Fantasy Draft Expansion Game

[Jesus Take the Wheel]

Sorry ive been crazy busy with work, ill get to posting my protected list now

 

[Joey Moss]

Meh I did a Seattle mock on my own and its not that good. I think 8 wouldve been better.

Some scrub teams have no lists but I guess they wont add much value.

I also did one and it is a good team. Their 4th line will be the equivalent of the average 2nd line. Can take a couple 1b goalies. No star players, but the depth will get them votes.

Just waiting on Nashville to make two picks and the draft is done.

Even after losing Johnson in the expansion draft, Arizona is the class of the central.

Forwards: A lot of firepower up front in the top 6 as well as a speedy bottom 6 to match today's nhl. Also very pleased with the C depth.

Defense: The best defense in the league. All of these defensemen are in the top 4 on their real life teams. I like the mix of a younger dman with a veteran dman.

Goaltending: 2 goalies who were starters for most of the season. If one faulters the other will pick up the slack.

Overall I really like this team as every player is more than capable in their current position on the roster and no spots have been gifted to prospects (Cough Real life Oilers)​

- Tons of fire power up front both at center and the wing
- 3 lines that should score consistently and a strong shut-down line
- Solid defense and goaltending​

[Paralyzer008]

Brandon Saad - Sean Couturier - Bryan Rust

Carl Hagelin - Philip Danault - David Backes
Kyle Clifford - Alex Barre-Boulet - Jason Robertson

Brian Dumoulin - Kris Letang
Mattias Ekholm - Erik Gustafsson
MacKenzie Weegar - Henri Jokiharju

Darcy Kuemper
Thomas Greiss

- Definitely some of the best two-way C depth in the league with good size. Our top 3Cs have all played hard minutes in their careers.
- Lots of experienced guys who have played in a cup final or won the cup before - in fact, there are 8 cup winners on this roster.
- Solid goalie tandem of two guys with .920+ save percentages this year, Kuemper coming off an amazing prove-it season in Arizona
- Best top 4 D in the league with three guys with over 40+ points (2 of them over 50+) and one of the best defensive D in Dumoulin.
- Our penalty kill with Danault, Couturier, Hagelin, Ekholm and Dumoulin, among others, should be top 5 in the league.

We are very happy with this roster.
