Blake got screwed in the last round, so I'm voting for him. The zero games I have ever watched of Blake has given me unsurpassed insight that other posters can't touch.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Poll?

Koivunen got screwed in the last round, so I'm voting for him. The zero games I have ever watched of Koivunen has given me unsurpassed insight that other posters can't touch.

AIN'T NOBODY GETTING YOUR VOTE WITHOUT A DAMN POLL BRUH!!

I think it's Blake's ceiling that is so enticing.

 

[WreckingCrew]

I think it's Koivunen's ceiling that is so enticing.

Is it made of glass? Or is he one of them fancy rafters & vaulted without popcorn kinda guy?

 

[SlavinAway]

Stop the vote! This election is rigged.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Stop the vote! This election is rigged.

@DaveG already knows who he's gonna pick so why bother with the rest?

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I think it's Koivunen's ceiling that is so enticing.

Koivunen's ceiling is probably as a AAAA, NHL/AHL tweener, but his floor is solidly as a 3rd line NHLer.

 

[SlavinAway]

Koivunen's ceiling is probably as a AAAA, NHL/AHL tweener, but his floor is solidly as a 3rd line NHLer.

Is this some inverted relativity assessment?

 

[WreckingCrew]

Koivunen's ceiling is probably as a AAAA, NHL/AHL tweener, but his floor is solidly as a 3rd line NHLer.

What in the anti-gravity are you talking about?

I can say, with 100% certainty, he will never be any better than Koivunen, and will never be any worse than Koivunen

 

[Unsustainable]

What about from the windows to the walls for the prospects?

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Koivunen's ceiling is probably as a AAAA, NHL/AHL tweener, but his floor is solidly as a 3rd line NHLer.

What kind of floor though? Hardwood? LVP? Laminate? Carpet? Concrete?

Details matter when we are talking bout ceilings and floors.

Mr Fancypants here, back in my day we slept on the GROUND under the stars, AND WE WERE THANKFUL FOR IT!! We didn't have "floors", we had Mother Earth

Stuffing the ballot box. We get it

I may be one of the only ones but I still believe Ryan Suzuki can be a good NHL player for us

I agree. He looked NHL ready this last preseason to my eye, and I think would be playing on many teams. He's had a rough path to be sure, but there's pretty mature talent there.

 

[WreckingCrew]

I don't disagree...when he's gotten to play consistently he's shown some great skills, problem is just he can't seem to string enough good games between injuries to really get a proper evaluation of talent vs sample size.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

What kind of floor though? Hardwood? LVP? Laminate? Carpet? Concrete?

Details matter when we are talking bout ceilings and floors.

And why do we focus so much on floors and ceilings when there's so much room in between?

What about their countertops and backsplash?

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

I went Jackson Blake here. Super-low floor, but shows a lot of skills in the NCAA that could make him a decent NHL contributor in the middle six.

 

[bleedgreen]

I feel like Koivunen is probably the right choice but I’m going with Blake. I think he’s going to find a way to be an NHL’er and while Koivunen is more skilled he’s more of a question mark to me.

This could be me picking Carrick over Slavin though…

 

[A Star is Burns]

I'm in the toss-up between Blake and Koivunen camp as well. They're both fun prospects that have a chance to be something and are having great years. When in doubt, bloodliiinnneeezzzz.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

koivunen, rykov, blake in that order

 

[Daeavorn]

I chose Koivunen just because we seem to have more success with European forwards than we do North American ones.
