    Default Keep Heponiemi vs. Vesalainen

    This is for my points only keeper in my signature.

    I own Heponiemi. Vesalainen is a free agent.

    I think Heponiemi has the slightly higher ceiling, but Vesalainen has the slightly better chance of sticking in the NHL.

    Ultimately, which prospect would you prefer to own over the long term?

    D: Bouchard, McAvoy, Morrissey, Heiskanen
    G: Vasilevskiy

    Tough one here. I think they are fairly even. I would probably lean Heponiemi. My reasoning would be that FLA seems to me to be less stacked at F than WPG, making Heponiemi's path a bit easier possibly. WPG top 6 is pretty locked in for a while it appears. Hoffman could leave in FLA via FA, opening up some space. Plus, the top 6 in FLA seems more fluid of a situation per say than WPG.

    I like Heppo

    McDavid/Necas/ Kucherov/Bjorkstrand/Rust/Nugent Hopkins/Cirelli/Zegras/- Letang/Morrissey/Dahlin - Swayman/Saros/Skinner

    Prospects include:
    McTavish/Clarke/Bordeleau
    Dumais/Korchinski/Hutson

    Don't worry I'm not going to say anything more than I have to. If that.

    I'd be more inclined to keep Heppo.
    Hoffman and Dadanov could both be gone after this season.
    If they don't make playoffs there could be even more of a change in the lineup.

    Vesalainen is the right choice here IMO.
