Everybody seems to be picking Chara from the Bruins, Am I right to assume the Chara is the only good player the Bruins have and 21 Bruins Suck
Chara and Thomas were the difference makers last year. Thomas is struggling a bit. Chara makes EVERYONE on your team play bigger. He is the toughest guy in the NHL right now.
I tried to stay true to position and avoid elcs. ive got a few but not too many. This team would be brutal to play against in a seven game series though. Not sure how good in a shootout after datsyuk though.

Ok, I think that's all 30.
Pouliot? Letang over Malkin? My mind is full of fuu...

Well, for me, it came down to making a 20 man roster.
Guys like Bergeron, Lucic and Thomas are all great, but Chara is a better Dman than Bergeron is a centerman.
Thomas was the only other real choice for me, but Price was a lock for Montreal, and I chose Lundqvist over Tim.
Pouliot? Letang over Malkin? My mind is full of fuu...
I like Pouliot...
Again, the only parameters set by the OP is 1 player from each team. As I said before, I know Malkin > Letang, I know Chara > Pouliot. But that is a team full of players I like, not who I think are the most talented in the league.
