When I was trying to rank centers I tried to keep everything from surrounding players to potential in mind. However, one of the best indicators for predicting future performance is past performance, so that was also considered and held either strongly, or against, certain players.

You might have it laid out somewhere but I didn't see it. Some of these guys are really hard to know which tier to put them in. A guy like Staal is inconsistent but that 100 point season might have me wanting to slot him higher on my draft list then Henrik Sedin who is always going to get you 80 points or so. Jokinen is a super intriguing pick because with a new coach coming into town and what I can only imagine will be a better year from a few players, he could really do well. He's also only 30, so still a few very good years potentially left in him. It seems like you might be rating consistency as a prime motivator for bumping guys up/down a tier. Not criticizing at all, just as an fyi, but just trying to get a feel for where you guys are coming from for interest sake.
