Lets say theres a major rearrangement in the league and everyone is scrambled except for seven players. Who would you build your team around ? I want to know your decision as I cant stop my choice to seven precise names. I would have to go with
Is it just me or I have seen some people not protecting Jason Spezza?
It's funny because without him we are most likely a lottery team and it showed in 2010-11 (the team mainly struggled when he wasn't playing, outside of that the team didn't have a record to draft 5th overall)
My list is :
The 5 building blocks ( 2 D, 2 C, 1 G)
Spezza
Karlsson
Cowen
Turris
Lehner
And (our 2 best Wingers when Alfie retires) :
Michalek
Silfverberg
I'm torn between Zibanejad, Stone and Silfverberg but Silver Surfer is the safest bet to be a great player
Is it just me or I have seen some people not protecting Jason Spezza?
Just Tuna, so technically not people, just a person.
Anyway. If it's NHL roster protection:
Spezza
Michalek
Anderson
Karlsson
Cowen
Turris
Zibby/Silfv/Stone*
* Whichever of the three is on the roster, I only anticipate one makes it to start the year
If it's the whole org:
Spezza
Karlsson
Lehner
Cowen
Zibanejad
Turris
Anderson
My logic here is to give us a solid current roster and a solid future roster, with a current star and future star at each position. We'd be banking on finding some gems in the reorganization to replace Stone/Silfv/Ceci/depth prospects.

Interesting that you'd save Zibanejad over Stone or Silfverberg (maybe we should make a poll Okay I'll do it)
Also, I don't think we should (hypothetically) save 2 goalies... We're talking about 1 position (only 1 goalie per game) vs 12 forwards and 6 D-men
We'd be losing another key player or prospect (Michalek, Stone, Silfverberg, Ceci...) to save both goalies
If you guys wanna know I started this whole thread for a fantasy league. I kinda wanted to try to win this cause its for fun right. So here are the seven Ive chosen
Spezza
Michalek
Karlsson
Anderson
Silfverberg
Zibanejad
Cowen
And yet Ive been able to select Nathan Horton and Michael Ryder. Cant wait to see the remaining picks. My friend got Chicago and his team looks crazy now :
