The composite scores below are determined on a points-based system where the top forward on each of our ranker's list is awarded 20 points, the second ranked forward is awarded 19 points, the third 18 points and so on (similar to what you'd see in MVP voting in some sports or college basketball rankings).
If you have any questions or feedback on the rankings, please don't hesitate to leave a comment below, or hit our rankers up on twitter: Schuyler Redpath, JD Bazzo and Steven Eschelbacher.
