Dougie Hamilton
Gustav Nyquist
These two will play for sure 100%
In our league we don't have a farm system.
I am not re-building I am actually trying to defend my title.
In our draft I picked up:
Morgan Rielly
Dougie Hamilton
Gustav Nyquist
I picked them up partly because a lot of prospects were being grabbed and I needed work on defensemen and partly because I thought the season was going to be lost.
Now that it looks like Hockey is on I am re-evaluating my team and am looking for advice from you fine folks.
Points only league with 0.5 bonus for powere play points. We just adjusted defensemen scoring to give an extra point for goals and extra 0.5 for assists.
Forward: Hall, RNH, Eberle, Benn Couture, Skinner, Seguin, Schenn Stepan, Oshie
Defense: Pietrangelo, Edler, OEL, Fowler
Goal: Fleury, Quick, Schneider, Lehner, Markstrom

Atkinson, Brendan Smith, Eakin...
GO WINGS!
Gustav Nyquist is ready to pitch in. Damien Brunner's 57 points in 33 games playing with Zetterberg in the Swiss A-League, would also indicate that he will be getting some consideration.
Dougie Hamilton has all the tools to become a mega stud in the NHL. I could eventually see him logging huge TOI, and contributing on a very good Boston team. Patience might be needed with him.
Silfverberg
Baertschi
Yakupov
Jaden Schwartz
Tarasenko
These guys should all be regular contributors this season, plus the others mentioned earlier in this thread.

After how the season has gone for Schwartz, I'm not entirely sure that he's a stone cold NHLer this year. Wouldn't surprise me, considering the Blues' depth, if he spends the rest of the year in the AHL to work out the kinks.

As has already been mentioned B. Smith, Granlund, Baertschi, Nyquist, Silfverberg, Yakupov, Galchenyuk and Atkinson are all good bets. I also think Conacher and Barberio are possibilities, as well as Saad.
