Konecny vs Forsberg

[GinFizz]

You also mentioned his IPP, and I think that's an important thing to look at. He's not likely to replicate 23 PPP. Even if we assume he's taken that fourth year step, it's likely that those numbers will fall.

Why is it likely his PP numbers will fall?

[lucafen4]

Agreed. it puts him in the upper tier of ppp/pts ... but to say it's not sustainable isn't entirely accurate.

[Fighting_Emu]

True.

I feel like Konecny gets more via trade.

It feels like FF has been around forever but hes only 26. Wookie convinced me- Im keeping him- lol! Id love to see what hed do on a different team. if Craig Smith pops this year it proves my theory that forwards lose 10-20 points of upside if they end up in Nashville but gain 0- to 1.0 hot country singer wives.

I've tried shopping both of them. Surprisingly there hasn't been much traction (although a lot of the teams in my league are rarely checking in right now, given that hockey is in its' quiet period).

The consensus shifts towards Konecny, however most would agree that it's very close (which is why I brought them up as comparables in the first place ). I'm going to keep shopping both and deal whoever nets me the best D-man in return.
