My choice would be Turcotte, but by your logic Byram sounds like a solid pick
I'm drafting tomorrow. I know Caufield will be given all the opportunities in Montreal, but I think I will go with Byram.
More points for D in my league, and my prospects pipeline is better on F side.
What's you choice ?
1) 16 teams full keeper H2H. Start 9F, 4D, 1G, 2 Championships
pts: (D : 7 pts G /5 pts A), (F : 5pts G /3 pts A), (G : 10 pts W / 5 pts SO), (D/F : 1 pt +/-, 0.5 pts PIM, 0.1 FOW, 0.2 Hits, 0.3 pts SOG, PP and SH).
Forward : Aho, Svechnikov, PLDubois, Giroux, Couture, Wheeler, Cozens, Karlsson, Vrana, Anderson,Greenway,
Defenses : Dahlin, Fox, Doughty, Toews, , Slavin, Miller
Goalies : Oettinger, Vanecek, Bobrovsky

Basically a 14g - 40a Dman = a 30g 50a forward.
I think that's a pretty reasonable line to expect Byram to hit...
Caufield I'd put more in the 40-40 area.
Also have to consider Turcotte, even with your boost on Goals. IMO... There's Hughes & Kappo - then Byram & Turcotte in their own second tier. He's on a different offensive level than even Caufield -- who right now appears pretty goal dimensional.
Regardless of analysis though... i think it's safe to say you need Byram most in your system.
Although TBH, i'm not big on anyone other than Oettinger, who's a long term hold anyway.

Interesting. I didn't realize Turcotte was that great...May be I will change my plan...
