Great argument, if the question was about their overall careers and not current pecking order. The current pecking order cannot include a guy who can't stay healthy. Just like it should not include guys who have had one good year. I agree that in the very near future, Provorov, Slavin, Werenski, and Skjei could all be on that list.For now, my list would read: ATL- Karlsson, Hedman, Weber, Krug, Ekblad. MET- McDonaugh, Carlson, Leddy, Jones, Faulk.
Overall:
1- Karlsson
2- Hedman
3- McDonaugh
4- Weber
5- Carlson

But if we are talking current pecking order, why is Ekblad on the list since he had an injury and didn't finish the season?
Letang still managed to play 69 and 71 games the 2 seasons prior. If you don't want to put him in the top couple thats cool, but not having him even in the top 5 for Metro is ridiculous

1. Brady Skjei- 4 playoff goals
2. Hedman
3. Karlsson- Crosby owned him, and he never owns anyone
