In misery of redwings of suckage for a long time
I suggest a group pause here to marvel that there is a legitimate discussion to be had surrounding the 10th best prospect of this franchise.

Went with Alt here.
Cousin is next for me. I think he's getting unfairy overlooked if he doesnt go in the next couple spots. As a past 3rd rounder did people really think he would step in as an AHL rookie and light it up? If he makes an NHL impact it won't be because of his offense, it will be as a role player. If he can continue to work on his two-way game I really think there's a place for him in the NHL for a long time. Unlike someone like Akeson who needs to be in a scoring role, Cousins doesn't need that to make an impact.
Whether it be as 4th liners and #6 defenseman, just the fact that there are 4-5 guys left that have a legit shot at a career in the NHL is impressive.
Manning wasn't re-signed.
Alt here, Cousins next.
I like Cousins better than Akeson, and while I'm not necessarily saying he's a better prospect than NAK, NAK gets the benefit of being fresh and the fan base not having a chance to scrutinize his game and/or there not being time yet for his development to go only so-so
Cousins is suffering a little from that IMO
Manning was tendered an RFA contract. He just hasn't signed it yet. We own his rights.
