[Iron Mike Sharpe]

Lecavalier-Lemieux-Sundin
Nash-Lindros-Getzlaf
E. Staal-Thornton-Arnott
P. Mahovlich-Linden-Holik
Andreychuk

Forwards
Pete Mahovlich 6'5 - Mario Lemieux 6'4 - Mats Sundin 6'5
Dave Andreychuk 6'4 - Eric Lindros 6'4 - Ryan Getzlaf 6'4
Bobby Smith 6'4 - Joe Thornton 6'4 - Vincent Lecavalier 6'4
Rick Nash 6'4 - Jason Arnott 6'5 - Patrik Laine 6'5
Blake Wheeler 6'5 / Mikko Rantanen 6'4

Okay, on these fantasy "best team" threads it always perplexes me why people ALWAYS list forwards out of position, & basically front load their teams with centers, as if they can't find legit wingers to fill out the teams. Why? What is the point?

Well it's pretty obvious, you always end up with several centers who are better than the winger options. It's hard to park Lecavalier, Getzlaf, Smith on the bench and instead have to use lesser players. It also results in a guy like Joe Thornton on the 4th line.

Also its not like this is unheard of in real life, how would Team Canada look if they could only use 4/5 legitimate centers only?

Everyone is eager to repeat Canada's mistake in the 1998 Olympics.
