Montour, Butcher, Chabot, Pulock, Girard

They are all available in the next draft of my simulated league. How do you rank them based on pts and potential?

Montour
Chabot (Lower floor though, but upside puts him here)
Butcher
Pulock
Girard

I love Girard, and this he's going to be a good player in the NHL for many years. However, I don't think he has the same 45+ point upside that some of these others do. Maybe 40 points in his prime years, while the others have a little bit more upside, and less competition for a prime spot on PP1 (assuming Montour can get the easy assignment in Ana, and Karlsson gets traded clearing a path for Chabot).

My issue with Girard is that the Avs' top offensive dman right now is Barrie, and long term, that spot is gonna go to Cale Makar, so Girard's never really gonna get the opportunities to be a 45+ point dman, at least on that team.
I agree with EE's list, and think that Montour is way ahead of the others on this list. I expect a huge breakout coming this year. Huge.

Thanks a lot for your answers
