Thanks guys! Took Tavares, It's for a hockey game.. You draft your team.. I was considering each of the players on the poll. Some people are saying he is amazing, but he is too unproven, with no playoff experiences.

That wont matter if you are doing a SIM game haha

Guys like MSL are obviously incredible players but they are older than JT

JT might be one of the best players to build your core around in the entire league

Starting a team from scratch for one season only seems odd.

St. Louis would probably be my pick for one season only. But If I am in fact starting a franchise and assume I'll be going for more than a season I'd build around Tavares.

For 1 season? Why would you start a team for just 1 season?

For 1 season: Zetterberg

To actually start a team and build a franchise: Tavares

Thought it was "who do you take for 1 year only", so I picked Z for a cup run.

Tavares if I'm starting a franchise.

Tavares is the easy choice if you're starting a franchise... thought it was for one season only, in which case I'll take the midget.

Out of all these players, only two outscored the only defenceman on this list this year.

I'd still go with Tavares over EK for starting a new franchise though.

I was going to go with Tavares but if its just for one season, Zetterberg for me. I'm a sucker for elite two-way centers.
