[Jimson Hogarth*]

Tough one between candella and carcone for me.

 

[Nucker101]

Yikes. Getting really bare now.

 

[Alexander Edler]

Yikes. Getting really bare now.

Yeah we need a LW C Prospect to make it look better also maybe a RD like Liljegren For Center i rate Nico Hischier and for Winger Comtois or Yamamoto, any one of them would help alot

 

[Gaunce4gm]

I don't think it's as bad as some...

Lockwood has legitimate Middle/Bottom 6 potential
Candella is tracking like a 2nd rounder and we got him cause of injury. He's got top 4 potential.
Jasek is IMO our biggest boom/bust prospect. He's got unlimited potential if he works out.
Zhukenov still has elite hands and was close to PPG in his first North American season.

These are a lot better prospects than you'd have on most teams by 14-18th best prospect...

 

[NuxFan09]

It's probably Zalewski by this point, but that's based purely on his pro performance and experience so far in the AHL.

Really, it's a crapshoot now. You could make solid arguments for a lot of the guys left. Zalewski, Garteig, Stukel and Candella stand out the most to me though. I'll have to think a bit before I vote.

 

[Braeden]

Easily Lockwood here. Kid can fly. Stukel in the next 2 for me as well. Zalewski is an injury call-up.

 

[FroshaugFan2]

Lockwood then Zalewski. I have both a few spots higher.

Add Sautner.

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Going with Candella here for the top 4 D-man potential over an undersized bottom sixer who hasn't put up much for points yet.

I like the Candella pick, but how is he "tracking" as a 2nd rounder? He hasn't played a game since being drafted..

Went with Lockwood here, though one could pick a handful of these guys here.

 

[Dreamboat]

Voted Candella, could be either him, Lockwood, or Stukel for me.

 

[DadBod]

Candella for me based on potential.
