    Default Who should I claim?

    Hi,

    For my league in signature, I have a claim remaining (must do it tous week). I will probably drop Kessel (too old, too expansive). I'm 1st (20pts ahead). Its a salary keeper so the age and salary are important. Nothing interesting for me in D or G, so I hesitate between these F :

    Danault : 1st line, now 1st PP, late bloomer (26)?
    Pearson : I dont understand how he maintains his pace but he keeps producing. Older of the list.
    Beauvillier : only 22, still getting better. What is his ceiling?
    Garland : only 23, a bit like Beauvillier. More PP time. Cost only 775k for another year!!

    I like Garland for the value/cost. What would be your pick?

    Is this a points only league? I don't see the league settings as your signature is not there.

    Anyway, it is hard to argue with the opportunity that is in front of Danault. He is not a sexy pick, but he is putting up the numbers to justify his cap hit. In the short term view I think he is the guy I would pick from that group.

    Now that I see your team I take back my answer. You have all kinds of depths at forward so you are looking to pick someone up for the future. In that case grab Conor Garland and cal it a day. Garland is cheap cheap cheap! He will be your 14th(?) F in a start 10F weekly league. Use that spot to save $7M (Kessel to Garland).

    Pearson on too long of a consistent point streak to steer away from IMO. Horvat is seemingly taking another step this season and Pearson directly benefits.
