I need your opinion. In a keeper's league, someone offered me Thomas Vanek for Ales Hemsky. Who of Vanek and Hemsky will have a brighter futur? Should I make the trade? Thanks

Reveille said:That's a toss-up if I ever saw one. Well, Hemsky is more safe at this point, but Vanek has probably one of the highest upsides in all of hockey.
It's up to you. Gamble or take the "safer" player? I would personally gamble here...
In terms of goal scoring, there's probably no other prospect with an upside as big as Vanek. Not even Zherdev.KingPurpleDinosaur said:"highest upsides in all of hockey"?
right...

The only problem is, it's very unlikely he reaches it.

Better goal scorer? Yes.CRAZY_FAN said:Better then Ovechkin, I doubt it....

This is all upside mind you.
Most people have Ovechkin pegged as a 30 goal player with intangibles that make up for any difference between other high scoring players.
He's supposed to be a Fedorov type, just a better leader and a better checker.triggrman said:?
I though Ovechkin was supposed to be a game breaking goal scorer, like Kovalchuk but better.
CRAZY_FAN said:He sure did not look like a 30 goals scorer in the world cup! 30 goals is good but this guy will put more impressive numbers in is NHL carrer if all fall into place. 50 goals is not out of question in my mind ! I think Vanek is good, dont get me wrong, but just not the best prospect !

Thank you for actually reading my posts.pavel datsyuk said:well in that case, i'd rather have fedorov over jagr...

He's been invisible.Eb0la11 said:Has anyone gotten the chance to see him in rocester in the first two games theyve had? I know that hes fired a decent amount of shots off but has nothing to show statistically for it yet... Hows he been playing? What type of player is he? More of a fast player or more of a dangler like datyuk with size?

Enoch said:He was pretty invisble against Milwuakee. Then again, he faced one of the best defenses in the league, with Hamhuis/Suter as a top pairing...
I might take Vanek here because you probably could pawn him off for a better package then you could with Hemsky. Who knows though....
