In a keeper pool, who would you rather have on your club for the long-term?

He's been an outstanding offensive player whereever he's played...
Sejna I think will be a bust, simply based on the fact that he's getting all his hype from putting up 2 points per game in NCAA when he's 24-25 years old...Abid was doing this in the QMJHL when he was 19.

While I probbaly would pick Sejna anyways, I think if Sejna was born in like, Flin Flon Manitoba, he would not be as hyped as he is now. I think the fact that he is a european, has worked to his advantage in terms of hype (and probably finances).
