Jason Chen and Michael Amato answer a question from a listener: Would you trade Luke Hughes in a package deal for Adam Fox?
The Sleepers and Keepers fantasy hockey podcast hosts Jason Chen and Michael Amato answer your mailbag question:
Both Jason and Michael agree that Adam Fox is the superior fantasy player. Not only is he on a better team, he's the only premier power play option on the Rangers.

With +/- coming into play, that's certainly another edge Fox has on Hughes.
Looking ahead to the following season, Hughes will also have to contend with Dougie Hamilton for power-play minutes.
