No Kopitar in the top 25 who went from #6 going into last season to missing the list in 2019.
On Aug 18 it will be interesting where they slot Gio in the top 20 defensemen. He missed the list last year ... Hamilton came in at #18.

Just goes to show how much these writers know. They're just going off their very short memories rather than weighing qualities of players from a career scope. There's also a lot of personal bias and fandom that inevitably factors in. Like these McDavid scabs that see a fast guy with quick hands and immediately decide to overlook the other facets of his game.
