Tie between Cates, Kalynuk, Lycksell and Sushko for me. Picked Cates because he has the most hype right now.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Went with Kalynuk again.

 

[flyersfan187]

Picked Sushko this round. Then Cates.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I’ll go Sushko, but it’s reached a point where many of the guys left are in the same tier as prospects, IMO. Former mid-round picks with a shot to make the NHL as depth players. Hard to really rank one over the other.

 

[dingbathero]

C.A.T.E.S.

 

[macleish1974]

Cannot wait until Wyatte Wylie makes the team. Can you imagine Coatsy trying to pronounce that name?
That is assuming that Coatsy will still be alive if that happens,,,,,,man....he looked bad last year.

I went with Noah Cates.

Question: movie trivia.....what was the name of the movie with a character whose name was Cates? Was that " To Kill a Mockingbird"? "Cates I am going to kill you" or something to that effect.

 

[macleish1974]

Nope. "Inherit the Wind" I think his name was Noah Cates in the movie. Wallace Beery, Jr.

 

[Stizzle]

Kalynuk. 5th times the charm?

I've participated in every poll. We're on #18 and I've only voted for 6 players.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’ve voted for two players (Strome & Kalynuk) in the last 7 polls.

 

[Magua]

Kalynuk. 5th times the charm?

I've participated in every poll. We're on #18 and I've only voted for 6 players.

Hipster.

(I've only voted like 4 times period).

 

[Stizzle]

Hipster.

(I've only voted like 4 times period).

You are cooler than me. Too cool to even bother voting.

 

[Magua]

You are cooler than me. Too cool to even bother voting.

Man, I'm just like why? Know what I mean, man? *puff* The Hive is telling me who to vote for, telling me my vote doesn't matter if I do vote. So, I'm just like, fine, I won't be part of your machine. Civil disobedience and sh*t, man, know what I'm sayin'? Turn on, tune in, drop out of this vote. *puff* Yeah.

 

[wasup]

Saw Cates live 3 times this year was good 2 of the 3 , he looked good at summer showcase as well . So went Cates no civil disobedience here .

 

[Rebels57]

Kalynuk again.

 

[sa cyred]

Cates. Solid Summer games. Chance to be on WJC squad. Nice

 

[FlyTimmo]

Kalynuk, but Cates is aight

then maybe Sushko and St.Provorov

 

[Stizzle]

Man, I'm just like why? Know what I mean, man? *puff* The Hive is telling me who to vote for, telling me my vote doesn't matter if I do vote. So, I'm just like, fine, I won't be part of your machine. Civil disobedience and sh*t, man, know what I'm sayin'? Turn on, tune in, drop out of this vote. *puff* Yeah.

 

[David St Hubbins]

Sushko. And I’m gonna keep voting for him until he wins.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

This voting is not cool, Hive. Not cool at all.

 

[pit]

This voting is not cool, Hive. Not cool at all.

Don't worry, I predict this will right itself when Bunny is selected as double #1.

That's right, I am campaigning for Bunny at 2-1, which is 2 #1's, or twice as good as our highest ranked prospect.

Bring it home Captain Bunny!

 

[tymed]

Just to pump Sushko's tires for a bit for fun. He got his bigger role this past year and doubled his draft year total. 31 goals and 60 points in 60gp. He's already proven himself on the world stage with 2g/6a in 6gp last year in the WJC, and posted an assist in 6 gp in the WC tournament, in what I assume was a limited role as a 19 year old. I don't think Belarus gets to return to the WJC this year.

I'm sure most of you have seen this highlight collection from the Philadelphia Flyers Highlights YT channel.... but for those who haven't--go there and enjoy. I didn't manage to score any kind of reliable streams for prospect leagues this past year so these compilations are quite invaluable to me. The maker did a really good job.

For guys still left on the poll list they have vids for Sushko, Twarynski, Bunnaman, and Laberge.

 

[Rebels57]

Anyone else feel like Laberge should still be in our Top 20?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Anyone else feel like Laberge should still be in our Top 20?

He wouldn’t be in mine. I’d still have guys over him left on the board. I don’t think he’s a future NHLer & frankly it wouldn’t suprise me if he gets buried in the minor leagues pretty quickly here.

 

[Stizzle]

Anyone else feel like Laberge should still be in our Top 20?

I don't see how. Names on my personal 15 through 20 list include guys like NAK, Sushko, Cates, and Ginning. Pretty good players. It's hard to crack our top 20. Laberge isn't nearly the prospect those guys are. For me, he's not in the conversation.
