I'd roll the dice on Laferriere to save a couple million to spend up elsewhere.
In a cap league with goals, assists, PPP, Hits, blocks as the main categories, who do you prefer out of Evan Rodrigues and Alex Laferriere?
Rodrigues - $3m - Seems to be in the top 6 on the Panthers and PP2 unit.
Laferriere - $875k - On the first line and seemingly PP1 to start the season in LA but for how long?
In win now mode.
Thank you in advance.

I don't think this is close, Rodrigues. He is one of the better contracts in banger leagues, currently a 40 pt guy who shoots a ton, hits and racks up nice PP points for 3 mil. I honestly don't think Laferriere is in the same conversation. If you were building, OK maybe, I still don't like it, but given the age difference maybe you go with Laferriere, but in win now, no way IMO. If you want to save cap look at your roster and identify a "bad" contract to move. That's not Rodrigues IMO.
