Which player do you disagree with?
Who should I have put on there instead?

Well obviously by my avatar I would have Getzlaf on that list... He's been injured most of this season, so his stats don't reflect, but I would argue that you don't have a shutdown line (which is just as important as a scoring line) I would probably have Getzlaf/Bergeron with either Benn or Gaudreau then sacrifice one scoring center and one right wing to fit them in probably Crosby and Wheeler/Kane and bump lines to move them down to the 4th line so it would look something like:
Ovi/McD/Kuch
Benn/Malkin/Kane
Stamkos/Tavares/Tarasenko
Johhny Hockey/Getz/Bergy
Still not my optimal set up, but it looks better already
Then on D you don't have Gostisbehere or OEL? I'd probably trade Josi and Keith TBH and rotate Burns to the top pairing
Hedman/Burns
Ghost/Karlsson
OEL/Doughty
Again not the "best" but you're looking better...
Then goalies... This is personal preference too... give me the choice and I start Rinne and back him up with Gibson (there are some things stats can't measure like Gibson's outstanding play behind a terrible Anaheim Ducks start this season; he still managed to maintain a .924 S% and a 2.55 GAA in spite no help at the beginning of this season)
see... "best" is subjective...
