Eetu gonna be a solid 3C, hopefully capable of 15 goals and ~35pts.

 

[violaswallet]

Toughest choice of the night for me: between Priskie and Eetu. I went Eetu because what he is showing in the Liiga right now

 

[Prominence Problem]

As I said, I will unveil my personal "tier 2" ranking as they unfold:

7. (11 overall) - Stillman
5. (9th) - Kolyachonok

 

[BabyBennettov]

Voted Gildon again... Saarela and Borgstrom should be in that tier too...

Add Puutio please.

 

[Dread Clawz]

Saarela, add Bednard.

 

[16Skippy]

Saarela, add Lammikko.

 

[letsgrowcactus]

Voted Noel after much hesitation.
Add Schwindt.

 

[CHGoalie27]

@Cold Cat Gildon should be 4 or 5 imo

 

[letsgrowcactus]

@Cold Cat Gildon should be 4 or 5 imo

This is the situation where I valued him high for so long, I wonder if I'm overvaluing him... pushing me to maybe undervalue him...completely overthinking the whole thing
It'd help if we could just get some games. Feels like it's been years since we saw most of these guys play.

I have him 5 overall for Panthers prospects.

Panthers could be sitting on a number one or two defenseman here. This guy oozeses offensive abiltty. By the end of his college career he seems to be able to handle his own end quite admirably as well.

Yes, I would like to see him play some games, but it's not his fault . I would say he aced his college career. It will sure be interesting to see his development in Charlotte.

I highly doubt he lost his hockey sense, which i think looks like his strong point when I've seen him play, but it does indeed feel like a year since Tampa won the Cup. I hope it doesn't have a negative effect on any of our guys.

Agreed.

Gildon is number 7.

Schwindt added (giving my own vote to him since it was a 4-way tie), please reply more to give a better representation of who should be next, I don't want to add too many at once to avoid the vote from spreading all over the place.
