I jumped and took him in my fantasy league, but here’s why:

-He’s an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season, meaning he might get traded to be a top 6 on a contender.
-Even if he stays with the Oilers, he’s going to get top 6 minutes with some of the best young players in the game.
-At 22, he might be just scratching his potential, this could be the confidence he needed to put it all together.
-I’m in first place, have a ridiculous core of players, and can afford to take risks on guys like this (And an injured Sid Crosby/Mikko Koivu.)

I’m not old enough to remember the North Stars, but it’s hard to compare careers, especially when his son is only 22 and is already in his 5th full season. He is expected to be a lot better and he obviously has the potential. His father was probably a lot more consistent than his son.

Struggling to keep myself from taking him in my fantasy pool….
