It's bad, but not as bad as everyone claims it is.

It's probably better than Weber's, Diaz's, Campoli's, and Krapberle's.

Weber screwed again. I like Karlsson, but he had a fluke season and will be another Green. 78 points for a Dman is damn impressive though so its not the worse choice ever made.That said, for the majority of his career he will hover at around 35-50 points. Congratz.

Big Buff should not be on that list...
For most underrated Campbell would win, but Norris?

NHL is choosing for the casuals fans not actual play.
