    Default Who would you rather have - Provorov or Klingberg?

    Had posted a more detailed question awhile back but no replies so I'll go simple - who would you rather have going forward between Provorov and Klingberg? I need to choose one to use a franchise tag on in our cap dynasty league. The other I'll try and flip to recoup some assets.

    Bonus question - I have to decide if I want to extend Robert Thomas this year as this is his extension year under our league format. This year has been disappointing, how you feeling about his future in next few years?

    Thanks!

    I really thought Provorov would have been further ahead fantasy wise by now. He's 24 but seems like he should have cracked the 40 point mark more than once. Upside is still there but how high? Meanwhile Klingberg, if he plays 70+ games he's a surefire 10+ G and 50+ points on that team. I would say he outperforms (except blocks) Provorov for at least the next 4 years. As for Thomas I would give him another contract even tho he didn't do much this year. He's 21 and still waiting to see where he fits in on that roster. Good luck

    Lets look at it this way, IMO, Klingberg is a top pairing defencemen. Provorov is a 2nd pairing defencemen. I think Feenom's analysis pretty much speaks to that. While it does take defencemen a little longer to hit their stride so to speak, we do have a fairly large sample size here with both these guys and I really don't think what we have already seen is going to significantly change.

    Absolutely sign Thomas. He has already demonstrated the kind of player he can be, but like a lot of young guys, he needs the consistency and that should come with more games played.

    Klingberg for sure. Ivan is a great dman but hes not an offensive dynamo so his PP1 slot is not secure
    One day I will quit fantasy hockey, today is not that day.

    Fantasy hockey the choice is Klingberg but I think the better player is Provorov.
