Fantasy draft, feels like im cheating

So i did my fantasy draft, I am playing the leafs. I drafted all young upcoming talent never drafting over the age of 26.

I traded for steven stamkos and Phil Kessel.

My thoughts so far?

Cory schnieder is going to be an awesome goalie, he has A- rated potential and has been my starter thus far, with a GAA of 1.75 and has made some stupid good saves. Weaknesses? lateral movement I would say, he can be a bit slow getting across the net, but hey he is still in biog time development!

Phil Kessel is exactly as advertised, hes quick, finds the open holes and can snipe big time, being a leafs fan anyways I am already a kessel fan but, he is putting up big numbers this year.

Brian Rolston was a pleasent surprise for me, I dont get to see many minny games, and its general knowledge he has a huge shot and can play the point on a PP but he is also very defensivly responsable.

Del zotto is a beast on the power play and teemu ahonen likes to slash.

Doughty has been a semi sleeper for me thus far, but has solid numbers, if anything he has just been a stud of stability.

Stamkos has pretty much floated so far this year, scrumming up maybe 7 assists, hes about 55% in the circle, and running my top line with kessel and Rolston, combined with the top PP unit you would think he would add more, but hey give the kid some time!
and maybe a trip to the second unit wouldnt hurt, tavares or turris im sure wouldnt mind the chance on the big dog line.
