[Stephen]

He just looks like a straight up NHLer.

 

[kk87]

I would have said around 15 prior to tonight, but he looked really impressive for the Leafs on the back end, especially considering he's only 21. I'd slot him in at 12, ahead of Bracco.

Need to watch him more closely, but if he's like tonight more often than not, I don't think we have 11 prospects better than him.

 

[bansheebeat]

I want a new Hyman

 

[Rare Jewel]

Hyman @ 20.

 

[Hurt]

Need to watch him more closely, but if he's like tonight more often than not, I don't think we have 11 prospects better than him.

I put him in at 14 but need to get more viewings of him. If we do have 11 guys better, we're doing pretty well!

 

[Trapper]

He just looks like a straight up NHLer.

Put him high on the greasy meter.

You are now officially a poll guru of Leafs board

 

[TorontoTrades]

I have him 9th right behind Leivo

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Percy/Bracco area...Id have an incredibly tough time putting him ahead of Nielsen...so 12th seems about right imo

 

[Moonman]

Niner.

 

[TheOtherSide]

I want a new Hyman

Thats not how it works

 

[Lauro]

Leave him out.

 

[Damisoph]

I got him 11th in front of Nielsen.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

14th behind Percy. I'd say they're neck and neck at this point. Haven't seen enough of Carrick to go any higher.

 

[Byron Bitz]

Iv got him at 17 because i think freddy the Goat is a slightly better prospect.

 

[Warden of the North]

I would slot him at 15th.Also, I think Lindberg is too low - he should be at 11th

 

[Team Cozens]

I put him in at 14 but need to get more viewings of him. If we do have 11 guys better, we're doing pretty well!

With the number of prospects and draft picks the Leafs now have, does Lou think
their is a 40 man roster in the NHL?

 

[thewave]

6th because of age and projection. I would have him 5th given the option and although its really hard to accurately place him so soon so I won't vote yet. I need to see the others for a bit at the NHL level but... Probably our best D prospect.

Keep in mind I generally pick guys near ready for the NHL over new prospect so I ignore projections of CHL aged kids as a factor for rankings.

 

[rdogg]

I got him 11th in front of Nielsen.

I'm with Ramsay Snow on this one

 

[TheGroceryStick]

-23-

 

[IBeL34f]

Based solely on what I saw last night, I'd put him anywhere in that 6-10 range.

He didn't look out of place against NHL competition, has a great shot and some jam, and he's still very young, with a couple solid showings in the AHL already under his belt.

Like I said, that's based entirely on one viewing, but I came away impressed.
