I finally jumped off the Letang train this season. Luckily it was about 2 weeks before the news broke he had a stroke so i didnt have to deal with that in negotiations.

Letang for me. To be honest, he's the only Band-Aid Boy I've stuck it out with. Everyone else I ship off at the first indication

My boy Ales. So much talent and so much of it in pieces on the ice.
Letang simply because of his potential upside - a 70 point defenseman.

Spezza for me. So much talent. So underappreciated because of his injury history.
Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.
12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.
League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.
Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.
We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.
Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid
Hemsky for me, so much talent, so little results
Letang, but only by a hair over Lupul. He teases with his point production, then is out for an extended period of time. Each injury is new and unrelated to his last IR visit.
Bottleneckers (12/16 in 2022)
16 team, points only. G: 2-W, 4-SO.
Top 9F, 4D & 1G . Keep 15, Max 23
