Assume we've stopped doing adds. The remaining list gets us to 20.

I still think we should continue to do adds regardless, because nobody ever anticipates that and folks tend not to plan accordingly, and everybody's top 20s are different. ("What do you mean I can't have Anderson in my top 20?!?!?!" and so forth )
Besides, I like seeing "honorable mentions".
(That said, all I had left to add for my top 20 was Madaisky at #20. Everyone else added would be for HM purposes.)
EDIT: If you don't want to go to the trouble of doing extra polls, I'll happily do 'em.

Thanks, Howson, for cleaning up MacLean's toxic waste. Welcome, Kekalainen; let's get good things built!

Can we see some threads put together by all of the mods then. I think that will be more interesting, and maybe more accurate
Pretty sure that runs counter to my point. Don't care that the collective list doesn't match up with someone's personal ranking. At least not for this particular exercise.
No, but he does need it as A skill to succeed at the NHL level.
If he's got a good first pass, sound in his own zone, and speed, he has a chance. Having a shot is great for a Dman, but its not a must have quality. Look at Marc Methot.

Was going to post exactly this. Methot and Hejda are two great examples.
Madaisky can't shoot to save his life. Nowhere near NHL caliber.
I can only speak to what I saw of him the few times I saw him and your assertion was not what came to mind. But to be honest, I was watching many thing when watching him. His shot didn't seem to be a detriment. If he can get the puck through on occasion, the rest of his game sure seems pretty darn good for a 13-15 prospect.
Your hyperbole is fairly amusing since he managed 13 goals this season. Very respectable total.
