    Offensive talent wise, pretty similar. Barkov has recency bias on his side but we know Hall has 95+ point pace upside. So with the W premium that would give Hall the edge. But the other huge variable is health - do you want to take the risk with Hall? If yes then Hall, if no then Barkov (who has an injury history but hasn't been on the shelf most of this season like Hall).

    I think a healthy, motivated, and 82 game playing Hall is more valuable in your league than barkov given their positions.

    But that's too many asks of Hall at this point in my opinion. I'm not concerned about barkov injuries or motivation like I am halls. He also logs the 3rd most minutes in the NHL which I love. Behind only mcdavid and drai as the oilers ride their horses right into the dust. Barkov for me.

    Personally I'd keep Hall and Barkov and let PKane go simply based on age. Fantasy GMs are blinded once they see a 3 in front of players age and now that Patty Kane has reached that decisive 30+ age group, his value will go down in drafts.

    Don't get me wrong, I see great value still in Patty Kane as I am not normally blinded by age, but A LOT of GMs are.

    No matter who you go with, you are going to lose an excellent player. If you think losing Kane is a choice you aren't willing to make at this point, I'd probably go with Barkov over Hall by the slimmest of margins but if this was me, I'd let Kane go and look to re-draft him.

    I would say it's well past time time to put the injury stigma of Barkov behind us. This is going on two full seasons without any significant time missed and his production has been climbing steadily. He just had bad luck early in his career and it caused fantasy GMs to undervalue him.

    Hall has a more extensive injury record and we're seeing the brunt of it again right now. When the moon and stars align perfectly for Hall he can be a 90+ point guy but it's a gamble I'm not sure I want to take. Same with a guy like Malkin. PPG+ when healthy but keep an IR spot warm for him and cross your fingers he's in the lineup come playoff time. The older these guys get the worse it'll get whereas Barkov is still relatively young and resilient.

    On a somewhat related note it might be the last chance to kick tires on Auston Matthews in case there are Barkov-style injury concerns still lingering with his owners

    I can't get there myself but I can get close and reasonably see someone getting there. We are only one season removed from a 93 point MVP season, he's not a wrong choice but he probably comes with more risk.

    More risk, but more reward with Hall.

    But the risk of Hall is greater than the reward over Barkov.

    I would probably keep Barkov, but you need to be okay with Hall outperforming him and not letting it bother you.
