Alexei Emelin. Not worth 4,1 millions, but not a cap dump like some thinks. As I say that, he makes a ****y play!

My vote for Columbus is Mark Letestu easily. Guy can do it all but usually centers the 4th line 5on5 so he doesnt get any recognition

The Sharks? It used to be Vlasic but he started getting serious love the last couple years. I guess I'd go Wingels or Braun, but they are also getting some love as well now.

Ryan Garbutt. People justifiably hate since he is a dirty SOB, but he is a good hockey player. He kills penalties, great skater, solid defensively, and even produces offence at an above average rate for a third liner.

Luke Glendening, 4th line Center

Agitates, hits, PK's wonderfully, even scores the occasional goal.

He's nearly Helm circa 2009.

Butler. Tarasenko, Schwartz and Shatty getting all the talk but Butler is playing solid D.

Chris Tanev, people constantly call this guy overrated but he's an absolute stud he and Edler are anchoring our d-core right now and are forming one of the most effective d pairing in the league (first in CorsiRel last time I checked) it's especially hilarious seeing as the media still believes Kevin Bieksa is a better player than Chris Tanev when in reality I'd say Tanev is right up there with Hamhuis.

Um, I'd have to go with Higgins. Everyone hates him, but he does well enough for a guy who's always expected to step out of his comfort zone and produce.

I always liked Tanev

On the Habs I'd say Markov. He's been great for us this year.

I was one of those who said that Markov was probably done , with all his knee injuries over the past years , but i was wrong. Markov makes everyone arround him better . When the Habs have a problem with one of their Dman all they have to do is make that guy play with Markov . Great vision on the ice , very underrated player who is always there to fix another player's mistake .

Niklas Hjalmarsson and Brandon Saad

Hjalmarsson is a great defensive defenseman. Solid in his own zone, blocks a bunch of shots and kills penalties.

Saad is a good all around player. Can play on the PP and the PK. Good playmaker and is improving scoring wise. He's also a good skater.
