New Dynasty league picked... Do I build around McDavid?

[wombat]

Opinions appreciated on what to do with my squad in this 12 team dynasty league??

4pts/goal 3pts/assist .5pt blocked shots, .5pts hits, 1pt ppp, +/-.5pts, .25pts/pm, 2pts majors
36 rounds, keep 20 year to year, no contracts.
Weekly Starters H2H
2 goalies, 6D, 4-6 centers, 6-8 wingers (total of 12 forwards)

Middle - McDavid Draisaitl, Johansen, JT Miller, Horvat, Steel, Jost, Necas, C White
Wingers - Conner, Ehlers, Silfverberg, Schmaltz, Oshie, Perron, Ferland, Sikura
D - Karlsson, Josi, Suter, Montour, C Miller, Fowler, Girard
G - Rinne, Quick, JCampbell, Greiss, Shestyorkin

Does this team compete? Do you see any players you would move to improve it?

The obvious team that wants MCD is super thin up the middle and I could potentially target Wheeler, Kucherov, Sheary, Radulov, Arvidsson, Svechnikov, Tkachuk, Carlson, Chabot... thoughts?

Thanks for trade perspective and other perspectives on my roster.
Cheers,
B

Yes that team can compete. The offer in your title isn't enough for my tastes. Kucherov is a great core of the offer, but wingers are slightly devalued in your league due to the greater position flexibility.

Honestly, if you can't build around McDavid in a dynasty hockey league, you shouldn't be trying to play fantasy hockey. He's simply the #1 asset right now, and there's nobody easier to build around.
