I\'m in a long-term keeper league. Only points for goals (1) and assists (1) from forwards and d-men. I had a horrible season last year and need major help up front in order to improve. I won the draft lottery and have the 1st overall pick.

For the last several months I have been absolutely sure that I would pick Peter Statsny (undrafted last year) with my pick, but now that the draft approaches I find myself second-guessing myself and wondering if I should pick someone with a potentially higher upside. I really need that 90-100 point guy in my line-up.

Here are some other players available:

1) Everyone from this year\'s draft (Kane, Turris, Gagne, Voracek etc.)
2) Peter Meuller
3) Bryan Little

Give me some advice here. What would you do?

In a keeper league.....

Little
Kane
Turris
Gagne
Mueller

Little by far over the rest. Incredible energy, great potential, unreal stats over the last 3 seasons, and a spot waiting for him next to Ovechkin. This is your 90-100 point guy.

bryan little is on the thrashers not capitals. either way hell end up next to kovie and hossa, so id also go with him. not a big mueller fan, so i really wouldnt give him much thought.

brain freeze, i meant kovalchuk

If Stastny is available id go with him no doubt. If not Kane,Little and Gagner are guys id consider since they should get a shot at the NHL this year.

if yo need a lot of points this year than there is only one choice...Stastny

you will need to wait on the others a couple of years for them to get close to 80 - 90 points
