Drai and Point are playing as wingers, so I didn’t count them. The 10 scratches are not in any particular order, only the top 20.

id probably take most on the scratch list over Miller at centre. He is more of a winger and isnt good at centre

I would def not have JT miller in the top 20...I would take any of the scratches over him. I would also slide Tage up a few slots but that is just knit picking. Solid list.

Point plays center not wing. While I believe Stamkos is a natural center, this season he's playing second center behind Paul. He plays wing unless the draws are on his strong side on the right side of the ice.

Miller too high. Hardly a true center. Hischier should be on the list.

He’s playing as a centre right now and Vancouver has rotated him around enough. I don’t care that much for Miller but I assumed I get blasted if I demoted him out of the top 20.

Tampa line combinations had Point as a RW to Stamkos.

If VAN really had 2 of the top 20 centers in the league they wouldn’t be this bad. And no way is EP better than Thompson, Hughes and Zibs.

And although I think Stamkos should be playing every game at center, and he's a natural center, that just isnt the case this season as Nick Paul is playing great at center and the line combinations for tampa are working really well so Stamkos has stayed at 2LW

? Tavares is right around a point-per-game player, which is pretty much where he's been for his entire career. And in his first year as a Leaf he almost scored 50, which was definitely his best year.

If Tavares is a top 20 center, he's closer to 20 than he is 10.

If you watched a second of Canuck’s hockey, you would see that the team can go nowhere with that atrocious defense core

Yeah but if they truly had 2 of the top 20 centers they would at least be sniffing a playoff spot.
