Good luck @ResilientBeast! This should be a good series, and I had a feeling I’d be seeing you here. I’ll try to post some thoughts over the weekend.

Off the top I would give advantage to Cornwall in Net. While we have a tremendous duo in the playoffs I would trust Crozier more than either of my guys in general.

Looking at top line scoring, I like Larouche but he's strictly an offense only player and I think Ftorek is a ahead offensively and certainly intangibly.

I like Stillman and he probably belongs on a first line, but I'm more concerned about Warwick. Does his resume suit his roll as a top line forward in an ATD?

Rochefort - Niinamaa vs Godfrey - Lumme

I think I prefer Rochefort out of this group, but I'm surprised to see the on off splits for Godfrey.
