Bahl is a decent prospect but this poll is heavily skewed by recency bias. He came in and had a nice couple games at the end of the year so everybody is feeling really good about him. That's about it.
He's going to be a nice #4/#5 guy that can PK, that's about it. Guys like that should not be #6 on your prospect list. Putting him higher than guys like Clarke and Stillman is pure madness IMO.
The song remains the same
I keep over looking Clarke...Not sure why? I think because his last full year in the OHL wasn't all that inspiring - We know not to expect anything from Bahl offensively...Bahl is a decent prospect but this poll is heavily skewed by recency bias.

I do understand one is 2000 birth(2018 draft) and the other 2001(2019 draft) Still one is a no-offense Dman.

You have Clarke over Bahl though?
I think his 18 pts in 31 games for Bingo as a mostly 19 year old are pretty promising for a more recent stat line. I think Clark has a higher ceiling as a middle 6 sniper type player vs Bahl who's ceiling is maybe #4 defensive defensemen who can PK. TBF Clark might have more of a chance of not hitting his ceiling compared to Bahl.I keep over looking Clarke...Not sure why?

Bahl's production against Clarke's production on the same team isn't all that encouraging for a forward of any type...But his AHL numbers this year weren't bad.

Bahl was 18, 2018-19 was his third season in juniors. Bahl’s equivalent season is 2017-18 season, his draft year:I keep over looking Clarke...Not sure why? I think because his last full year in the OHL wasn't all that inspiring - We know not to expect anything from Bahl offensively...

Yeah, I didn’t pick a side. (I voted Stillman.)I think his 18 pts in 31 games for Bingo as a mostly 19 year old are pretty promising for a more recent stat line.

I think this part of a prospect's profile is severely overlooked by some, especially my friendsBahl is a decent prospect but this poll is heavily skewed by recency bias. He came in and had a nice couple games at the end of the year so everybody is feeling really good about him. That's about it.

Zep was/is/will always be a favorite of mine, I'm a huge Jimmy Page fan, but as a live act Zep was not the best, to put it nicely, especially the two front men Page and PlantI enjoy that movie more now than I did in my youth where I regarded the performance as sloppy and and the fantasy sequences as self indulgent. I will say that their decision not to supplement the band”s lineup when playing live meant that some songs just wouldn’t sound like the studio overdubbed version.
Ya. Visiting my dad in the hospital. It's ready but I forgot to post it before I left.The people demand #7!!! Or just asking politely for the next slot
Ugh. I feel like a Richard. Hope all is well with pops.Ya. Visiting my dad in the hospital. It's ready but I forgot to post it before I left.
Meh... no way for you to know.Ugh. I feel like a Richard. Hope all is well with pops.

Plus, I'm just a slacker anyway
Quite easily the second as L.Hughes is far from the best player right now.But are we voting on where we see these prospects NOW… or are we voting on who we think is going to be the best player?
