Leivo is gonna be probably a nice 2nd line winger, at worst a 3rd.
Gauthier I believe we all arrived at 3rd line centre...."probably"
Andreas Johnson - Again probably a nice 2nd line winger
Verhaeghe - no idea - He could be anything from a...and dare I say it, 1st line centre (I like all the tools and talent I am seeing, I just need to see him grow, and play with great NHL players) to nothing.
Brown is top 6, maybe top 9 or bust. I like a lot of elements in his game.
i agree on brown, gauthier and johnson. however, veraheghe would have to be better than at least bozak to be a first line c, of which i've seen no indication, let alone kadri or even nylander. he's more likely a third liner if he makes it; i don't see overall skills better than holland at this point although maybe his vision is a bit better.
leivo at best will be a third liner imo. to put it in perspective, he got 23 goals in the ahl (i know it was his rookie year). even if he gets more i doubt he will break 30, and might not even break 20 in the nhl. not second line material. lupul at his best could win a game by himself and at times rivalled kessel in impact 2 seasons ago. i don't think leivo is anywhere near that category.
