I'm sold on Khaira over Lander. For the mere fact that his size gives him the opportunity to make an impact at the NHL level. Lander, he's a lost cause. He's too small and slow to be an effective NHL checker. And he doesn't have the skills to be even an average 4th line producer. I like his character and work ethic, but he's simply not an NHLer.
Is Khaira? We don't know yet either, but atleast he still has the potential to be one. Lander's had a lot of icetime and chances in the big leagues to prove he belongs.
Hendricks however, I still think brings more to the table than Khaira currently. But it wouldn't be hard to surpass what Hendricks brings eventually.
I feel like the current Hendricks hasn't brought anything to the table this season. I can't even think of any decent scoring chances that he's helped to generate, good cycles, or even decent hits. JJ did all of that last game and every game that he's played in. JJ looked alright when he played in the Top-6 with Hall, Ebs, and Nuge.
