    Every single one of these guys is behind absolute studs for years with the exception of Mitchell. Chicago really doesn't have much in his way, but I dont think he has the offensive upside of the other guys. That makes this very hard to rank with much of a degree of certainty. I also dont see any of them being big PIM producers so this really comes down to offense and all will be secondary options for that as I have already mentioned.

    My best guess (after shaking the magic 8 ball):

    Farrance
    Harley
    Mitchell
    Merkeley
    Alexeyev
    10 Team, Points Only, Cash League

    25 Man Roster (no position), top 20 point getters count at end of month
    Keep 20/25 at seasons end, Cut 5 to FA for redrafting
    Goalie points W=2pt L=-1pt SHO=2pt

    Stamkos, Tavares, Eichel, Mercer, JRobertson, RThomas, Kucherov, Nugent-Hopkins, Tuch, KConnor, Necas, Point, Konecny, SJarvis, Cozenz, Morrissey, Bouchard, Josi, Novak, Tolvanen, Peterka, Brink

    G- Vasilevskiy, Sorokin, Oettinger

    Im not investing in Merkley at all. I see another Ryan Murphy when I look at him. Tons of skill and offense but struggles defensively. Add the off-ice issues on top of that and I dont see it. The skill is there, but too many holes. On the other side, I look at kids like Farrance, Harley and Mitchell as steady eddy's who will contribute nicely as they progress. I am not sold on Alexeyev either for some strange reason. Interesting to see a completely differing opinion, and nothing wrong with it either.

    Yea having some problems picking one from the bunch. PIM's is a waste and that cat might change to blocks or hits down the road, but still stuck on who if any of them to take (late pick or auction pick up). Keep those thoughts coming.

    Chicago doesn't have a lot in the way at the NHL level, but he has a lot of competition of a similar age: Boqvist, Regula, Beaudin, etc.

    My list is pretty similar, though I might put Harley above Farrance. Maybe Merkley over Mitchell too.
