Id take (patrick) Kane and Halak. Since your league doesn't count hits or SOG Id say the deciding factor is the goalies and Halak knows how to throw a shutout. Varly might get more wins because halak splits time with elliot but he needs to stay healthy to do that and he doesnt always like to be healthy. Kane looks good this year, OV could breakout though but ill take the chance that halak throws a ton of SOs this year.

I like the Halak/Kane side by a fair margin. Halak will get a few less starts likely than Varlamov, but STL is a win machine in comparison with COL. The G situation alone makes this savory, but getting Kane [who looks like PPG player this year] for an under-achieving Ovi [who right now we'd be thrilled if he even got to 65 points] makes this a steal for you.

More importantly it addresses a critical area of weakness on your roster...maybe 2 areas [if you count Ovi].
