Tier III
Barkov / McDavid / Kesler / Spezza / Krejci / Couture / Scheifele / Monahan / Johansen / O'Reilly / Mackinnon / Duchene / Eichel /
As for point totals, I'd be weary of them. The Flames are a very dangerous offense and no doubt Monahan has some contribution to that but I'd wager our blue line and high-risk high-reward offensive system has the most contribution to that.

Fixed your Tiers. Malkin is as good as Crosby. There really isn't much separating the guys I listed in the 2nd tier. Third tier is young guys looking to move up and guys that are trending somewhat down.
When did Barkov become the defensive center in the league? Ever heard of Bergeron? Datsyuk? Toews?
