My bad that I think someone who has been cheating regression doesn't deserve praise!

You have to break a rule to be cheating. There's no rule against the method he used. So while it may be frowned upon to work a loophole in the system... I don't think he's a "cheater". But I understand what you mean. But there's nothing stopping every single other member from doing it either

</div>8. (S18) LW (Winnipeg Jets) Vidrik Onoprienko || -7
Grade: 71/80 || Average: 8.875
Past Seasons: S20-67, S21-49, S22-26, S23-7, S24-1
At number 8 is Vidrik Onoprienko. While he will consider this a big disappointment being knocked from the top, Onoprienko still had an incredible season and remains a top-10 player for the third straight season. He dropped his point totals for the season, scoring 48 points instead of 53 last year, but took on a lot more PK minutes which affected his ability to produce offensively. He has become a much more well-rounded player and while he won't always be a PPG guy, he will still bring that two-way game that you want in a franchise forward. This is a player who we won't be surprised to see in the top-10 for the next 10 years due to his play and commitment to the team.

[b]10. (S20) D (Los Angeles Panthers) - Valterri Bottas || +38
Grade: 69/80 || Average: 8.625
Past Seasons: S22-76, S23-44, S24-48
Starting out the number 10 is Panthers defenseman Valterri Bottas. The young defenseman had a severe down year in S23 with only 6 goals and 22 points, but the defenseman showed quite a bit of resilience when he came out as the best Western Conference defenseman in S25 with 47 points on the season, 54 shot blocks, a great deal of special teams time, and finished 2nd in Stevens voting. While some may argue that he won't be able to hit this point total next year, this is his second 40+ point season in the last three years, and Bottas has certainly shown great strides in consistency compared to previous years, making it unlikely he will drop in production by a significant amount. Despite not being able to take home the Challenge Cup, Bottas is looking towards next season and has solidified himself as one of the top defensemen in the league.[/b]
My fantasy pick my fantasy pick woo woo

Yeah I guess, thanks.
S23 was definitely a down year offensively but Bottas did finish 5th in the league in shot blocks and compile 100 hits while playing more of a defensive role.

Wow, Ono had a great season too!
The SHL is full of superstar players now.

Congrats to the bae Bottas.

</div>7. (S16) C (Texas Renegades) - Maxim Horvat || +53
Grade: 71/80 || Average: 8.875
Past Seasons: S20-94, S21-77, S22-51, S23-41, S24-60
Coming in at number 7 is center Maxim Horvat. Horvat had a coming out party of sorts, with 23 goals and 57 points, shattering his last two point totals and having one of the best individual seasons among all forwards. Can he replicate this season and remain in contention as a top-10 player in the SHL? Only time will tell, as consistency-wise, he has not pulled off multiple seasons like this as of recently. But the player still has gas in the tank and he could be a late-blooming superstar.
