Team 3 for me.
No real good reason for this post besides fun and boredom, but here are the probable keepers for all the teams in my 6 keeper league next year. The numbers after the names are Dobber's May rankings. The slashed names at the end of some lists are when I'm not sure who they'll choose. The bolded names are defence.
Which teams do you think have the best keepers? Despite the inherent silliness of this post, I will definitely REP responses. Thanks to all those willing to play along!
(Current list order is the order the teams finished this year.)

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
I would have to agree. He went really young in our first ever draft, and it was the Matthews/Laine draft year. Plus he got lucky enough to draft first overall, and of course took McDavid. I've made some good offers to get him, but he likely won't budge, haha.
What are the next few top teams for you from this list?

I am not going to rank them all but team 1 is the next one on my list. From there, MAYBE team 5 or 12. I flip flop between those two for 3rd.

I like 3 the most, but the top 3 finishers all are nice.
Want a Signature? Go to Settings, and you'll find Edit Signature down the list on the left.
Team 3 for sure. I mean, McDavid, Matthews, Laine - my goodness.
Next up, Team 1. Kucherov is my bet for top candidate to challenge McDavid for an Art Ross, and Karlsson is a monster. Eichel huge ceiling, Klingberg, etc.
For me, team 3, then 1, then 2
