Note this is not asking who is the better player, just who is having a better season so far?
Ellis has outscored Brodie by 2 points thus far, HOWEVER, Brodie plays almost no PP time, and has far better 5on5 and overall even strength production (Factor in non-PP situations, it's even better in Brodie's favour).
Ellis has 6 5on5 primary points, and Brodie has 10. Brodie's relative and raw possession metrics are far better than Ellis'. Ellis plays with an arguably better offensive partner as well in Josi rather than Giordano.
Also for what it's worth, Brodie has more Ozone faceoffs than he begins in the Ozone, showing he's able to stay out of the Dzone more often than Ellis does, as Ellis has less Ozone faceoffs than he begins in the Ozone.
For me I'd definitely say Brodie has been better this season.
