Just going to start this thread now since I am sort of intrigued to see how the list plays off. They can't do any worse than ESPN's list, but lets see how much TSN's bias truly shows.

Will TSN favorites like Kessel and Hall make the top 20? Perhaps even the top 10? Kadri in the top 50?

We all know who number one is, but who is number two? Ovechkin, Malkin, Toews, or perhaps Datsyuk?

Top goalie? It will probably be Lundqvist or Quick, but I think Rask and Niemi could also be in that conversation based of their play last season.

Then for defensemen, will there be a Subban bias with all the media buzz surrounding him last year? He shouldn't finish in the top five defenders (Suter, Weber, Chara, Kieth, Doughty, and Pietrangelo are all better), but what will TSN say?

Oh and after missing out on the ESPN list will Bobby Ryan crack the top 50 at all? Probably not, but wouldn't be shocked if he did.
