    I'm curious as well. Zibanajed was equal too or better than Larkin in most of those cats and now plays on a much improved team and pp. I'll take Zibanjed for the upcoming season. Larkin might have more long term potential but for right now I think you want Ziby.

    I'll take Larkin here. Both are good in this format but I think Larkin gets the slight edge.

    Larkin should win shots, pims, fow, goals, shp, points

    Toss ups are +/-, ppp, gwg.

    They are both very close mind you.

    I’m going to be a Zibby opinion here too. Larkin has Mantha and same team as a year ago, Zibanejad picked up a goal scorer to complement him, and I think has better upside. Detroit May be out of playoff consideration by November! NYR schools be far more motivated in anything-goes Metropolitan.

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    I am a big Ziba fan and long before his breakout last season. But I prefer Larking here. No hits, no blocks..those are categories that Zibanejad has the adventage over the most forwards... Larkin is the guy who should have the advantage on SOG category(one of the best in the league) Points/ppp - I think a lot of people are gonna be dissapointed in Zibanejad based on where they draft him. Because of his breakout season and the adds of Trouba, Panarin and Kakko, people will overdraft him, reach for him and be dissapointed based on that. He is gonna be a stud but not based on draft value I think.
    Larkin is kind of still underated as is the team around him. Mantha could be a breakout - the combination of the two could be deadly! Zadina could be a player this year and help Larkin's case. Rasmussen if hes better he could improve Detroits PP..a lot of underrated players on that team Larking included.
    Devils & Predators fan
