After that question is answered, then we can worry about relative strengths, and ceiling vs floor, and all that jazz.

The only one of those guys for whom I can look you in the eye, and without hesitation or qualifications, answer "Yes"... is Granlund.
That's one way of doing it but certainly not the only way. Heck - we don't even know if Granlund is a full time NHLer. Maybe he is a guy that goes up and down his entire career. So the fact that he has played SOME NHL games really doesn't matter.
