Really eh, I must like Kotkaniemi more than most. I figured Kakko would take this, but I thought it would maybe be something like 75-25.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

The center

Kakko right now, but Kotka has development at a great pace over the last 12 months.

Kakko pretty easily. He's gonna be a stud

 

[Rockomax]

Love Kotkaniemi. But I would take Kakko, although it might end up closer than people think in the long run.

 

[Jyssy]

BPA which is Kakko.

depends what your team needs, Kakko has much more game breaking ability than Kotka, but maybe Kotkaniemi will be the more effective NHL player. Lets wait and see how Kakko translate and if he plays wings or center.

But obviously if you have to gamble but take Kakko.

Always the shinier, newer option.

Sometimes I tell my friends or family or co-workers about HFBoards and most of the time people don’t believe these opinions actually exist until they see it with their own eyes.

Wouldn't the gamble be on the already NHL player ?

the gamble would be on a guy that has more game breaking ability but hasn't prove anything at the NHL level, Kotkaniemi is right now the safest pick of the 2. Kotkaniemi is my pick for Montreal since april, i love the kid. Kakko on the other hand has more offensive upside but we don't even know if he's a center or winger at the point, Kotkaniemi without being super fancy, could turn out to be a Bergeron type of Center and these type of Center stabilize a team big time.

 

[Addison Rae]

Kakko of course

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Kakko. Pretty easily.

 

[Ace of Hades]

Kakko.

Would love to have him as EP or Horvat's winger.

 

[Bouboumaster]

Kotkaniemi, because we need center badly. If it wasn't because of that, probably Kakko.
