Habsent Minded: The Lions are the pride of Québec!

Tier 1: Legitimate superstar talent. Tier 2: Top line/top pair for skaters, top-10 starter in the league for goalies. Tier 3: Top-six forward, #2/3 defenceman, or middle-of-the-pack starting goalie. Tier 4: Middle-six forward, second-pair defenceman, or bottom-10 starter in the league. Tier 5: Either surefire bottom-six/third pair potential, or boom-or-bust upside swings for skaters. Likely backup or slim odds of being a high-end starter for goalies. Tier 6: High likelihood bubble NHLer, or very slim chance of being a middle-six/second-pair/starter. Tier 7: Unlikely to play an NHL game.
