Jerry Mander's Ideal Line
Center: Nickolas Klaus ![Knights Knights](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/knights2.png)
- It's a real no-brainer for people constructing the ultimate lineup that the season's points leader from the center spot should be taking face-offs, right? To boot, he only had 18 PIM and maintained a just-above-league-average 12.99% shooting. I just hope he's a nice guy to be around.
Left Wing: Noah Nowes ![Whalers Whalers](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/whalers2.png)
- Although his point total is impressive (24G, 29A), it's his lack of physical presence that begs Mander to accompany him. The physical play of Mander would open up the lanes for Klaus and Nowes to feed each other infinite dimes for [mathematically near] infinite goals. That style's just fine with me!
Right Wing: Jerry Mander ![Outlaws Outlaws](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/outlaws3.png)
It me
Defense: Kalevi Karhunen ![Armada Armada](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/armada2.png)
- Karhunen is interesting. He has - by far - the highest rating among all Armada players, with a +18. He also has an incredible shooting percentage (25.00%). I don't really need the firepower - I need the discipline that very few PIMs implies, not that much physicality, shot blocking, and that positive rating.
Defense: Cassius Darrow ![Raptors Raptors](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/raptors-new.png)
- Even though the Raptors are complete trash and I like very little about them, Darrow is a clean exception. He is pass-first, which is very rare among defensemen who score as much as he does. On top of that, 63 shot blocks led his team (by FAR) and is good for top 20 in the league. Only 27 hits means I can pick up the physical weight for everybody around me as well, while they score. It's perfect.
Goalie: Petr Vrana ![Militia Militia](https://simulationhockey.com/images/smilies/militia2.png)
- I don't care about who's in goal, honestly, as long as he's cool. Are
you cool, Petr?
And that's my line! We gon' score a LOT.
