So the top 15 teams in the league don't have any players below replacement level, right? That's what you're saying?

Using Tampa Bay's roster is kind of dumb, Tampa is very top heavy, with one of the best RW and C , the best Defenceman and goalie in the league. Not to mention they have arguably the best coach in the league. You take that 4th line and put it on any other team and that team is struggling to compete. But when you play a great system for a top coach, while having the best goalie and defenseman in the league behind you.... You look a lot better.
So the Tampa Bay Lightning, who have players below replacement level on their roster, obviously aren't one of the top 15 teams. Right? You said so yourself.
