Ekblad or OEL
I recently traded for Ekblad but had my choice between him over OEL mainly due to age and insurance for Yandle who I think Ekblad will take over soon on PP1? Good choice? I’m sure I could flip back him for OEL instead if I’m way off.

Re: Ekblad or OEL
Ekblad >> OEL. He's younger, scores more, and is growing on a team that is moving forward. Arizona is in a bad cap situation with draft pick punishment, and they couldn't trade one of their most valuable guys, so OEL is sticking there, until he gets willing to allow himself to be moved.

Agree with Gamer. Ekblad >> OEL.
Re: Ekblad or OEL
Ekblad is the right choice.
This up coming season he should start seeing more of that #1 PP assignment.
I am behind Ekblad that this season he breaks 50pts.
Re: Ekblad or OEL
Ekblad was on pace for 50 last season without PP1. His situation reminds me a lot of Hedman's early years. In one of my pools I was able to grab big Vic off FA when his owner got sick of the 20pt seasons and had written him off as a non-offensive workhorse.
That said I'm not super confident Ekblad takes over on PP1. Yandle's still got three seasons at a decent cap hit and that's basically all he does anymore
