Notes:
-I have Crosby at #1... because I feel that is a smart risk for most fantasy hockey GMs. Personally, I'd draft Stamkos first... because I have confidence I can still build a winning support cast against a healthy Team-Crosby. It's kind of hard argument to explain. In short, a healthy Crosby can win a team a championship even with a shit support cast on the fantasy team.
-I know I'm in the minority, but I like Tavares over Giroux. Not kidding. If I had Giroux in a keeper multi-cat, I'd trade him straight-up for Tavares, and I'm a Flyers fan. (yes, true)
-E.Staal & Toews are next in line for me. Their ceiling is 90pts and they'll never go higher, but they are great locks for stats per game.
-H.Sedin really isn't THAT great a multi-cat center, by numbers. However, he lacks in SOG/PIM/Hits... and the perfect compliment can be found fairly easily out there, David Clarkson (for example), so Hank has still top ten value.

I like Tavares over Giroux as well.
I agree re: Staal. Consistency is important and often underrated.
Which is why I like Sedin. He is money in the bank for 60+ assists. Can't find that guaranteed production elsewhere. And you can easily hedge other categories, as you said above.
