To add some context, fantasyhockeygeek rated them last season as Aho 16th (109 points) overall and Draisaitl 22nd overall (102 points) but if Aho were to lose the wing eligibility he'd drop a bit I would think.
For the league in my sig, how would you rank these two and do you think they will both retain winger eligibility (huge value getting those faceoffs from the wing)

I prefer drai slightly and feel he is more likely to keep his winger eligibility. Even if Edmonton splits him and mcdavid to balance two lines, when the chips are down (and they will be down again) they will get double shifted together. Aho is the no 1 center in Carolina and is also a great choice. His winger eligibility is more of a question mark for me going into next season.

I'd go Drai here. I think 1) he's straight up a bit better, and 2) he's more likely to keep his eligibility.

Another vote for Draisaitl over Aho due to opportunity. Draisaitl is going to play 50+% of his shifts with McDavid that means more opportunity for points as well as a much higher likelihood of maintaining wing eligibility.
Agree with all of the above. Draisaitl is the one.
Agree with the others - Draisaitl over Aho and Leon keeping his wing eligibility is much more likely too me.
Devils & Predators fan
thanks for the input folks, seems pretty unanimous even with Aho out fantasy-pointing Draisaitl last year!
I have repped where I can!
