Looking for some help on my annual rating project. Shouldn't take more than 15 mins if you watched most of the Kings games last season. So the three areas that I'm seeking input are:
  • Player Role: This is really what type of player they are, and specifically where they would slot into the average NHL team, not necessarily Los Angeles. So they could be Elite/All-Star, 1st liner, 2nd liner, 3rd liner, 4th liner/Scratch, Minor leaguer, High-end prospect, Low-end prospect. (don't rate 1-5 here, just list what role they are)
  • Skating: Straight ahead speed should be the primary consideration. Rate on the provided scale where 1 is the lowest, 5 is the highest and 3 is average.
  • Defense: Overall defensive skill but primarily gap control and using their stick and body to neutralize an attacker. Rate on the provided 1-5 scale.
The Scale:
5 - Well above average
4 - Above average
3 - Average
2 - Below Average
1 - Well below average
(In reality some player could be a 0 or 6, for example McDavid would rate as a 6 in skating, this would be an extremely rare case and most teams won't have a 0 or 6 in any area)

I need only 2-3 submissions, and the help is extremely appreciated!

For reference, here are the players that I'm looking for:
Anze Kopitar
Jeff Carter
Michael Amadio
Trevor Lewis
Gabriel Vilardi
Adrian Kempe
Jaret Anderson-Dolan
Trevor Moore
Blake Lizotte
Tim Schaller
Nikolai Prokhorkin
Alex Iafallo
Austin Wagner
Dustin Brown
Martin Frk
Carl Grundstrom
Matt Luff
Kurtis MacDermid
Ben Hutton
Tobias Bjornfot
Drew Doughty
Matt Roy
Paul LaDue
Mikey Anderson
Sean Walker
Joakim Ryan
Kale Clague

Good grief!!! You, sir, have a tremendous surplus of focus on your hands!!! Might I recommend the Stock Market? That's something that pays HUGE for numerical analysis. Hockey ratings, OTOH, not so much.....

Here you go. This is my opinion of how our guys were from 2019-2020. We are loaded with bottom 6 players. Couple of rookies were not good enough to be high end prospects, too good for low end, so I made a medium end. That might be because our team is STACKED with prospects. All the medium end prospects I could consider high end on other teams. As you can tell, we only have 2 elite players, 2 players worth considering top 6 forwards, and 1 top 4 defenseman. Last season was something else.

Anze Kopitar
-Player Role: Elite
-Skating: 4
-Defense: 6 (arguably defensive forward in the league)

Jeff Carter
-Player Role: 3rd liner
-Skating: 3 (Hard to say because he has been injured and has been declining, Im split between 2 and 3 here)
-Defense: 2

Michael Amadio
-Player Role: 4th liner
-Skating: 2
-Defense: 2

Trevor Lewis
-Player Role: 3rd liner
-Skating: 2
-Defense: 3

Gabriel Vilardi
-Player Role: High End Prospect
-Skating: 3
-Defense: 3 (Debated between 3-4. Probably 3 last season, expect 4 next season)

Adrian Kempe
-Player Role: 3rd liner
-Skating: 4
-Defense: 2

Jaret Anderson-Dolan
-Player Role: Medium Prospect
-Skating: 2
-Defense: 3

Trevor Moore
-Player Role: 4th Liner/Scratched
-Skating: 2
-Defense: 1

Blake Lizotte
-Player Role: 3rd liner
-Skating: 4
-Defense: 2

Tim Schaller
-Player Role: Minor Leaguer
-Skating: 2
-Defense: 2

Nikolai Prokhorkin
-Player Role: KHL player (3rd liner)
-Skating: 3
-Defense: 2

Alex Iafallo
-Player Role: 2nd liner

-Defense: 2

-Player Role: 3rd liner
-Skating: 5
