Which center do I want?

[random-d]

I drafted a yahoo standard 12 team league for fun and picked up Marchand at 137th. He's on IR now and I need a center, so I'm pondering the following options;

Hischier
Johanssen
Hartman
Barzal


Also considered these as potential sleeper picks with big updside but not necessarily looking to take a risk yet unless there's a consensus opinion that one of them is not as risky as I percieve.

McMicheal
Barbashev
Mercer
Beniers

My other centers are Rantanen, Hintz, Hertl.

Pick Up Nico Hischier.

Toss up between Hischier and Hartman. I like Hartmans surroundings better at 5v5, but NicoÂ’s on PP1. Both offer similar upside, I lean Hirschier imo!

[Wotan]

You have to go with Hischier here imo. Similarly high floor like Barzal and Hartman and certainly the highest ceiling of the guys mentioned.

From the second list I'd go Mercer. He might not have as high an individual upside as Beniers, but tge wait should be shorter and his supporting cast will be way better if/once he gets on a line with either Hughes or Hischier.
And no, I'm not a NJ fan
