Novie tell me you didn't just pick Jordan Staal over Eric? Are you sure you're not Charles Wang in disguise? In fact Ryan, which Staal do you have there on your third line. Heres my team:

Ovechkin - Crosby - Jagr
Heatley - Spezza - Alfredsson
Kovalchuk - Thornton - Hossa
Gagne - Malkin - Gionta

Pronger - Niedermayer
Chara - Phaneuf
McCabe - Redden

Brodeur

Like I said, if this is a "build your team for the future" type question, there's no way I would build a team around Jagr. I used more of a mix of youth and 'some' experience (lke Iginla and most of the D-core).

As for Staal: I'm not the only one saying Jordan is the more talented NHL'er...and apparently the youngest of 4 (Jared) has he brightest future in the league.

This is a totally opinion based question, and you got mine!

PS - Malkin would also be my 13th forward, interchangable with Staal...

7th D-man? Maybe Whitney

I hear you but Eric has proven he is an elite player. Solution - choose both and have them on the same line

I don't care what side they play, I just took who I think makes the best 12-6-2 combination of today (not necessarily the future). Man it's hard to narrow it down to so few:

F
Ovechkin - Thornton - Jagr
Kovalchuk - Crosby - Hossa
Heatley - E. Staal - Sakic
Lecavalier - Marleau - Havlat

D
Niedermayer - Pronger
Lidstrom - Chara
Zubov - Bouwmeester

G
Brodeur
Lehtonen

Forwards:
Ovechkin - Crosby - Selanne (Finesse line)
Shanahan - Thornton - Jagr (Power line 1)
Heatley - Iginla - Hossa (Power line 2)
Kariya - Lombardi - Sullivan (Speed line)
Lecavalier (on the bus)

Defense
Neidermayer - Phaneuf
Pronger - Souray
Lidstrom - Chara
Salo (on the bus)

Goalies
Kiprusoff
Brodeur
Luongo (on the bus)

Three things for my team: 1) I realize that Heatley, Iginla and Hossa are all right wingers. 2) I didn't take into account which side my d-men play, so the pairings could be a bit goofy. 3) I didn't take current injuries into account

.....? Are you seriously putting HEATLEY on the smae line with the Sedin Bros??? There are also many more capable players in the NHL than Steen. Steen has no place on a team of this caliber.


Heatley, Savard, Hossa
Ovechkin, Thornton, Spezza
Kovalchuk, Jokinen, Afinogenov
Vanek, Brierre, Vyborny
or
Gaborik, Datsyuk, Havlat(couldn't pick)

T. Kaberle, Souray
Phaneuf, Timonen
Bouwmeester, Campbell

Lehtonen
Dipietro

Working with what we have for the future kinda.

I would put the Gaborik line ahead of the Vyborny line any day.
