OT: Put together the best team you can with all Northwest division players

[ValidVick*]

Just something that I found interesting... Put together the best team you can choosing from every player in the NW Division in their natural positions for fun... I'll start

Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - Eberle

Parise - Kesler - Parenteau

Hall - Duchene - Landeskog

Pominville - Koivu - Burrows

Ryan Suter - Erik Johnson

Dan Hamhuis - Justin Schultz

Alex Edler - Dennis Wideman

Schneider

Luongo

Just for fun.

don't see koivu on there, even if he has to be moved to wing

other than that I like it

I might rearrange it though

Sedin Sedin Parise
Landeskog Koivu Kesler
Hall Duchene Eberle
Pominville Nuge Parenteau

defense and goaltending seem fine

 

[thepuckmonster]

EJ ain't all that.

I put them all in their natural positions but they can obviously move around a bit. And I agree with Koivu. I'd replace the Nuge with him.

I understand to some extent, I feel that Parise could do really well with the Sedins, and I don't thing him playing off wing will be a big deal. Kesler has move to wing in the past, don't know about Koivu, but I love a second line full of really strong two-way guys. Kept Hall and Eberle together with Duchene between them as Nuge hasn't preformed enough this year (although is picking it up). Fourth line is soft, but I can justify snubbing any of those guys

 

[Pip]

Man is this division ever weak on defense

Look at the NorthEast, they have
Karlsson
Subban
Chara
Markov
Phaneuf
Etc

It'd end up being mostly the same guys if we were to simply assemble the best team possible. For fun, I created the best team (imo) that's cap compliant:

Tried to keep most guys in their natural positions but moved Kesler to the wing and Landeskog to the right side.

Nah he'd pick the pluggiest guys over the skilled ones.

 

[Wheatley]

Please let's not turn the Canucks board into the mess that is the Main boards. This needs to be a refuge from all those stupid threads.

Agreed.

You are correct (sort of) if AV was selecting the team it would be a list of two way players on shuffle
