How I rank them changes as the season goes on, never had Stutzle top 5 until October, Raymond and Holts have both fallen since September, Sanderson wasn’t in my top 10 range until Bio-Steel.Makes sense. Did your top-10 always look like that or did you update recently? Mine is mixed - for example I did swap positions for Drysdale and Rossi based not only on more viewings and draft list noise - but I might have subconsciously accounted for Sens' need in case they have the 5th overall and Rossi is available. Drysdale question marks and positioning as the de facto number 1 defenceman available (although he is in my rankings) may also have played a part.
I am curious if something like that hasn't happened with Sanderson's recent rise. I found it a bit sudden and the outcome feels like a domino effect.
Sanderson was a mid first guy to me, then I caught him at The Bio-steel game, where he was far and away the best player, and looked like a star.
Then decided to follow him as best I could from there, as he caught my eye, where he continued to be the best player pretty much game in, game out.
He started the year with 15 points in his first 34 games, which pretty much coincided with his 15ish rank.
Starting at the Bio-Steel game in late January, where his stock began to rise, until his last game in the 2nd week of March, he put up 14 points in 13 games. Thomas Borderleau, who led the team in scoring, had 15 points in the same time frame, and was the only player to our score him in that frame.
Sanderson is a riser, because he was rising all of 2020.
If he’s taken in the top 3, it’s a wasted pick imo, at 4-5 it gets dicey, then at 6 I think is where it would be a fine pick. Even taking him higher could work out, but I feel that the other players outweigh the benefit of reaching for him in the top 4-5.
