You better edit and put Juuso Riikola in at #26 or you'll miss out on the Calder winner in your article

This afternoon.I must have missed that. When did that happen?
Its not on the Capfriendly transaction wire.
I hope if he plays on the first line that lekhonen is not there...Drouin and Lehtonen gonna break his back if that would ever happen
I wouldn'tI'd put money down on Yamamoto at least being a nominee
I wouldn't
I wouldn't
Meh. Had a huge second half last season. Very strong pre-season. Could be on the wing of MCD or Draisaitl. He’s definitely got a case on paper at least.
No.He’s a salty Vancouver fan.
Wouldn’t be shocked in the least if Yamamoto had more points than Pettersson this year.
Yam will have a better linemate than any other rookie
And I'm a Leafs fan for the record
I'm not salty at all. You continuously overvalue your players. I've watched this kid all preseason and all last year as well. Yes, he lights it up against AHL rosters, but against actual NHL rosters, he has been mediocre at best. If he doesn't have the puck, he's invisible, and when he does have it, 90% of the time he gives it away or is shoved off it. Time for him to show up against actual competition. Then I'll give credit.He’s a salty Vancouver fan.
Wouldn’t be shocked in the least if Yamamoto had more points than Pettersson this year.
Isn't the top line going to be
Nuge - McDavid - Rattie
I think Pettersson will easily have 10+ more points than any other rookie this year.

Good list. I'd add Vesalainen to it.There are so many contenders, serious contenders this season, can't remember the last time when was this many.
- some are bigger, more serious than others, but all contenders (i consider few that got sent to minors as contenders as well,
those players are projected to be called up quite quickly)
(gotta remember, there are always injuries in a long NHL season,even from early on and before the season,
talented young guys are always lurking for that top 6, or a starting G role role if a chance appears)
