    Default Conundrum about Hischier

    For league not in sig. H2H salary cap (114.1mil) start 4C, LW, RW. Cats G=2, A=2, +/-=1, PIM=.5, PPP=1, SHP=3, HTS=.2, BLK=.5

    My current centers are Seguin, W. Karlsson, Benn, Hischier, and Cirelli. My current right wingers are Voracek, Marner, A. Svechnikov, Batherson and Byron.

    Now, what is everyone's outlook on Hischier now that Hughes is there? This is my issue (among others) is I have the first overall pick. Do I try and shop Hischier for another good, young right winger then draft Hughes? Or, do I keep Hischier and just draft Kakko?

    I have no idea what is the better way to go and I am looking for opinions. Really appreciate it. Rep where I can.

    Hischier is going to be fine, he's a very effective two-way center who should be guaranteed ice time with some talented wingers in the future with Jersey (assuming Hall signs). I think you could explore shopping someone like Cirelli since he's on a great contract if you want to take Hughes and bolster your centers long-term, but I would be considering Kakko with your categories. You start 8 wingers daily, and elite ones are much harder to acquire than centers. He's probably going to bring more to the physical categories than Hughes, so that's another boon to his value. I just think he's the better choice in a lot of leagues, especially if you're looking to compete right now.

    I don't want to go against mounD but I would draft Hughes with the 1st overall pick. I will probably try to shop both Hischier and Cirelli and trade whoever get me the better offer.

    I'd keep hischier and then talk to the manager with second pick. if he wants Hughes maybe he'd throw something in for you to leave him Hughes and toy grab kakko.

    Take the one two punch and don’t look back. They will both produce and be good. The devils are becoming a threat and fast

    NJ just added a high end winger... gives them two really good lines... Just take a look around the NHL... really good teams have 2 C's that produce

    I did this. Thanks for the advice. I traded Karlsson for Hoffman and will draft Hughes.
