Whom Would You Rather Have?

C Pierre Turgeon
A former 50-goal scorer, the 6'1" 194-pounder averaged 27 goals for the Blues over the past four seasons and, at 31, wants a raise over last year's $5 million salary upon becoming an unrestricted free agent on Sunday.

C Jeremy Roenick
A two-time 50-goal scorer, the 6-foot 205-pounder averaged 28 goals for the Coyotes over the past four seasons and, at 31, wants a raise over last year's $5 million salary upon becoming an unrestricted free agent on Sunday.

THE VERDICT: Turgeon's gritty, productive play in the postseason over the past few years has increased his value, but our choice would be the effervescent and more complete Roenick.
