I must have been undervaluing Pietrangelo, didn't have him that high on my lists but like another poster said my defence rankings had some holes. this is pretty fun though, thanks everyone for participating, we're getting 30 or so votes a day which is very good. The polls on the first day didn't open until late in the day so if I did it in the morning we would have had 30 or so voters as well.
Am thinking this list looks awesome so far!
Sorry guys on the poll question I wrote on there Pick 1 but we Pick 5. Please disregard the pick 1 part. I noticed some people didn't pick 5
If anyone only voted 1 and wish to vote for 5 then write in the comments who you wish to vote for and I'll add it in the final tally
Not sure if a moderator could change that for me (change poll title to "pick 5"), if they could that would be great. Thank you
Would be cool if we could have a Dobber Forum G30 (Group of 30) Summit where we can get together in a chat room and have an active poll and work on forwards and use a similar process and hash together an Ultimate list.
So crazy that Yandle slipped this far. If the Florida offense is anything but anemic he will sleepwalk to 50 points. I think this is the right spot for Doughty and Ghost too. After that it got harder. I went with Gardiner (situation) and Jones (talent). I don't trust Werenski to do anything close to what he did last season.

Interesting John Carlson and Shayne Gostisbehere had more votes than Weresnski last round but Werenski is leading the way this time around.
Looks like Yandle and Doughty will be battling it out for the 20th position!
sure hope the tie is broken by the deadline ... what would we do then?
Great idea Stunt! Looking forward to seeing the final poll results
