Description

Largely based on past 3 seasons.

A few notes before you cry that I left someone from your team off this list.

1. LD is arguably the strongest position in the league right now. Names such as Dahlin, Q Hughes, and Theodore just missed the cut, but they are top 10.

2. Ovechkin and Panarin are barely top 10 at LW (Ovechkin isn't period), Connor, Debrincat, Stamkos, B Tkachuk, etc etc are not nearly as dynamic offensively to be placed on this list.

3. Oiler fans will want my head on a stake for excluding Draisaitl, but the simple fact of the matter is that he is genuinely awful defensively and he does not drive play nearly as well as he needs to make up for it. Everyone at the C position here is better offensively (no, I don't care about points) and far better defensively, even though some may be slightly negative defensively.

4. Yes, Verhaeghe, Bratt, Meier, Weegar, Sprugeon, and Chabot are THAT good.

5. Sorokin is literally the only reason the Islanders are a decent team. Replace him with an average goalie and the Isles are a borderline lottery team. The goalie position in general is also very strong right now. Demko, Ullmark, and Oettinger just missed the cut.
