Yeah...but is he a leader? Can he, single handedly, without scoring many points, will his team to victory? I think not.

I think Kopitar has lamp-posts for wingers.

Yeah but if you ask around you'll quickly hear that he, without a dought, has the best goalie and defenseman in the game on his team.

He probably buys Slovenian lamps instead of Canadian ones! What kind of leader is that?

That's probably the reason MacLean decided not to draft Kopi and went with Brule instead.

John Muckler says: Have you met Brian Lee? Oh... and why don't you take a frekin' walk Zdeno. I've got Wade Redden on the other line!!

Fucking Muckler. Or Fuckler as I like to call him.

That's a whole lot of hono(u)rable mentions.

Not so hono(u)rable when you see Brandon Sutter on those mentionables.

Hey. He's probably a top 5 third line centre in the game!

I've seen charts and stuff. He deserves it.

Okay, the final installment of Yahoo's "we can read NHL stats" - the goalies.

And Now For Something Completely Serious: Ranking The Top 25 NHL Goalies In 2015-16 - Yahoo Sports Canada

19. Ryan Miller, Vancouver: Keep an eye on Miller, he might jump up 10 spots – or fall off the list entirely.

Anyone got a wager on which one is gonna happen?

I give them credit for including some really good technical goalies in the top 11. Schneider, Holtby, Bish, Rinne. All good goalies for kids to look up to.

Not sure about the #1 pick. I hear he can't handle pressure.

I thought Ramo was a better goalie than Hiller last season, yet Hiller makes the top 25 and Ramo doesn't even get a HM. Oh well.

Edit: Ben Scrivens even got a HM

[jstewismybastardson]

fuck tulo ... check out this stud at short

 

[jstewismybastardson]

[jstewismybastardson]

positioning on the rundown left alot to be desired too

 

[Comeds]

Whoa, it looks like the center fielder is playing really deep - almost to where second base would be.

Quick and Rask are rated too high. I'd say Bobby Lu, too, especially if you're putting MAF 14th.

I have no clue who hit the shit out of that ball but Im sure he's glad he wasnt identified in that tweet

Rask is solid, but he does (did?) benefit a bit from who he plays (played?) behind.

Quick is... Let's just say I respect him as much as I respected Belfour. And no, that's not a compliment.
