Are you criticising my team? jk

Fair points - there is some risk and I did that on purpose. As I was going, if I had a position I did look for safer players but sometimes tried to focus on players that would have prime ice time/opportunity on their respective clubs to do well (e.g. not as buried by depth etc). If most pan out and stay healthy, then I hope to contend. But you never know.

Things I need / would like from my players:

- Karlsson to have as good a season as last year, to offset my weaker depth
- Iginla not to start slowly and click with Tanguay
- Koivu to stay healthy
- Streit to be the Streit of old
- Wheeler / Flash to show that last year was no fluke
- Ennis / Zajac to be number one centres (or on top line) for most of the season, which ensures top PP time
- Johnson to improve to 35 points full season pro-rated
- For Zidlicky to bomb so Larsson can get better PP minutes
- For Philadelphia and Anaheim to have limited schedule conflicts so I can maximise my goalie games without too much decision making on whom to start

That's all.
