Solid mix of O and D on your back end, but I feel like after your top 5 fwds, it just falls off a cliff. Wildcard team maybe?

Yeah I loaded up on the Defense. Thought they would make up for the lack of offense upfront somewhat. I like the third line personally as a heavy forecheck/shut down line. And I think Sheary is a great value fourth liner. Debated dumping Sergachev for a couple better wingers and sliding Dermott into the 6th d hole. Might have been the way to go.

Yeah, I'd be worried that MacKinnon's HOF-type offense would fall off playing with Coleman and Hyman. Plus, the lack of front end production would probably hurt the D, because teams would just load up on them. Hughes, Makar and Heiskanen are amazing, but part of it is the fact that they have other dynamic players playing with them, which makes it harder to defend against.

Though, you could always just set Frk up to bomb one times up front Ovi-style...guy has an absolute cannon.

Surprising Frk hasn't been able to score more in the league, I considered him on the top line with Mackinnon but I like Hyman with Matthews so figured he'd work nicely there. And there would be so much space for Mack with those two. Not a perfect team by any means but it was a fun challenge idea by Evan!
