasy stats will only get lower
