I disagree. Can’t be assembled because of salary cap. Try again.

Patrice Bergeron has won defensive player of year like 5 times in a row I think he deserves it

you're always going to get a disagreement with a subjective statement/question like "best"

what constitutes someone as being the "best"?

I would disagree with this roster...

Subban?


Yes you could have put Subban on the roster but the only reason I didn't is because I was going for a healthy mix of left handed to right handed D.
I mean would he knock out Karlsson, Burns, or Doughty for one of the 3 spots.
Probably not.

It's true that Kessel is top 10 in scoring but say I put Kessel in who would I take out?
He's not better than any of the forwards already there.

But you gotta think though, who would I take out if I wanted to put Bergeron in.
He's not better than any of the 12 forwards listed there.

Why?
Which player do you disagree with?
Who should I have put on there instead?

Well obviously by my avatar I would have Getzlaf on that list... He's been injured most of this season, so his stats don't reflect, but I would argue that you don't have a shutdown line (which is just as important as a scoring line) I would probably have Getzlaf/Bergeron with either Benn or Gaudreau then sacrifice one scoring center and one right wing to fit them in probably Crosby and Wheeler/Kane and bump lines to move them down to the 4th line so it would look something like:

Ovi/McD/Kuch
Benn/Malkin/Kane
Stamkos/Tavares/Tarasenko
Johhny Hockey/Getz/Bergy

Still not my optimal set up, but it looks better already

Then on D you don't have Gostisbehere or OEL? I'd probably trade Josi and Keith TBH and rotate Burns to the top pairing

Hedman/Burns
Ghost/Karlsson
OEL/Doughty

Again not the "best" but you're looking better...

Then goalies... This is personal preference too... give me the choice and I start Rinne and back him up with Gibson (there are some things stats can't measure like Gibson's outstanding play behind a terrible Anaheim Ducks start this season; he still managed to maintain a .924 S% and a 2.55 GAA in spite no help at the beginning of this season)

see... "best" is subjective...
