From all available, Which 2 Rookies would you want ROS

[everfeb]

EDIT...sure would appreciate hearing a few more opinions. Have to have my picks in by 8:30 pm today (Saturday).
It's just 2 Rookies...forward or D-man, doesn't matter. Thanks.

Hi guys.

Can't take Olofsson - Buffalo. Otherwise, any 2 can go on my roster. I'm not sure especially since Kakko and J. Hughes
aren't exactly lighting it up yet.

Points only G-1 A-1. Skaters only.

Big concern here is that my Rooks get sent down after 9 games as to replace would cost me having to use one of my very valuable 6 SWAPS for the year. So need points but also someone who is going to be in NHL for the year.
If my rook gets injured I can replace him with any other rook in NHL (except Oly) with out using one of my Swaps. If a rook is doing poorly would then have to use a SWAP to drop him and add another Rook.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts on Rookies. Thanks guys. Will Rep who I can.

The thing is the season is only a few games in and these Rookies are just getting used to the league right now for the most part so it is really hard to judge who is off to a slow start and the guys like Olofsson who are on fire. I would still think cuz I think the NHL Scouts know a heck of a lot more than me that players like Jack Hughes or Kappo Kakko would be the guys to have. As for Goalies Mac Blackwood and Elvis Merzlikins are the ones.

How is rookie defined in your league? If Gusev counts as a rookie, I'd take him. He won't be sent down. I just don't know if your league has an age limit, like the NHL. Or if you can take any guy new to the NHL...

Thanks als_revenge.

Sorry, should have mentioned, our Rookies are defined by NHL rules. They can be forwards or d-men. No goalies.

Here is a list of those available:

I don't see Gusev listed.

Yeah, Gusev is 27 and the NHL rookie cutoff is 26. My other thought was Makar, if you need a D man. Given your rules, I kinda like going for guys that aren't 18. But with starting only 4D, you might not need him.

My 2 Rookies can be forwards, d-men, doesn't matter. Just looking for thoughts on 2 who should spend the season in the NHL AND get some points (the more the better
LOL.)

If Makar is one of your picks?? do you have a 2nd pick as Gusev isn't rosterable? Thanks

Thanks.
