Would go with Labanc over Garland. Labanc had the highest upside entering the season. Although he hasn't delivered on that, I think there's still loads of potential. I'm still not quite sure what to make of Garland, though.
Hi Everyone,
I've got Garland, Labanc and Gurianov as my depth RW's. I've been rotating them in and out all season. I'll probably have room to protect one in my league. It's a 16 team league - keep 12 - so it goes fairly deep.
So, which one do you think is the best option in a points only league over the next 1-3 years? I feel Garland and Labanc are the same player. Great scoring pedigree in lower leagues, and have established themselves as decent 45-55 point producers at the NHL level. Some might argue that Garland hasn't established himself as anything yet. Gurianov is a touch below but he's got the first round golden boy status and he really wows with the eye test.
I'm leaning towards Garland (recency bias, as he's been hot) but I'd love to hear everyone's opinion.
Thanks.

I think Dobber's projection should be pretty close.
Garland: 75 pt upside 55 pt 3yr
Lebanc: 80 pt upside 63 pt 3yr
I'd suggest Lebanc is your guy.

I like Garland over Labanc.
Give me Garland... guy gets no respect.
He just keeps chugging along.
I feel more comfortable with him reaching his Dobber ceiling than Labanc.

In points-only I want Labanc.
