In Points Only, Anyone Taking Aho over Scheifele?

You can't go wrong here. Both good choices. If Aho is eligible for all three forward positions in your league rather than just center, that pushes him over the top for the win imo.

Ive heard rumors that Aho will lose everything but C since that is all he played this year. I'm not sure how it works year over year but this would definitely hurt Ahos appeal. hopefully he stays multi position as its helped my team loads this year!

Very good to know! I don't watch him enough to see that. That helps sway me more to the Scheifele side.

Just to add more confusion, give me Aho over Scheifele in a points-only DYNASTY league. Their production is very similar already and Aho's youth likely gives you four more years of production over their future careers. Those extra years of production shouldn't be taken lightly IMO. Tough call, though, as we've likely not seen either of their peaks yet.

I don't think age should be taken any further into consideration than perhaps Scheifele's closer to hitting his peak than Aho is.

I wouldn't worry about longevity of high end production. 2-3years is as far ahead as one need look in 90% of pools. Both have 5+years of high end production

Thanks for all this! I think I'll use Scheifele to try and land a bigger fish, and hopefully draft Aho early next year.
