interesting. no Tavares!

at first glance, dunno that I have huge problems with many names there. except dunno why Sam Bennett is there.

and not sure about Konecny or Cirelli now that I think about it. actually, why are either on the team?

on D, dunno that Theodore is all that great either. and Parayko... woof.

management is trying to outsmart itself here, it would appear
 
Outright bad picks: Bennett, Parayko

Very Questionable: Marchand, Toews


Seemingly questinable but probably good: Cirelli
 
I’m glad no Tavares. Let him rest and not get injured. That’s the last place I want him, even though I’d love to see him play in it.

I get Toews cause he plays with Makar. Likely why they did Theodor and Pietro, too.

didn't realize Marchy had dropped off enough to not deserve it.

agreed re Bennett and Parayko. I get Cirelli as a 4th liner/PK guy but still... he's a leaderbeans pick for sure and I don't love it
 
fully admit i haven't been paying all that much attention to rosters and stuff, but seems like USA's roster has the potential to be a lot better?

any speculation on theirs yet?
 
I mean if you have Stone and maybe Jarvis on your 4th line....it's pretty pretty good.

Makar and Morrissey are pretty beastly on the backend too.

The big question for me is whether Theo-Pietro is actually a good pairing anymore. They were elite just a couple years ago tho.

US gets super hyped but not sure they're any better. They can't match McD-MacK-Makar imo and i think we'll see similar 2nd liner types at the bottom of their roster as we see here on ours.

They do have the goalie edge but goalies are assholes so i hear.

I think Pietro can likely hack it but I have concerns about Theo. And with Makar and Morrissey we don't need Theo for the PP, which is I imagine where he derives a lot of his value.

Stone I'm okay with, if he's healthy.
