I expect this to be close...

It is 4-2 instead of 5-1 because I accidentally voted for Team A

My vote goes to any team that includes Gump!

Kane, McDavid, Bergeron, and Hedman are the four best players. I think Team A has the edge at the other 16 positions especially in the playoffs.

Well actually they don’t have an advantage at 16 spots to 4 and for those voting team A, aside from my mistake, no idea on why they would be doing so.

None.

Lopsided result.
