Yeah that's a no brainer for me. Ostlund all day.

Ostlund is a lot of fun to watch, but for me he's a bottom 6 playmaker/perimeter player. In my viewings every time someone skates towards him he immediately gets rid of the puck.

Geekie on the other hand is constantly absorbing contact and hanging onto the puck before making plays. He shows no fear for pending contact. I also think his skating issues are being way overblown. When he's engaged he absolutely plays with NHL pace. I keep thinking back to this clip:

Went with Geekie as I'm not a big Ostlund fan. Ostlund gives me serious Tyler Ennis vibes and not in a good way.

How is it not a good way? He’s a multi sport athlete!!
