    Default Rantanen or Eichel?

    Was offered his Eichel(2)for my Rantanen(2). Feel like Eichel is probably better player, but for this year especially I’m hesitant. Other manager has Mackinnon. Thoughts??
    Rules:
    12 Team - H2H points
    Keep 5 (Keepers eat draft slots)
    Scoring:

    Skaters: G(1), A(1), +/-(0.5), PPP(1), SHP(1), GWG(1)
    Goalies: W(2), L(-1), SV(0.1), SHO(1)
    F:
    Rantanen(2), Scheifele(2), Aho(3), Panarin(3), Huberdeau(4), Trocheck(20), Kadri(10), Backstrom(7), Benn(12), Pacioretty(4)
    D:
    Carlson(4), Klingberg(6), Fox(19), Doughty(11), Theodore(6)
    G:
    Grubauer(6), Mrazek(7), Shesterkin(3), Hart(8), Kahkonen(x)

    Picks: 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20

    I take this trade in a heartbeat. Rantanen is good but Eichel is an elite talent. In a keep 5 he is a top 5-10 keeper option
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Eichel's talent is higher than Rantanen's. So def take Eichel's side.

    I don't think the gap is huge, but Eichel is definitely the better player. And in a keep 5 league (assuming we are talking about the league in your signature), you want to build the best core of 5 players that you can. And that's Eichel.

    Keepers:
    C - Matthews, Eichel, Hughes (LW), Pettersson
    LW - Kaprizov, Svechnikov (RW), Guentzel, Fiala, Keller (RW)
    RW - Marner, Meier (LW), Laine(C/LW), Jarvis (C)

    Ya my thought was I know Eichel is better but for this year which I’m def trying to win rantanen has a more favourable schedule with off-day games as well as an extra game in our fantasy playoffs, and I also have reinhart to hopefully catch a few of eichels points... and was debating is the trade off in talent from Rantanen to eichel that worth it to take this deal and give this guy mackinnon and rantanen as a 1-2 punch every avalanche game

    If you want to move Eichel for Rantanen, I'd be asking for Rantanen+. I still prefer Eichel though.

    Take Eichel and RUN!! Whether he stays in Buffalo or not, he is more than an elite talent. That kid is going to be a nightmare for a very long time.
