    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

    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.

    Colorado switched up their lines last game. Landeskog was paired with Duchene:

    #1 30.2% DUCHENE,MATT - LANDESKOG,GABRIEL - SODERBERG,CARL
    #2 26.2% IGINLA,JAROME - MACKINNON,NATHAN - TANGUAY,ALEX

    Even without the change I think I would go with Ladd in a 1-year.

    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!
