    Well at first glance I was gonna say team A because of Crosby essentially, but then I noticed the difference in goaltending. So I vote team B

    Team B: Better D, better goalies, and depth/bench players that are already proven and contribute in multiple categories. The forwards are a wash, however Team A will win A and PPP every week.

    Another vote for Team B. I like Team As forwards better but Team Bs Goaltending is much better and as Slufoot said, it's depth is way better too.

    There are a few injury concerns on Team B tho (Burrows, Staal)

    Its a close call. but Team B wins. I was trying to justify voting Team A, but couldn't. But, hey, everything looks shiny before the season starts.

    I'm voting for Team A. I think people are underestimating Quick and Anderson (once again). Goaltending is only 4 categories while skaters have 7 categories. I think Team A's players are much better offensively.

    Team A has more top end offensive talent, but team B definitely has the better Goaltending and D. Team A has a few boom/bust picks so it could go either way.

    My vote is for Team B simply because it seems like the safer bet

    Team B for me. Goaltending is 4/11 categories, and Team B's goaltending should be much better in terms of every single goaltending category.

    Quick's SV%, GAA, and SO numbers are a handicap in this league.

    Brodeur, Bryz, and Howard? Yes please!

    Thats a tough one for me, as mentioned outside of goaltending I would probably lean towards Team A but then again Team B has some multi cat studs (Perry, Burrows). I would say over a season, that if Anderson and Quick post similar numbers to last year Team A would win, but I would be more comfortable going in to the season with team B. I guess that doesnt really answer the questions but thats what I got for you.

    Burrows is a zero-stat guy as long as he's injured.

    Yes but he isnt expected to be out all season and for some reason I was responding to this as H2H so Burrows would have been an immediate boost once he returned to the lineup.
