Maybe not predictions, not counting prospects or guys like Dzingel, here's where I'd have the Senators full time guys after last season.
MacArthur 83-Turris 87-Stone 89
Hoffman 86-Zibanejad 85-Ryan 86
Smith 85-Pageau 83-Lazar 81
Chiasson 80-Neil 81
Methot 85-Karlsson 94
Phaneuf 86-Ceci 84
Borowiecki 79-Wideman 80
Wiercioch 80
Here's my logic with some of these changes.
-MacArthur was out all last season with a concussion. A guy who missed an entire season with an injury that has potential to permanently effect his play should take a dock in overall until proven otherwise.
-Turris was having a career year until having to play injured. He is a very consistent scorer so he should stick around the 87/88 range he has been in past games.
-Stone deserves a huge boost. He is the Senators best forward. Champion of take aways. 60+ point scorer. 89 might be a stretch, I'm actually not sure what his overall would work out to because certain attributes seem to effect overalls higher. I'd make him either a two way forward or a play maker. EA has had him as a power forward for a while, which seems off, since he rarely hits. He should have below average skating/hitting, but his poke check should rival the best players in the game. He has high hockey IQ, so his o and d awareness should be high. He's also a pretty good passer, and has scored a pace of 25+ goals in his last two seasons so in the EA world there is justification for giving him at least an above average or good shot.
-Ryan gets docked down. He is still a good player, but as far as EA games go, he has been riding the coat tails of his previous success.
-Hoffman's OA will seem low, but his actual offensive attributes would be higher than a typical 86oa. Physical/D awareness will drag his overall down a few points.
-Smith had a career year. He has been stuck at 83 in EA games for years, and just had a 25 goal season. Give him a slight offensive raise. Maybe change him over from a grinder to a two way forward since grinders rarely score in GM mode.
-Pageau at 83 seems fair for a good middle 6 match up centre who scored nearly 40 points this season. I think EA has him as a PLY, but I'd probably make him a TWF. I'd switch Lazar to a GRN just based on his usage the past two years.
-Defense is roughly the same as what I see right now in Legacy. Not sure if I'm on the most up to date roster. Karlsson should be the best D in the game. Wiercioch down to 80.
