Getzlaf vs Perry

Both are good. Getzlaf is a tad better though. Getzlaf led his team with a +32 compared to Perry's +12. Getzlaf also led the team with 82 points in 77 games compared to Perry's 54 points in 70 games. Getzlaf's point clip in the play-offs (.67). Perry's (.60). Getzlaf is better offensively and defensively.

Gomez vs Drury

Multiple Cup winners that both get it done in the play-offs and regular season. Gomez is a 70 point guy. Drury is a 60 point guy. Gomez's point clip in the play-offs (.71) vs Drury (.70). Gomez is 29 years old vs Drury 32. Gomez is more dynamic than Drury. Gomez also fit in the Big Apple better than Drury. Will he fit in better next year?
Gomez play-off line 10GP 4G-7A-11PTS
Drury's play-off line 10GP 3G-3A-6PTS
Gomez had more of an impact than Drury.

Morrow vs Richards

Morrow established himself in this years play-offs as a rising power-forward that throws the body with authority. Simply inspired the team to the Final Four with his physical play.
B.M Play-off line 18GP 9G-6A-15PTS
B.R play-off line 18GP 3G-12A-15PTS

Morrow is also responsible defensively. Richards while good is just not as good as Morrow is defensively.

1st off. Drury played with Forsberg in Denver. (AKA one of the most complete players the NHL has ever known). I give him credit,but not that much as you do.

BR brings in a more impressive PAST RESUME yeah,but he's still a career minus player(-57) vs BM(+119). I want a player that doesnt get beat defensively. Thats very important in today's game. BM plays a more complete game. BR does not. BM is also entering his prime. BR's career is on the decline. His last 3 seasons point totals 91-70-62. Will he drop below the 50 point mark? Its looking that way. 62 points is very low for a 7.8 million per year player.

Cogliano vs Hemsky

Hemsky is the franchise player right now. Cogliano is the future. Cogliano needs more seasons to truly bloom. Its Hemsky's time right now. The Oil rely more on Hemsky at this point in time.

Roy vs Vanek

Roy is the team leader. He posted 32 goals and 49 assists for 81 points this season. Roy is also steadily increasing his production. His last 3 seasons 57-63-81. Is Vanek over the pressure of his contract yet? You know he struggled mightily last season.

I'll take a complete player in Getzlaf than Perry,who struggles at times defensively.
