Rank for Rep. Middle Tier Forwards.

[Toews Took My Girl]

Curious on how everyone would rank these skaters in a points only league?
For extra bonus points rank based on salaries for each skater in my league is in signature.

Here's what I'm thinking so far....
- Andreas Johnsson

-Kapanen, Ferland

-Fiala

-Haula

AJ at one mil will for sure give the most return ratio to cap.

Fiala I think will get all the chances in Min so might be ranked second however his support cast isn’t all that great.

Ferland in a points league even playing with top line is probably lowest. He needs stars to produce but we have seen even with those stars he isn’t consistent

AJ for 50-60pts
Fiala for 50-55pts but a ceiling for more. Should get better as time goes on.
Kapanen 45-50pts, imo his ceiling is 60 with better deployment. I would draft him with the idea of trading as soon as he catches fire for other assets.
Ferland: in pts only I wouldn't bother, he won't pass 50pts. He does a lot of things for multicat but not in pts only.

Andreas Johnsson is definitely the top choice here. ''Most return ratio to cap.'' like Newper114 the Giant said
I expect him to have around low 50 points. Kapanen the same - 48-53.
Fiala and Ferland around middle 40s aaand no one mentioned Haula?!? They guy had 55 points in his first season with Vegas but got injured last year. Now in Carolina I think he could return to that 50-55 points ranger and he cost just $1.1m.

Based on salary, my ranking

Johnsson
Kapanen - Fiala
Haula
Ferland

Ignoring salary and just straight point expectations:
Johnsson
Fiala
Kapanen
Haula
Ferland

I just don't see everything going right for Haula to repeat 55pts.
Fiala is much better than his season last year.
Kapanen could get the short end of deployment at 5x5 and see mostly 3rd line time
Ferland's not at the same level... unless Pettersson knocks several shots in off his head/ass.
