Default Okposo for Ladd

I\'ve been offered Ladd for Okposo. Both top 10 power forward draft picks, but Okposo seems to have the far greater potential down the road whereas Ladd is struggling early in his NHL career. Is Ladd a bust? Whats his potential goal-wise? And finally.....should I make the deal?

I would do it. Okposo looks like the real deal. That being said, Ladd could breakthrough this year. Over the long haul though I look for Okposo to put up 45-45-90 #\'s. Ladd tops out at 35-35-70....IMO...

I\'d keep Okposo over Ladd and wouldn\'t think twice about it.

Ladd\'s development has been slow, and the Hurricanes are already set for next season on the top two lines. He still has 70 point upside, but I\'d take Okposo easily.

You\'ve gotta keep okposo without a doubt... ladds a good power forward prospect, but okposo is the next coming of iginla. He is amazing in every respect, and he\'ll be able to make an immediate impact on this islanders team...

Ladd has to fight with old guys for ice time. Okposo. Open and Shut.
