I think both players are good values right now but especially Staal- if you can pick up nice cards of either player now in late Aug or especially next month when most folks attention turns to football that would benefit you. I will be looking to stock up my showcases with both guys. The knock on Malkin is he takes stretches of games off and seems (and plays) disinterested at times. I do like Malkin's physical nature of play; he may have more of a mean streak that his "local" countryman, Ovechkin. As both a fan of game and a collector you gotta like that.........
