Price D. Tokarski Goalie spot news: M. Brodeur is talking with Habs and is interestet to play in Montreal, if he make contract he is then number two goalie and i think they give more rest to Price, so Price can be very hot in playoffs. Biggest plus + Habs have two very good and equal line, they have samekind situation than Wild, Habs have two first line. They can trade one center if needed, because Galchenyuk can play in center, they first defencive pair is in top 5 in NHL and maybe in top 3. They have very good and solid number one goalie who also belong in top 3 goalies in last season. I hope to see Saku Koivu in third or second line center role, because it will great end of his career and Desharnais or Plekenec can play winger role also. (Plekanec played in winger spot in Czech olympic and world championship rosters) Biggest minus - Habs have only one very good defender pair, Emelin is good defender but then quality drop a lot and fast, Gilbert is more like third pair defender and Weaver not fit best teams in NHL and Beaulieu is still young player but he has a lot potential. So weak link of team is defencive group. Offencive Rating 8 Defencive Rating 7,5 Goalie Rating 9,5 Total points 25 Three Best players C. Price P.K. Subban M. Pacioretty My favorite players I not have favorite players in current habs roster, but interesting player to follow is A. Galchenyuk who is very potential player and cab be player who make point per game this season and can take one of center spots.

Cullen - D. Roy - M. Salomäki E. Nyström - C. Wilson - P. Gaustad Defence S. Weber - R. Josi A. Volchenko - S. Jones V. Bartley - R. Ellis Goalies P. Rinne C. Hutton Biggest plus + NHL most deepest Center squad, They have good first line, and solid second line and third line is offencive line also, fourth is defencive line, they have good defencive group, including a lot good and promising young defenders, Nashville defencive group is maybe most promising and can be best group in NHL someday. Nashville have very good number one goalie, biggest plus i think is how interesting team is now, they take my favorite coatch (Laviolette) and they change gamestyle to offencive way and they have tools to do that. Biggest minus - I cant find one big minus what you can see rightway. But when you looking more you can see that they wingers squad its they weak point, reason is that most of Nashville wingers are centers (mean that they best spot in roster is center) that will affect at least start of season and can affect a lot in long run too. Offencive Rating 7,5 Defencive Rating 8 Goalie Rating 9 Total points 24,5 Three Best players P. Rinne S. Weber J. Neal My favorite players I not have big favorites in Nashville current roster, but im always liked Pekka Rinne a lot, i like Roman Josi also and i see that he is very skillfull.

von Rantala Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 New Jersey Devils Members:- Fantasy Lines M. Cammalleri - T. Zajac - T. Ruutu P. Elias - A. Henrique - J. Jagr R. Clowe - D. Zubrus - M. Ryder D. Brunner - S. Gomez (try-out) - M Havlat Defence M. Zidlicky - A. Greene T. Kaberle (try-out) - J. Merrill B. Salvador - D. Severson Goalies C. Schneider K. Kinkaid Biggest plus + Very deep and good wingers, they have one of most deepest winger squad in NHL (What raise off. rating). Jagr is in second line because his age, more suitable role is in second line when he and team can handle his minutes, but he is still New Jersey best forward. Fourth line is full of players who want bounce back season, Havlat has deal many injuries in his career and now they start affect his game but he can still be point per game forward, Brunner can be 40-50 point player and Gomez can get bounce back season too. So fourt line is plus too. Biggest minus - Biggest minus is Defencive group, they not have any star defenders in group, they have only one offencive defender (Zidlicky), and for that reason Kaberle can take spot in team. Second big minus is Center squad, in that spot they not have any star player and its not deep enough in my view and thats why Gomez can take spot in training camp. Little bit weak center squad lower my off. rating Offencive Rating 7,5 Defencive Rating 5,5 Goalie Rating 8,5 Total points 21,5 Three Best players J. Jagr C.Schneider P. Elias My favorite players T. Ruutu one of my favorite players, great two way power forward who know how to make goals, is big leader also M.

