I wonder where Friedman falls to. Do most consider him a lesser D prospect at this point than Ginning or Hogberg? I think Mark still has a floor to be a 6/7 dman at the NHL level and a ceiling to be a 2nd pairing guy in the right situation. Though I doubt that right situation is in Philadelphia.
I don't want to put any labels on his upside or projection quite yet. But he has tools, he skates well, and is a bit of a hitter. I thought Friedman showed a lot of improvement, looked confident, and really came on toward the end of the season. Also, he's a righty. Which is a big plus in his favor.
