Easy Reject? Crosby for Benn

[snowball]

I would go for Benn fantasy wise..but your league doesn,t seem to count hits.

Benn > Crosby in HITS
Crosby > Benn in PTS
Benn = Crosby in SOG, PIM

Fantasy wise go for Benn. If both play 82 games, probably may probably outscore Benn by 5-10 pts MAX. Is that worth the Double in HITS that Benn will provide? SOG, PIM, and other cats +/- is also fair to say they will be very close between both..both can surpass the other at any given year.

Also Benn has LW whereas Crosby is C..wayyyyy easier to find a good C vs a good LW.

Quick reminder, Benn currently has a 34,6% shooting percentage right now, his career average is 13%.

Quick reminder, Benn is the reigning Art Ross Trophy winner, and is tied to the hip of a 23 year old kid named Seguin who will be a future Art Ross Trophy winner.

Not saying I'd do the deal 1 for 1, but I would certainly see what I can get.

I think the days of Crosby being placed on a pedestal above everyone else are numbered and if I were a Crosby owner in a keeper, I'd be looking to monetize him (once he heats up again) while his brand value is still up there.
