At this point I might just start throwing a dart.

Such shiny new toy syndrome. Dewar is a great prospect, still young, just had a solid pro debut and plays a pro style game.

Mason shaw has a chance to be a great playmaker. Has great vision and was a great skater prior to knee injury. If he can still skate he may be a dark horse for us. Hes been forgotten about this past year.

Dewar is an ok prospect. He had a pretty comparable first pro season to Will Bitten's. Actually, looking at it now, it was a much worse rookie season, but they had comparable years last year (Bitten took a bit of a step back. Probably had a smaller role than the year before.) In any case, I think he and Bitten are pretty darned comparable as far as level of prospect. It may be that Dewar ends up the best of the bunch, but we're down to #15. Probably none of these remaining prospects will really pan out. One or two may, but the odds are against most of the remaining guys.

Shaw could have been a really good prospect, but I very seriously question his ability to overcome the lack of development he's had due to injuries. In the past 3 years he's played 94 games. Last year was COVID shortened, but it was also injury shortened already for Shaw.

I voted Hentges not because he's a better player than everyone else, for sure, but because he showed offense last season at the NCAA level, so may still have upside that other guys on the list don't. I don't expect much of any of the guys we're voting for today.

I lump Shaw, Lodnia, and Dewar in the same group. Upside is Mayhew, IMO. Size, strength, and health limits them. Giroux might be similar.
