A quick question....WHy is every one so high on Matt Clark?

I mean he is 6'3" 200+lbs, has a limited offensive upside, and isnt all that mobile.

I think he will be an NHLer, but I would be highly dissapointed if my team selected him in the 2nd round.

I see him more likely going between 65 and 85.

Clark doesn't seem to have a very high-end potential, but he doesn't have any major flaws either. He plays safe, and I believe he has more in him offensively. I could see him becoming a 2nd pairing D-man in the NHL. If my Avs select a steady #4 D-man with for example the 49th pick (Montreals), I'm very happy.

I actually think he's getting undervalued, Clark in the late 2nd round is a steal. Defensemen like Leddy and McNabb going ahead of him is scandalous.

I dont know much about Clark, but McNabb is a beast. He's a big kid who fights, throws huge hits, and is scoring more than Shea Weber was at the same age.

Huh?

Leddy is a slick skating, cerebral assassin from the back end, I realize he plays against lesser competition but he dominates.

Mr. Hockey in Minnesota usually goes in the 1st round, or early 2nd. He is ahead of Aaron Ness and Jake Gardiner at the same level, both those guys went 40th an 17th respectively.

McNabb and Clark are closer, but you would think a guy playing with Hodgson, Duchene, and Grachev would put up more than 20 points.

Clark should be taken between 65 ane 85, im shocked he is leading this race right now.

Even though I voted Chiasson to be moved up, for the tie-breaker why don't you just take the top guy? He would have been put on the list earlier so he probably deserves to go up.

Saves you from having to expand the poll like before.

With me forgetting to vote, I'll vote for Chiasson to move up, and Clark to stay.
