Funny how Andy is the conclusive #2 goalie after 4 solid playoff games. Goalie impressions really change fast.

Considering Kessel is #2 in scoring in the past 5 seasons, and not to someone on a Canadian team, I don't see why he goes anywhere but #1

Because he's terrible at everything outside of scoring goals. Doesn't backcheck, coughs up the puck if you're physical with him, doesn't win board battles, terrible possession player, terrible leader, just overall a poor competitor. Kessel can score, but even back when he used to be on great defensive teams in Boston, there was a reason they gave up on him.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Ottawa really lacks high end forwards compared to all the other teams

Stone and Hoffman should change that. Especially if Ryan gets his game back.

Stone is already a top 10 forward on that list and if Hoffman continues to improve he is too. Turris could be on that list too.

Meh, we might not be up there now but it's more a work in progress with development and we have more depth than the other teams.

kessel behind hoffman seems weird. I guess thats trying to go off this season and potential?

I wonder where McDavid would fit in

Id move Kessel a good amount higher

Mcdavid would be #1 or 2 as soon as next season

Well considering in the trade forum half of Ottawa fans all of a sudden say without Anderson they wouldn't be a playoff team.. I was a bit confused. Considering Anderson was hurt a lot and Hammond was the big factor in net.

Thank you. I can't believe people think Kessel would be #1.
