Abpk I think this was you that did this list or something similar to it last year, so I'm not trying to steal this idea from you I just really like it.

D-... 31 players on a top 30 list and Patrick Kane is not even seen anywhere...

[HockeyGenie]

They're tied dude, I think I make that pretty clear. and I forgot about your boner for Kane, but good eye, bump steen to honorable mention and put Kane in at 23, that doesn't really make the list a D-.

You sure you're not upset about something else?

[konjo78]

Nope just those and that Kris letang ranking... He's not even a top 10 defenseman in the league let alone top 30 player

[HockeyGenie]

That's a joke right lol.

[konjo78]

No?? Just because you love the pens doesn't mean they are as good as you think? Kris letang gets caught looking for points way too Much and plays average defense.

[HockeyGenie]

Dude, ive expressed it multiple times, I am a kings fan just as equally as I am a pens fan. Hard to say I love them "so much" and even suggest that I have a bias. I think Letangs position in the league this year is pretty clear, he might even belong higher when it is all said and done. I thought my placement of Kopitar would stir up the most controversy.

I just realized I forgot Duncan Keith, he is definitely in the top 25 at least

[konjo78]

Big surprise pens and kings fan.... Anyone else smell bandwagoner
