    I take Barkov. When Mikko puts up 96 points I’ll consider him before Barkov

    That is tough. At the moment I would probably say Rantanen with Barkov 2nd also. All though long term I think I like ELias P. better than both. You can't go wrong either way really , but Barkovs injury history concerns me as well.

    Please help with mine, thanks:

    Mikko Rantanen at the moment has a contract dispute which scares me. I love what Elias Pettersson can provide. He would be my #1 choice followed by Barkov.

    Yeah... its concerns me too! I really like the chemistry between rantanen and big mack but barkov play with some really good winger too.

    You think EP can put 95+ someday like Barkov and probably Rantanen?

    I definitely do. Especially with Boeser there. But a lot still has to go right for that to happen. Boeser probably also needs to stay healthy, which he's had some issues with. That Mack and Rant combo is a proven commodity and will be dominant for a long time.

    The way you have them listed looks good. Without the contract dispute I might put Rantanen ahead of Barkov because I do not see him repeating that 96 pt season. I also really like Petersson...what a great rookie season he had!

    In situations like this, I usually try to go with the player I Will enjoy owning the most over the course of time. Im a Ranger fan, so I tend to favor some of their players. Well, not as much before this year heh. But if you would enjoy owning Elias, and if youre a big fan of his, while its a bit of a gamble, the upside is still there.
    There are some players I just dislike also, whom if I did own, I would try to trade. Skinner, Kane and Seguin among others.
    But yea, since you probably wouldn't be going wrong with any of those players, even if some are riskier than others, I say go with your heart. Plus, Elias could theoretically still be even better than both Rant and Barkov even. So the gamble also has a possible payoff in that sense.
