Default Who to choose from?

I took Doan, but am looking to trade him in for one of the following players. I want a guy that has the best chance of breaking 70 points and possibly 75+.

Tuomo Ruutu
Jonathon Toews
Petr Sykora
Tim Connelly
PM Bouchard
David Legwand
Mike Comrie

Suggestions?

this year, Sykora. He\'ll be playing with Malkin or Sid, and should get some PP time with them

Yeah. He\'s on the top of my list right now. I expect him to be close to 70.

And as a Pens fan it would make a decent pick, but his upside isnt as high as some of the other players.

I like Doan... but with other good players.

Bouchard should be close to the 70pts mark and with Drury and Briere gone, Connolly can also break that mark if he can stay healthy. But Sykora is a good option as well.

I\'m not as high on sykora as some people... until he proves himself, I won\'t recommend him as anyone\'s fantasy savior. Last year around this time, everyone was like OHHHHH Colby Armstrong, YOU\'RE MY HERO! You\'RE AMazing! Blah Blah... look what he did.

I know that sykora has had a more consistant longer career than armstrong, and won\'t as likely be a bust, but you know where I\'m headed.

I\'d take Bouchard. He\'s consistantly improved and I think he\'s the most likely to get 70 points. I don\'t think he has the possibility of getting much more than that, but if you\'re looking SOLELY for the \"likelihood\" that they\'ll get 70, then I think he\'s your guy.

Without a doubt, Sykora could get 85, but he could also bust. Until he develops chemistry it\'s hard to say for sure.

But if you\'re just looking for a guy who will do well for your team every time he plays, go with bouchard... he\'s the most proven, sure thing.

Sykora is really appealing of course but I also like Bouchard a lot. The guy just turned 23.

Like a poster said before me, Armstrong was all hype last year. Too many risks come with what I call «parasit players». He can be injured, his linemate can be injured or he can be switched on another line.

RECAP : Go with Bouchard

one year league? Sykora is the no-brainer choice. Crosby is going to add 20-30 points, and it wouldn\'t surprise me to see him break 80 points.

I\'d Bouchard in a keeper league. He still is inconsistent in terms of production, but in a few seasons will be one of the top playmakers in the game. It will be interesting to see if he gets any time with Demitra and Gaborik.

I\'d take Toews if it was a keeper league, but he won\'t hit 70 points this year in my opinion. I like Bouchard, but his prodcutivity depends on Gaborik\'s health... if Gabby is injured (which is often the case) Bouchard\'s production spikes, if Gabby is healthy, Bouchard doesn\'t put up as many points

So toews is gone.

And I have Gabby (got him 6th round with 12 GMs) so I dont want to bank on him being hurt (for karma)

Also, I have Erik Cole. I am hoping for 70-75 from him. So...Doan or Cole? Im definitely thinking Cole, although I want Doan to succeed.

Im still leaning towards Sykora. Id love to take the chance on Connolley, but im not sure if he has an 80 point season in him just yet... or a long term career.
