I was surprised to see Dahlin there, I wasn't aware grit was a big part of his game.
The original ACGM that I copied this theme from wasn't all gritty guys, as it was also a good team.
That said, Dahlin has some grit. I wouldn't say it's a major part of his game, but he did rack up 105 hits this season and got in the way of 132 shots. This is a fun video from last year to show he's not always going to back down:

For the bottom pair, it was really Schenn vs Gudas. And while Schenn lays the body just a hair more, he also takes more PIMs and blocks less shots, so I erred on the side of caution with Gudas.
Sandin was put there for some offense (along with his willingness to make hits and block shots). His G/60 and pts/60 rates are 50% higher than Schenn's,
Love tkachuk brothers together - would def try and find a better goalie though..... although binny is def grit
haha I went for grit on the back end. Binner isn't great, and Askarov doesn't have much experience, but Binner is certainly gritty and Askarov has been in a fight.
