In other words, my pool only counts points (G=1 and A =1) how would you rank those players for your team?
Baertschi - Backlund-Hudler - Czervenka
Also, what are your top pairing for the PP?
I assume Wideman and ???
ANyway, thank you guys in advance for your info!
I wish you guys a good season and hope you guys make it to the playoff!

The ones you listed? Tough call. I think they're all in a similar range, to be honest; they'll probably be around 25-30 points each this season. None of them is a particularly safe pick given past production, because Hudler was babied in Detroit and given amazing linemates, Cervenka hasn't played in the NHL, Baertschi is a rookie, and Backlund had difficulty converting chances into goals last season.
I guess I'd rank them:
Backlund
Baertschi
Hudler
Cervenka
Depends heavily on how they're used during the season. If Baertschi and Backlund are paired on a secondary scoring line, then I'd definitely put my money on one of those two as the best bet.
The top PP pairing will be Wideman and Tanguay, most likely. Only other likely option I can see is Wideman-Giordano.
