Staal, Eric

Radulov, Alexander

Stastny, Paul


Thanks

I love Staal for sure on this one-He already has a 100pt season under his belt!A bit of a drop off this year but he\'s young and Brindamour\\Whitney can\'t live forever.A bird in the hand bud!!!I think Stastny will be great,but I KNOW Staal is.

Radulov gets my vote. He has a good chance of being a top 5 fantasy player.

What kind of league are you in that it comes down to picking between those talented players? It would be great to pick them all.

I\'m with Wildhendy. proof is the best, or course there was a lower production last season, but it should up again next season.

Absolutely, positively, Alexandr Radulov. This kid has the potential to light up the NHL for years in ways that Staal and Stastny (for all of their merit) will never approach. Yes, Staal is the safest bet, but Radulov\'s got (as reeveta says) top-five fantasy potential. As in: Crosby, Ovechkin, Malkin, Radulov, Thornton. In that order.

i\'m lucky enough to have stastny in my keeper pool but i must agree thatv radulov appears to be cream of the crop.

Smart choice is Staal based on track record to date - but I do believe that Radulator will be the winning choice. I think he is going to get the green light and it will be a lot of holy smoke.
