If you want to get really technical, first decide how you think the playoffs are going to go, for eg. if you think the Canucks will eliminate the Wings(I do, but I'm a little biased 🙂 ), then don't choose, in this case, any Wings. So, decide who will win the 1st round, then the second..etc. Then choose which players are likely to score/assist/win(goalies) the most if all goes according to your prediction. Since the Canucks will make it to the finals ( 😀 ), Naslund, Cloutier, and Bertuzzi are shoo ins!

Anyway, I'm suppose to be choosing a pool team as well, maybe after I'm finished with todays AT surfing! 😱

Forsberg is a huge risk. He hasn't played competitively in quite a long time. Markus Naslund or Todd Bertuzzi are good choices, but you run the risk that they get bounced by Detroit in the first round (it's tough to tell if Detroit has been mailing it in recently or if they just all of a sudden started sucking). Since the Pens were eliminated I can't even name the playoff teams right now. I'd have to look and see who's in to come up with a good list.

They will be eliminated by Colorado next round.
