The Locked On NHL hosts voted on the best players at each position across the league, and on today’s Locked On Predators we take a closer look at the surprising results. Nashville Predators goaltender Juuse Saros made the top five best goaltenders, but Nick and Ann explain why we think Saros is still chronically overlooked when it comes to his performance. We break down the top five goaltenders and tell you what we think has to happen for Juuse Saros to get the league wide recognition he deserves. Roman Josi made the list as one of the best defensemen in the NHL, but we have questions about a few other players in the top five. We’ll share our biggest beef with voting when it comes to ranking defensemen. Nashville didn’t have a single player make the list for best winger. Can Filip Forsbeg do enough this season to crack the top fifteen in the future? Finally, we share our very big feelings on two fun votes – the NHL’s best logo and the league’s best mascot.

What did the Locked On NHL hosts get right in their voting and what did they get wrong?
Best 'Locked on' hosts??
A player who hasn't even played one game yet SHOULD NOT be eligible for this kind of list! And it says a lot about the hype in the NHL these days that such a player does get the nod.
Ok as far logos go, and I've got to limit this to only current primary logos of current teams, so both the angular crown, that the LA Kings were using as their primary logo like a dozen or so plus years ago (and which would make my top five), and the Quebec Nordiques logo, which I had to research to figure out that it's actually SUPPOSED to look like an igloo (and would definitely not be making my top twenty-five), are not eligible. Â
So here's my top five logos:Â
Nashville PredatorsÂ
Minnesota WildÂ
Tampa Bay LightningÂ
San Jose SharksÂ
Vancouver CanucksÂ
But seriously, Seattle Kraken?!? It's an S with the vague suggestion of suction cups and an eye, much worse than a leaf.Â
And my top five mascots:Â
GnashÂ
BladesÂ
HowlerÂ
SlapshotÂ
BaileyÂ
(Sorry, demented muppets just don't do anything for me.)
