    Default Eichel or Huberdeau?

    Hi,

    13 teams dynasty pool, 14 players, 6F, 3D, 2G, 3 backups of any position. Point only.

    Forwards and Defensemen, 1 point for goal or assit
    Goalies, W=2 pts, OTL=1 pt, SO=3 pts

    I’m contending this year.

    Who do you prefer? Jack Eichel or Jonathan Huberdeau?

    Do you think Eichel has the next gear to become a 100 points player? Could Huberbeau repeat his 100 points season in Calgary?

    Eichel is also 3 years younger.

    I can't pick Eichel after the last few seasons but if you wanted to take a risk and got an offer of Eichel++ for Huberdeau, it may be worth considering.

    Im going Huberdeau. He is the safer pick to be around 100 Pts for the next 2-3 seasons.

    I have Eichel and I could get Huberdeau one on one. I'm afraid to trade Eichel before seeing what he could do with a great linemate like Stone. Before all his injuries, his potential was very high and he was improving every year. 78 pts in 68 gp 3 years ago and he was alone in Buffalo. He's also 3 years younger. Bad production last year when he get back but he was not in game shape. But almost everybody seems to prefer Huberdeau.

    Big decision for me!

    I own Eichel in a points-only league and if Huberdeau was offered to me straight up, I would accept without blinking.
    Huberdeau is not an old player, still very much in his prime, and he has way less red flags imo.
    Points-only keeper league. 12 teams. Keep any 12 players. Dress 12F - 6D - 2G.

    Love Eichel but go with the Low risk options. If Eichel reaches his full potential he won’t be much better

    If you're talking about this year only, I'd probably take Huberdeau. But over any kind of longer term, I think Eichel is the better player and will ultimately win out. But given the uncertainty around Eichel, I would think any trade involving Huberdeau would likely include some kind of "plus" on the Eichel side.
    12 Teams, 23 Players (max 3 goalies), H2H, Keep 15 (max 2 goalies)
    2C, 2RW, 2LW, 2F, 1U, 4D, 2G, 8 Bench, 2 IR+
    G, A, +/-, PIM, PPP, HIT, BLK, W, SV, SV%, SHO

    Keepers:
    C - Matthews, Eichel, Hughes (LW), Pettersson
    LW - Kaprizov, Svechnikov (RW), Guentzel, Fiala, Keller (RW)
    RW - Marner, Meier (LW), Laine(C/LW), Jarvis (C)
    D - Dahlin​, Sergachev, Theodore, Klingberg, Werenski, Peeke, Cernak
    G - Shesterkin, Sorokin, Merzlikins
    IR - Pacioretty, Ristolainen

    2023 Draft Picks: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

    Huberdeau for me.

    Dobber wrote about why he’s so high on the points only keeper rankings and he hit the nail on the head. Find those ramblings if you have a moment.

    I like Eichel but he’s got a lot of flags including his injury history. Plus, I think Vegas is a gongshow, as someone mentioned above. I think it’s going to soon be a reality that players just don’t want to play in Vegas, largely because of how the organization treats players. It makes me shake my head at Eichel’s possible career. Buffalo was a disgrace when he was there. Now Vegas is trending down (while Buffalo is trending up).

    Huberdeau is what you hope Eichel becomes, and isn't injury prone.
