FWIW since we were talking standings the other day : Dom with the Athletic (does lots of his own stat tools) has the Pens 2nd in the Metro behind Pitt. The Hurricanes he has as the 21st place team in the league
Again, this is one of my issues with the stats communities. With their current team who else has the Jackets as a top 3 team in our division? Not replacing all those guys is absolutely going to have an impact on their QoT
You would take a Barkov-Price combination over a Matthews-Bobrovsky one? You got to be kidding. At least you are consistent. I have always considered Price, like Lundqvist, to be slightly overrated.
The Atlantic Division is pretty strong on goalies. Bobrovsky, Vasilevsky, and Rask are all better than Price and at least at the moment, probably better than all the Metro division goalies. In the case of the latter two there are too many other good players on their teams to take them for this exercise (I would take Bergeron over Marchand any day, though) but to pass up Bobrovsky in order to take Barkov is crazy.

Haha... forgot Bob was down in Florida... maybe he did too
There are some questionable picks but I can see the reason behind them.
But no Hedman on team Atlantic? I can’t agree with that - QuickSCF
Yeah definitely. Hedman has to be a lock and after what Rask just did in the playoffs how can he not be your goalie? He was unreal. Here’s my team opposite of RWs, so obviously I can’t take any of the same players

Can’t forget that you can only take on player from each team so if he’s taking Barkov then he can’t take Bob and if he’s dead set on taking Kucherov then no Hedman

I can't find this article, do you have a link? - Tojo.
My mistake. It’s Sean’s chart, Dom commented that his is similar. Not sure what every team looks like exactly but with De Haan injured Chicago only has 5 d men in his matrix 🤷🏼♂️