Pepsi Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Saku koivu was a great player and very talented he lead the canadiens very well, I think this season will be an interesting one especially for Toronto making over 10 trade acquisitions and riding players that weren't in it for the team or got hurt too often, I'll be curious as to how the goaltending matches up this year seeing as bernier really took charge and control compared to reimer but if reimer can step up his game again this year Toronto will have a very good 1/2 goalie punch and line up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson Biggest plus + They have couple young and very potential player in roster, like Strome, Lee, Pulock, Pokka and Dal Colle those all can take roster spot in this season already. Goalie spot is team biggest plus. Biggest minus - Maybe weakest defender group at the moment, yes they have plenty promising young defenders in group or in coming group, but at the momement defencive group is minus side. Second minus is that they need star player in first line, and in team, now Tavares is too lonely in that part. After Tavares, Nielsen and Okposo skill drop and a lot and thats affect overal rating.

They have couple good young player coming in the roster. They have very good coatch behind bench. But biggest plus is Henrik Lundqvist. Biggest minus - Biggest minus in my eyes is center squad, they not have any star centers, Stepan is good but never made point per game before in whole season, he can be irregular sometimes, so i think they need at least one star center in roster.

Lehner Biggest plus + Erik Karlsson is in my view biggest plus, very talent and good offencive defender and very fast in skates. Young and promising defencive group is plus also. I think Karlsson is best defender in NHL at the moment. Biggest minus - Very light offencive group. In current roster you cant find forwad who made 80 in one season in his career, and no one (forwards) make point per game in last season. Spezza was underrated player whole his Ottawa career and Ottawa will come miss him a lot in this season. Erik Karlsson leaved too alone in this team. Offencive Rating 5,5 Defencive Rating 7 Goalie Rating 7 Total points 19,5 Three Best players E. Karlsson B. Ryan C. Anderson My favorite players I not have any favorite players in Ottawa roster, but Karlsson is interesting to follow, he is fast and master in the offencive way, lately i start liked his style a lot, but he is not my favorites yet.

von Rantala Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) Philadelphia Flyers Members: Meow and Rattlem Fantasy Lines M. Read - C. Giroux - J. Voracek B. Schenn - S. Couturier - W. Simmonds M. Raffl - V. Lecavalier - R.J. Umberger P.E. Bellemare - Z. Rinaldo - J. Akeson Defence B. Coburn - K. Timonen A. MacDonald - M. Streit L. Schenn - N. Schultz Yes i know that Kime (Timonen) is not available when season start, and maybe he must retire because those bad blood clots, but he is Warrior and you cant never say that he is out of line ups only because injury. He came so many time back roster after awful and bad injuries in past, that he can beat this too. Goalies S. Mason R. Emery Biggest plus + Very deep defencive group is big plus, they have good offencive defenders M. Streit and M. Del Zotto, great two way defender K. Timonen and good defencive defenders B. Coburn, A. MacDonald, L. Schenn, N. Schultz and N. Grossman. They have 8 defender who can be in top 2 pair in most NHL teams. Plus Flyers have very deep and good Center squad, very good center spot raise my number, they have two center what is moved to winger, and two very good rightwinger Biggest minus - Biggest minus it is ofcourse that they trade S. Hartnell. They will come miss him a lot in upcoming season, minus is too that they not have any star winger in roster, Voracek and Simmonds is close to star status, but Philly need atleast one to two leftwinger in squad. So biggest minus in real is leftwinger squad. I think goalie spot is not good enought neither, in my eyes Mason need play one good season more, last season was good but he need at least one more to be top 10 in NHL goalies. Emery is very irregular. Offencive Rating 8 Defencive Rating 9 Goalie Rating 7 Total points 24 Three Best players C. Giroux K. Timonen J. Voracek My favorite players K. Timonen is my big idol, great defender, great two way skill, big big leader, calm, friendly, warrior, big example, and big benefactor. S. Couturier i love his gamestyle. Usually its take two to three season that players get to my favorite players, but he get to my favorite players in one season. Coming closer to my idol list also. V. Lecavalier is my favorite players too, good player, still very good and can be star center in NHL. Leader and big benefactor.
