Kuznetsov is probably the most talented, but he is very risky. His NHL career could be short if he even comes. I'd definitely go for Strome for limitless upside especially if he lines up with JT.
Keep 8 players each year. Start: 2 C, 2 LW, 2 RW, W, F, 4 D. Stats: G, A, +/-, PIM, PPP.
My probable keepers are E.Staal, J.Benn, A.Semin, T.Vanek, J.Voracek, D.Stepan and O.Ekman-Larsson.
I get to pick one player whose rights I own for free until he's lost his "amateur" status. So looking for the best long term keeper basically. I have it narrowed down to this group:
M.Scheifele
A.Barkov
R.Strome
V.Nichushkin
M.Grigorenko
S.Jones
E.Kuznetsov
Who would you take? Thanks!

Barkov since he owns the future first line with Huberdeau in FLA.

Barkov or Kuznetsov are the only two. I'll take Barkov because he has a more defined role.
I like Barkov the best here.
Barkov would be my first choice. Kuznetsov is too risky at this point even though he probably has the highest upside of them all.
