This one is a bit tough. I have Miller, Kreider, Zibanejad, and Hayes all in the second tier.

Going with the player who I feel will have the best season, Zibanejad.

 

[Thordic]

I think Zibanejad is a pretty safe pick here - he's likely to finish 10 points ahead of anyone else remaining on the list IMO.

 

[silverfish]

Kreider here. Zib next. Not mad that it's 4:1 Zib:Kreider as I type this. I'd be fine with either of them winning this poll.

 

[Irishguy42]

Kreider here. Zib next. Not mad that it's 4:1 Zib:Kreider as I type this. I'd be fine with either of them winning this poll.

I feel like the next few (including this one) are not landslides like the Top-3. Definitely more debatable.

Zib/Kreider/Hayes/Miller are all close. That all can change depending on how they do next season, but for right now, it's close.

I've got Kreider and Zib close, but above Hayes and Miller who are also close

so like...

Kreider/Zib
Hayes/Miller

 

[Inferno]

Kreider for me.

 

[darko]

Ziba

 

[New York RKY]

Glass

 

[Idlerlee]

Zib

Kreider barely breaks my t6 as it is now

 

[Mac n Gs]

I still think Stepan should've been #2 and Zucc #3, but I'm opting for Kreider here.

 

[Ori]

I Voted Ziba - J.T. Miller close second.

 

[DanielBrassard]

I think Hayes will show how good he is and could break into the top-3.

Hayes doesn't belong in that group.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

I haven't seen Zib play in a Rangers Sweater. Went with Kreider.

 

[Placid]

I cannot vote for a player i have yet to see play as a Ranger (IE Zib). So Kreider it is

 

[member 116805]

Two last posters: does this mean you will give your vote to every player to put on the jersey before you vote for Buch, Vesey, Grabner, Pirri, Jooris etc?

 

[silverfish]

Hayes doesn't belong in that group.

Why?

 

[FLYLine27*]

Hayes doesn't belong in that group.

He absolutely does.

 

[Savant]

Have to go Zibanejad here. Kreider is probably next, then Miller

 

[silverfish]

He absolutely does.

The underrating of Kevin Hayes has been my least favorite part of this off-season.

Though, will put everyone in a good mood if he reaches the production level he saw during his rookie season.

 

[Gardner McKay]

Voted Kreider. Completely missed Zibby. Should have been him.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Zib, Miller, Kreider, Hayes would be my coming order.

Kreider's value is dropping in my eye. Needs to pick up that edge, sick of hearing of freakish athleticism, when he don't do **** with it.

 

[silverfish]

Just as a fair warning, I am going to go absolutely bananas in the forward #6 vote (assuming Kreider takes #5, as he should) when the debate is Miller v. Hayes

Lol. I will say, Hayes probably has the higher ceiling if he can put it all together. With his stick ability, his ceiling at worst is as a 2nd line center.
