Very solid.
My 5th source - and these slide in very well with what I've mapped from Dobber, Yahoo, Fantrax, TSN.
I like that you do have 5-10 skaters that you bumped outside the normal range.
Predictions without some bullish/bearish guys are just collections of everybody else's thoughts - so kudos on that.
I noted several 2nd year players that you have spiking higher.
As a fan, you might have a better read on your team (EDM) than others.
So what do you like about Jussi Jokinen (who you have higher than all others) and what don't you like about Ryan Strome (who you have lower than all others)?
Perhaps I should have included games played as this is mostly what is driving the difference. Strome has averaged 70 games the past two seasons, a growing trend. Jokinen has a longer track record and while he missed time last year, he's generally been good for 80 games. I also think Strome is a bit of a dud, especially as an Eberle replacement. He's cheaper but also not as good and comes with the same deficiency (a poor one-timer) that is going to limit his potential on this team because he won't be able to effectively operate from the Ovechkin slot on the power play.
Great list. Thank you for sharing.

Interesting read. I am curious on a couple names. Your list ends at 17 pts projected so I am assuming you dont expect these names to get that many points. Guys like:
Christian Fischer
Victor Antipin
Josh Morrissey
Anders Bjork
Colin White
Ondrej Kase
Anton Slepyshev
PL Dubois
Adrian Kempe
Alexander Nylander
I couldn't find them doing a search for an upcoming draft of my own.

Thought's on Ehlers?
I was thinking more along the lines of 68-72 & ~15 PPP. Mostly a small uptick in assists from last year. Similar finish with 20goals on 200sog. (10%, down from 12.3% last year)
Skater stuff looks very legit. Sure - I differ in some areas, but what I like a lot about the list is the logic and consistency behind it. For example, if you look not just at players but their teams, the numbers you have for the skaters make sense. Many predictions fail to take that into account or create inconsistencies.
That all having been said, we have wildly divergent views on goalies. But hey - to each his own.
Thanks for sharing, and tip of the hat for the work that went into this. It's a superb resource for us to have.

Seems like everyone is bullish on Gostisbehere this season but I need some more convincing. What are you seeing that makes him a Tier 2 dman? No concerns about healthy scratches or losing PP time?
No concerns about losing PP time. If Provorov jacks PP time, it'll be from someone else. Remember, they lost Schenn this summer so there is an opening on that top unit. They experimented with Provorov on PP1 last season but that involved going 2D with Gostisbehere moving over. With the Flyers PP tentpole in his back pocket, Gostisbehere should improve if the Flyers can do anything at 5-on-5. They can't be worse at evens than last season so if there's improvement Gostisbehere should get to 50 if not more.
Thanks! Appreciate you preparing this & sharing your rankings!
