Default Ranking the Last 4 Teams

Top 2 D and Top 6 are based mostly on TOI and line pairings, but are obviously a little subjective. In my head everything seemed pretty tight, so i wanted to put it down on paper. I'm sure there are lots of debatable things here...which is the whole point of a message board...the thing I found is that there was little to choose between in most categories.


Goaltending

1. Quick
2. Crawford
2. Rask
2. Vokoun


Top 2 D

1.CHI: Keith & Seabrook
2. BOS: Chara-Boychuk
(I think the Chara is the best #1, but Boychuk is the worst #2...obviously injuries...)
2. LA: Doughty-Voynov
2. PIT: Letang-Orpik

Bottom 4 D

1. LA:
Scuderi-Regehr
Muzzin-Greene
(Martinez, Ellerby)

1. CHI:
Oduya-Hjarlmarsson
Leddy-Rozsival

3. PIT:
Martin-Niskanen
Murray-Despres
(Engelland, Eaton)

4. BOS:
Hamilton-Bartkowski
Krug-McQuaid
(Ference, Seidenberg, Redden) - If any of these guys get back they would be higher)


Top 6 Forwards

1. PIT:
Kunitz-Crosby-Dupuis
Neal-Malkin-Iginla

2. BOS:
Lucic-Krejci-Horton
Marchand-Bergeron-Jagr

2. LA:
Brown-Kopitar-Williams
Penner-Richards-Carter

2. CHI:
Saad-Toews-Hossa
Sharp-Bolland-Kane
(the way they have been playing lately they are probably 4th, but if they get going, they should be close to Pit and above the other 2...)

Bottom 6 Forwards

1. PIT:
Morrow-Sutter-Cooke
Kennedy-Vitale-Adams
(Bennett, Jokinen)

2. BOS:
Peverley-Kelly-Seguin
Paille-Campbell-Thornton

2. CHI:
Bickell-Handzus-Stalberg
Shaw-Kruger-Frolik
(Carcillo, Mayers)

2. LA:
King-Lewis-Clifford
Richardson-Fraser-Toffoli
(Stoll)
