You go with the guy who has more opportunity in games and that is Olofsson.

Eventually, gravity will win and Laine will own your sniper spot. Right now - given the hot hand & extra game - I'd go Olofsson - then you'll likely want to switch back next week.

Thanks all for the feedback. Ya, it can actually be a tough call in this format. Basically you want to make your sniper the guy whose points are more heavily skewed to goals vs. assists. If one guy gets 3 goals and no assists, and the other gets 5 goals and 4 assists, you're better off with the 3 goal guy as your sniper.
For those asking, the position came about when we made the tough (but correct) decision to eliminate a goon position a few years back. Felt we needed something a bit more interesting than just forward, defence, goalie. It's actually a Flex position of tagging one player as either a sniper (2x goals + 2x hattrick) or a playmaker (1.5x assists). Worked pretty well so far.... Often makes for some tough weekly decisions and gives some goal-heavy or assist-heavy players a bump in value.
Laine > Goalofsson.
