4/5 players are NHL captains... great forecheck, great def responsibility... lacking pure offensive flair.

I reaaaaly don't like Riberio as a person. But you can't deny he has skills on the ice. a 71 point season last year (10 in centers) and he would be a #1 on most teams.

Ya ive had one eye on Ribiero and im not surprised he has slipped this far as he seems to be not well liked.

I updated the rosters all the way to the Jets and DoctaJones I noticed you forgot to put Eberle's 1st career nhl goal in your video highlights....

If I were a GM of an NHL team, I'd go to great lengths to make sure players like Ribeiro were NEVER a part of my team. He's talented, but not conducive to winning, IMO.

Doesn't matter about pure offensive flair, that top line is by far my favourite by any team picked, the heart and soul would bulldoze over any line.

Its not really fair to show that video highlight of Ribiero there. I heard a gunshot in the video so obviously he was hurt

If Riberio wasn't a complete d-bag he would had gone earlier.

You're right about that... but he is a d-bag, so he didn't.

What other Cs do you have thus far?

Which is why his team so far would be great for the scoring system I would have set up if we did the pool.

Ok, 11 picks until my Hawks, and 6 guys on my list. The question is, will I get one!?

Haha, I was going to but reconsidered. As a Flames fan I can admit it's a beautiful goal despite him embarrassing our D and Kipper

Thats what i was thinking. i like them as a one,two punch down the middle. With Riberio's playmaking skills he can feed Stamkos the puck on the PP.
