Dec 08, 2020, 04:52 PM
Pete and Rob run through the most compelling fantasy player debates ahead of the new season based on either their NHL.com/Fantasy positional rankings or fan questions. Debates include Nathan MacKinnon vs. Connor McDavid at the top, Leon Draisaitl vs. Auston Matthews, Alex Ovechkin vs. Mika Zibanejad and Brayden Point vs. Sebastian Aho. The guys make the case for a few different goalies for the No. 2 spot at the position, including Carter Hart, Tuukka Rask and Robin Lehner and weigh the value of other potential 2021 UFA goalies like Frederik Andersen, Philipp Grubauer and Jordan Binnington. Compelling defenseman debates included Cale Makar vs. Quinn Hughes, Dougie Hamilton vs. Roman Josi and Rasmus Dahlin vs. Miro Heiskanen.
