Tough to pass on Lindros and Modano, but went with Ovi. Guy's an absolute beast, still has many years of success and perhaps some Stanley Cups ahead of him.

CupS? Don't see him getting by teams built like the Rangers, with their shot-blocking and stud goalie. His game has gotten better since he's been driving to the net and shooting pretty frequently but he'll still be in tough against teams with systems and the big, rugged style of western conference teams, who'll surely play him tight and focus on stopping his blasts. For someone whose success comes primarily from shooting (he's an elite shooter, I'd give him that) it'd still be tough for him to win in the team-oriented, 200-ft., all-round style of the NHL.

Not picking on your comment but he's not someone that a team on this side of the pond can build a champion team around, and if I'm trying to build a contender I'd go for someone else.
