I don't normally ask for help with my pools...but i go in one every year where we simply have to pick any 20 players in the league, 1 point = 1 point. I already know 19 of the guys i'm taking, but am having trouble deciding on final pick. Just curious what you folks on here think. The guys i'm considering are...

Bobby Ryan
Jarome Iginla
Matt Duchene
Henrik Zetterberg
Marian Gaborik

What? Was Malkin on the list? Malkin i'd have for sure, everyone's expecting a pretty good season out of him! As for the others, i'd avoid Z and Gaborik, if for no other reasons than injuries and i'd prob go with Ryan, Iginla and Duchene, in that order.

No i meant i forgot Malkin altogether, he's definitely in my top 20. I'm one of the people who think he's going to have a monster season.

Bobby Ryan
Jarome Iginla
Matt Duchene
Henrik Zetterberg
Marian Gaborik

My first choice here is Malkin. He can make 10 more points than others players while miss 10 or 15 games.

Second are Zetterberg or Iginla. Both are consistent point producer

Third are Ryan or Duchene. Two players with strong upside but Selanne play again this year and cut pp time to Ryan. Duchene is great but Colorado is very weak this year.

Last pick is Gaborik. The injury risk is simply too important.

the fact that you say that 19 of 20's guyrs are picked and you are trying to decide for your 20th pick to be one of these guys makes me question your hockey knowledge. ryan, iginla, zetterberg are all top five guys to have in a pool. unless your doing a box style pool i would say your in some serious trouble. hahah good luck
