2021 NHL Fantasy Draft Discussion

[Panda Bear]

I hereby announce that Sean Walker has been demoted to the bottom pairing with Brett Kulak.

It's just a better balance for play styles. Whoever convinced me otherwise (it was probs me) is a troll.

Yep. Voting went pretty much the way I imagined. Players on their off hands and inexperienced rookies in significant roles get overlooked because of name value.

It'd be interesting to see an EA sim or something similar, but the voting in these has always been kind of silly.

Depends on the player when it comes to handedness and side.

Brodie may be left handed, but he's better on the right. The poster who's putting him on the left gets a penalty from me for that.

Big talent rookies don't always work their way up from the third or fourth lines anymore either.

Yeah. It works perfectly for a message board.

And half the players could care less.

And half the players could care less.

Ok?

 

[Panda Bear]

alright guys

let's name the best athletes in the NHL

the fastest
the biggest
the strongest
the most powerful

and then we'll have a list that has almost no correlation whatsoever to the best players in the game because everyone in the NHL meets the minimum threshold for athleticism and what truly separates players are their skills, intelligence and mentality
