    I think Kaprizov. But it’s hard to tell after so few games. Connor is great. But Kap to me looks like he could be elite. And I wouldn’t exactly say Connor is elite. Just a smidge or so below. But he can always still jump another level.

    But Kap to me kind of looks like he could reach that Laine, top 30 type tier. Based on skill and what I’ve been able to catch.

    Connor definitely safer option at the moment though.

    Kap, risk/reward.

    This pretty much sums it up. We don't know what Kap is yet but imo i'll take Connor here all day and let his new owner worry about what might be

    That’s tough. I own Kap and not sure if I’d let him go 1 for 1 Connor. If anything Id try to package him with someone else for someone better than Connor. I like what I’ve seen in Kap and think at worst he becomes Connor and potential for more. So if I were offered the same trade I prob keep Kap.

    Kyle Connor for me too. Maybe at some point, Kaprizov gets to his level, but until that happens, I'll take the young, known entity.

    Jokes, I'm taking Connor. I rather have Connor than Kap right now. This is flavour of the week vs tried and true type of question. I wouldn't over think it and I'd take Connor.

    The above. But also, in none of my leagues has Connor ever finished in the top 60 All multicat, similar scoring to league above. In fact, Connor only finished top 100 once in my leagues. He's an excellent scorer. An elite goal producer. But not an elite player or point producer even. And he doesn't really add any peripherals. But yea, hes a much SAFER choice than Kap. But I think Kap offers more risk reward and a ceiling of. what looks to me like, an actual elite player. I am talking about guys with the ability to put up 100 points any given season. Guys who finish in the top 30 in fantasy scoring. And guys who offer peripherals, which I think Kap might do to an extent. Connor can still jump up another level sure. But I don't think that is guaranteed. He might be a 70 point player with light peripherals his whole career at this point. Which is great, but wouldn't label it elite. And Connor plays with actual elite talent. If he can't crack the top 50 or with those players around him, I can't call him elite yet, if ever. But I think Kap could legit score similar numbers eventually on a terrible Minny team. Wouldn't blame anyone for taking Connor though. He's much safer, higher floor.

    Kyle Connor without a doubt.
    Top 15 scorers don't come around very often.
    As good as he looks, Kaprizov is still rolling the dice.
    Points-only keeper league. 12 teams. Keep any 12 players. Dress 12F - 6D - 2G.

    You take the guy that was on pace for 84+pts last year vs. the guy with 4pt in 3 NHL gp.

    I love KK, but I think the hype is getting a little crazy. I wouldn't doubt if pt/gm is now Connor's floor moving forward.
    I do believe KK is a pt/gm player, but will he get there THIS year? and does he have more than that?

    Personally, I think in 2yrs you'll still be able to trade KK for Connor but not the other way around.
