I agree with almost all of these except Defensive Forward. You really should have included Tanev. Name one other player who literally sacrificed his body and/or stick almost every game to block pucks? I lost count of how many times he handed off his stick to a team mate whose stick broke and then used his body to block shots.
Tanev probably does have the highest number of heroic blocks as a forward and I could've included him but there is more to good defense than just blocking shots. Still he'd be easy top 5
@CheapSeatsSports That's great. Being in the UK hockey fans are very rare so be great to have somewhere to be able to talk to fellow hockey and Kraken fans
Thanks for this. I thought you nailed the majority of the categories. Felt very celebratory. GO KRAKEN!

Do you have a discord channel?
I don't yet but I have it on my list of things to get ready for next season!
