Description
This team is comprised of players whom I believe aren’t as celebrated or popular as the superstars of the league but are much better than they’re generally given credit for.

I was inspired to do this after admiring Jared Spurgeon’s play tonight for the Wild; he has been a player whose game I’ve always appreciated in this league but is rarely discussed among the top defensemen in the NHL, although I believe he absolutely is.

Barabanov.

Definitely considered him but, I decided to show Tyler Johnson some love. He made one of the prettiest long range passes off the boards, perfectly in stride tonight to set up a goal, scored a goal and also had the GWSOG tonight and it reminded me of how good and forgotten of a player he is.

Thompson is not underrated, and Husso is overrated if anything. Husso has a negative GSAx per moneypuck; he is below average

Most hockey fans know how good Tage Thompson is but, he is still a lesser/unknown superstar generally speaking. Do you have a replacement suggestion?

I take it you don’t catch many Red Wings games? Husso has arguably been the MVP for the wings this year and in his last dozen or so games he’s been one of the better goalies in the NHL with a .923 sv pct and 2.37 gaa.

I’d recommend watching a Wings game when you have a chance.

A dozen good games does not make Husso above average for the whole season. The biggest knock on him last year was his wild inconsistency, and if he's only so close to average because he was buoyed by a hot streak, that means he was really bad to start the year. I think you might have a touch of homerism there.
