    1) Huberdeau
    2) Hertl
    3) Palat
    4) Draisatl
    5) Kapanen
    6) Bjugstad
    7) Nurse

    After these seven I'm meh on them, I don't know the league scoring so I went with more of a points aspect.

    Bonino - safe, but not sexy. 2L C and not an elite one at that -- even PP will be limited.
    Draisatl - stud prospect. That team has to EVENTUALLY do something, and he'll benefit when they do
    Petan - boom or bust. Junior numbers are ridiculous, but he's tiny. A few years before we'll know
    Hertl - great own. Up there in this list.
    Gormely - has taken awhile, but should still be solid
    Kapanen - the prospect of playing with Sid and Geno is tantalizing, but we've seen a lot of forwards disappoint in that situation -- still a solid own
    Faksa - meh. better hockey player than fantasy hockey player long term
    Huberdeau - don't let last season discourage too much. The points will return methinks
    Nurse - could take awhile, but will be a horse.
    Palat - might never be a league leader, but he's producing now and did it without Stamkos for stretches.
    Jarnkrok - meh. Trade could help, but Detroit's moving him for Legwand makes me skeptical
    Bjugstad - like him a lot; could be a bit slower in development

    Those are my quick thoughts. For what it's worth...
    Points-only, Full Keeper Dynasty League
    Active roster (no starts, just total points): 12 FW, 6 D, 1 Goalie

    Forwards: Kucherov, Barkov, Teravainen, Seguin, Hoffman, Lindholm, Gusev, Horvat, Meier, Perron, Schwartz, Johansen, Pavelski, Buchnevich, Hischier, Granlund, Bracco

    Defense: Josi, Dahlin, Letang, Gostisbehere, Ekman-Larsson, Petry, Slavin, Keith, Matheson

    Goal: Lehner, Holtby, Varlamov

    Farm: Soderstrom, York, Woo, Tracey, Dorofeyev

    This depends like usual on when you want to win. If there is no timeframe i assume you got all the time in the world.


    Tier 1:
    Draisaitl ( best player ainc)


    Tier 2:
    Hertl ( without the injury issues he would be in Tier 1 for me)
    Bjugstad ( donīt get you fooled with slow development, the Bjuggernaut is real)


    Tier 3:
    Huberdeau ( well the board knows that i am sceptic with Huby. I take Bjugstad over him any day of the week and twice on Sunday. He is a scary pick, the coaching change might help, iīd still stay away)
    Nurse ( depending how high Dīs are valued in your league he might be the next best after Draisaitl)
    Jarnkrok ( great circumstances, solid offensivly, new offensive minded coach!)
    Palat ( Solid, rock solid)
    Kapanen ( high upside, great team to be on, draft reports were somewhat scary since he seems to be lazy)

    Tier 4:
    Petan ( huuuge upside, but risky. Boom or bust)
    Bonino ( jumps up the list if you need production now, otherwise limited upside)
    Faksa ( not a great fantasy option, but he will be an NHLer)
    Gormely ( not as high on him anymore, he will make it, but he will not be a fantasy juggernaut)

    Interesting to see the nuances between how different guys value them
    Probably more important to note the overlap between replies though
