Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Forwards 10/10

I am sorry for the pp I made. I feel bad for whoever has to face that. Ovi and Pastrnak are probably the best 2 players in the world right now on the one timer. Oh, and did I forget to mention Draisaitl who is 3rd who is at the right side. And why not throw in Kucherov there for good measure. On the normal 5v5 lines I went balanced. Yes I get it it isn't as sexy. But Zacha has chemistry with Pasta. And the whole Wild line might not be as antizing but it has chemistry. I think you gotta try to even it out a little bit. Malin and Ovi will be fun as a veteran 4th line. Also don't worry about Panarin, Draisaitl and Kucherov being on the 1st line. What's the worst that could happen?

Defense 7/10

Seider and Josi are worldclass. They will have to play up to 30 minutes some nights tho. It isn't as strong behind them. Siegenthaler is very good in his own end but that is it. Hronek is great offensively as we've seen. But in his own end he won't do you any favours except if your the opposite team. Provorov and Sergachev are great at scoring but can't defend that well. If Josi or Seider gets hurt. Even the 1st forward line can't save them-

Goalies 11/10

I don't know what to say even. The 3 best keepers in the world on the same team. And they are all russian aswell. Good lord! Team Europe are stacked here! But they will face alot of shots so unless they are at their A game it won't turn out well for them. Even if 2 of them play poorly only 1 of them needs to be hot and he will be able to carry all the load as all these keepers are familiar with.

Overall 8/10

D is lacking in depth. But otherwise the offense and the goalies are simply amazing! That fun hockey this could be! Just imagine that pp lining up in a 5v3. Guarranteed to score! As long as Josi and Seider can carry a heavy work load they could definitely win.
