Everyone knows that hockey isn't played on paper, but regardless, it is fun/interesting to compare.

This is their general level, not based of three meaningless exhibition games.
It is hard to be 100% fair using a rating between 1-5, since you'd like to give some players 3,5 for instance, but try to give them the rating they are closest to. Another problem are players with relatively low ratings, but who fills really important roles to their team. Just focus on their individual rating, not their importance to the team. A guy like Hagelin is a prime example of this.


I'll start with Sweden

Please add the other teams - and try to stay away from homerism as best you can. ;)

So much wrong in this
 
So much wrong in this

It was based primarily on passing eye test.

Agreed that it doesnt line up with the advanced stats particularly well.

Any particular ratings you have issues with?

The op said the rating are not based on the 3 exhibitions games, which I'm guessing is what you did since it would make more sense based on your rating. But even then, there are a few things which I don't agree

Toews has been invisible the 3 games (offensively at least), yet he gets a better rating than Perry and Duchene who both were great?

On defense, you gave Weber a rating of 3 and I don't understand that. He was used mainly in the defensive zone to counter the big guns of the other team and he did a fantastic job. He also logged the most minutes in the team. But for some reason, you gave him the same rating as muzzin who can't even crack the lineup. You also gave Burns a 4, which I completely disagree with. He got so much offensive zone time and so much powerplay time, but he did nothing with it.

If your ratings were not based on these 3 games, then there are a lot more wrongs in them.

Like if you think that Bouwmeester is better than Pietrangelo, there may not be any saving you
