Since its a keep 5 and most likely wont be keeping either one of those guys as KEEPERS I would say Ladd for this season. If it were a full keeper I would say Landeskog for long term
For the multi-cat league in my signature, who would you prefer for this year and why?

I'll take Landeskog in a 1-year or a keeper. The kid gets better every year and Colorado depends on his production. Ladd is no slouch as he is a great multi-cat player as well, but in this particular case, I feel Landeskog has a slight edge.

With Duchene's impressively hardcore suckage over the first month, that first line has been relied on for everything. Landy is in a good situation with MacKinnon, would definitely want him
Landeskog for me as well. His hits may be a tad lower than Ladds at this time but both will end up with a decent amount. I prefer Landeskog on the offensive end by a little bit.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
So 2 for Ladd, 3 for Lando. It's a tough call and I find myself leaning towards Lando a bit, but I have realized his HIT totals aren't just a "tad" lower than Ladd's, they are far lower than him and have gone down for several years consecutively. But I do agree that Lando's offensive upside is slightly higher.
And what about the lines they play on? Lando usually with Mackinnon, but last game he was with Duchene. But Ladd's line has been one of the most productive in the league, with Wheeler and Little who are all tearing it up offensively. I'm having a tough time with this one, folks!
Thanks for your input thus far!
