Personally, I would take Bergeron over Getzlaf when you consider cap and everything they bring to the table. Getzlaf will put up more points, but Bergeron is a top 3 defensive forward and arguably the best face-off man in the league. There is no one in the league I'd want more to take a draw in the defensive zone with 10 seconds left than Patrice Bergeron.
