From Sean Leahy's Twitter:
Roster is probably going to be 2G, 6F, 3D
At this point, I think 6 spots are locked:
F: Eichel (Buffalo)
F: Krecji (Boston)
F: Pacioretty (Montreal)
G: Price/Condon (Price if he's healthy, Condon if not) (Montreal)
D: Karlsson(Ottawa)
D: Subban(Montreal)
I also think that one of Pacioretty/Price/Subban will win the fan vote.
So, with the remaining 5 picks, we need 1 player from Detroit, Toronto, Tampa Bay, and Florida. We also need 3 more Forwards, 1 more defenseman, and 1 more goalie.
I think Reimer, at 6-2-3 with a 2.19GAA crosses off the other goalie and Toronto's pick. Mrazek kinda gets screwed here because Toronto really has no one else to send.
I think Jagr gets the Florida spot, just because of the attention it would bring, and also because he's leading them in points.
I think Florida's pick goes to Stamkos
I think Zetterberg goes for Detroit.
We're at:
F: Eichel (BUF)
F: Krecji (BOS)
F: Pacioretty (MON)
F: Jagr (FLA)
F: Stamkos(TB)
F: Zetterberg (DET)
D: Subban(MON)
D: Karlsson(OTT)
D: Markov(MON)
G: Price/Condon (MON)
G: Reimer (TOR)
Markov has the most points of any D not considered privately, so he's in too.
Given that Montreal is 9 points up on 2nd 19 games into the season, they should get 4 selections.
How would you construct the team? Who would you pick?
There are 11 spots on the Atlantic roster, and 1 spot is guaranteed to go to each team in the Atlantic.Top 4 vote-getters from each division will be AS Tournament capts. Remaining 40 picked by Hockey Ops. All 30 teams will be repped, per NHL.
