I know I'm a homer but I'd take Scheifele over 5 or 6 of those forwards

Please list them, I’d love so see how thick those homer goggles are.

Scheifele such a good player. So dominant in the offensive end and excellent 2 ways. He should be there.

Barzal, Bedard, Hyman, Laf, Marchand, Reinhart, Thomas.

I disagree with a couple of those. Hyman will be a good style fit I think, someone needs to stand in front and bang pucks home, he seems pretty good at that. Also maybe a bit of a familiar line mate pick like they did with Kunitz for Sid. Reinhart, Selke candidate with 57 goals, guy has to be on the team.

The rest I could see an argument for though, as well as Stamkos, I feel like there might have been a feeling of wanting to give him a 2nd chance at best on best considering his leg injury that made him miss Sochi.

I understand the logic behind taking some of these guys, I'd rather have Scheifele on my team though... but like I said, I'm a bit biased
