Glad to see you back with another tournament. And honestly, this one is very exciting, because this is the first tournament you do where I not only have no idea who should be #1, I don't even have a clear top 3 or top 5.

Should be a fun one to follow.

For this matchup I voted Quinn Hughes. This was a phenomenal season for him.

Really looking forward to this one as well. Not a huge defense guy tbh so I'm hoping to learn a lot from all the discussions.

Making the matchups was really fun for that very reason too. I honestly have no idea who's gonna win this tournament either. Should be some really close matchups.

It's Hughes, he controlled the play at a level elite among even Norris winners.

Thank - you incompetent Wings management for passing on Hughes…..and also Hronek…they are the gift that keeps on giving……
