tofes posted:This was a real hard pick for me. I have a list of about 10 centers and even though there's a winger I really want I don't know if any of the centers will make it back to me and I can't live with myself if I don't have a good second line center. Was really hoping he'd fall to me again like last year, him and Hoffman were the two centers I seriously thought about over Nylander. Ellis/Ekholm were the two defenders I thought about. Why are you guys being good at picking?

I wish I could find the drat thing but I saw a breakdown of the two over the four quarters of the year and Puljujarvi had a slow start but by the end I believe was out producing Laine. Laine had a great playoffs and his shot volume is absolutely bonkers though.

Good to see all the players I heavily considered over Stastny being selected right after.

Also figured I should actually write my pick in here. The Predators selected Paul Stastny as a playmaking center with a big contract that's luckily only good for two more years when he's 32. He has trouble staying healthy but when he is he's a fantastic playmaker, maybe at the cost of being a goal scorer. It also allows me to either move Nylander down to the third line or switch him to wing depending who I get for the top two right wing positions.

Gaudreau and Eichel were both younger and put up better seasons when they won the Hobey Baker, that's not really an accurate comparison. He's more similar to Drew Leblanc or Jack Connolly who also won in their senior years with a similar ppg total.

I don't know what I'm doing Gaudreau - Couture -? Kane - Stastny - Nylander ? - Letang ? - Johnson Stebe I really like my top six so far, playmakers and snipers and speedy players and I feel like Couture/Stastny is a solid one-two combo for the 30 games they'll both be healthy. Letang is an elite defenseman and puckmover and Johnson is no slouch as a second pair anchor/playmaker. Mason is a top tier goalie who will hopefully pick up the slack next year again. I'm not happy about my RW/LD positions and options coming up though.

Yeah I kept looking at Ryan and to a lesser extent Ceci for points but holy hell they both seem Not Good. Roll in Ryan's contract that goes til he's 34 and NMC so they can't even expose him in the expansion draft unless he agrees....... Ceci is at least young enough he could conceivably get better.

Brodeurs Nanny posted:Greene really fell off a bit last year. Still a solid pick at this stage but he's about to enter sharp decline I'm not so sure. He faced his toughest starts in a awhile and suffered for it. If they didn't give him every defensive zone draw he'd probably would've been the same. e: he was also one of about three defensemen I was considering so thanks for narrowing my options!

eXXon posted:dat HERO chart. But really his fancies are not good and he's likely being carried by Niskanen, although he was good at actual defending in the playoffs. I specifically wanted a guy who was good at shot suppression to pair with either of Letang or Johnson and Alzner is good at that. He's a left handed shot to pair with the right shot guys, is only 27, hasn't missed a game in half a decade. His numbers barely changed since Niskanen came so I don't know where you drew that conclusion. He got dummied in zone starts relative to his team but was still essentially a neutral possession player relative to his team. Alzner is cool and should pair well with Letang to let him roam while he limits chances against. e: also gently caress the guy who took Mikko Rantanen, thought he'd be safe til my next pick because I needed D.

He's 23 and his fancies are through the loving roof on a great team which bodes well. e: his offensive stats seem directly tied to Hedman/Stamkos, which makes sense and is fine for a third line guy but at least he can keep up and helps, but his effects on shot suppression with the big guys and away from them are fantastic.
