Rinne had an absolutely awful season, but I'd still throw him in here - he's had a great prior 3 seasons. He's still better than Riikola and Maata.

Teuvo is a lot better defensively that Aho, while Aho is only slightly better offensively

Rask had a vezina calibre season

Rantanen is a better goal scorer and better defender

Barkov was an absolute beast last year, and this was a slight down year for him, but I can see an arguement for him being better than Aho

I went with 12F, 6D, 2G and a spare. The spare being Koskinen

Snape is more the unsung hero. King of like Aho. If he would be canadian and would play for team with a market bigger than an average OHL team, he'd be rated higher

If you consider Snape to be an unsung hero, than Teuvo is Snape.

Ok, I didn’t know you were doing postitions.

As for KK, he wasn’t an AHLer at all. He was a guy who was going through a slump, while in the midst of injuries. He got sent to Laval to boost his confidence, and because the habs weren’t going to make the playoffs.

Barkov Aho are 1-2 because they play the most impactful and are 2 of the 10-15 best C in the league. I’d put Heiskanen 3, Rantanen 4, Turbo 5.

I wouldnt call them top 10 centres. Id say they are somewhere in the 13-16 range

But Turbo is definitely a top 10 RW

By top 10-15 I meant 10-15 not not 1-9. I think top 3 is a pretty much a consensus in McDavid, MacKinnon, and Sid. Then I would say Draisitl is kinda by himself at 4, then Matthews and Eichel (in whatever order you want), I think you could make an argument to slot them anywhere in a big group of guys like Malkin Zibanijad Barzal Point Stamkos (if you want to list him as a C) Tavares Seguin ROR Schiefle Peterson (though you could make a case for him with Eichel and Matthews) Courtiere Bergeron Kopitar Toews
