    Default HITS, get your hits!

    Hey everyone,

    Every year it is my M.O. to roster a player who I believe will accumulate the most hits in the NHL.
    I began the year drafting Lawson Crouse, but dropped him for William Carrier (whom I had last year and was great when he was healthy).
    Right now, I am debating between the two VGK bangers, Carrier (5.13 Hits per game last year) and Reaves (3.81 h/gm), as well as speculating on Brandon Tanev (3.48 h/gm). Carrier provides the most offensive upside out of the three, but Reaves has been a hit machine so far this year, albeit a small sample size. Is there another guy I am missing? I am particularly looking at forwards, not defensemen, by the way.

    What are your thoughts on who the most prolific hitter in the NHL is?

    I'd shove Zach Aston-Reese's name in their (5.33 per game) as well.

    How would you rank him against the three I mentioned? Offensive upside not necessarily a huge factor in my decision.

    Considering hits-only. Probably,

    Reaves

    ZAR
    Carrier
    Tanev


    I'd rank Aston-Reese and Carrier both over Reaves were it not for their injury history. Reaves has been consistent and stayed healthy for a few seasons now.

    Sammy Blais is averaging 5 hits a game and is looking pretty good on the 2nd line

    Adam Lowry comes to mind. He can provide 220+ hits, 100+ SOG and chip in 20-30 pts. Even puts up 50+ blocks which is decent for a forward.

    Not sure he's worthy of a roster spot outside of deeper leagues though.

    If Blais can stay healthy he probably offers the best combo of hits and offensive upside
