But long term, over the next seven years, would you rather have a 30 goal, 55 point Olofsson who offers nothing else, or
a 30 goal, 65 point Meier who is also a better forechecker and not afraid to be physical.
Career totals-
Olofsson- 27 years old, 200 games, 64 goals(29PP), 73 assists, 137points, (-25), 41 hits. 0 playoff games
or
Meier- 26 years old, 407 games, 127 goals, (28PP), 145 assists, 272points, (-21), 690 hits, 35 playoff games
I think they are both going to be looking for $8million. I'll take Meier everyday of the week.
