This is where I would have normally voted Jordan Harris, but you people seem to like him so much more than I do.

I pick Norlinder and add Teasdale

And then you want to add Teasdale, which most people have much lower.

Personally, he's #34.

He would have been in a few polls ago if people followed my list, but I have to keep voting for my #12. Rohrer is my next one after that.
Honestly, baring injuries and lack of commitment, I dont really see a situation where Roher doesnt make it at least as a role player.

Hopefully he'll have a standout year this upcoming season.

I'm still hanging on Norlinder's upside, although injuries are getting scary.

It's between Rohrer and Mysak... I will go with Rohrer. But I really like Mysak.

Norlinder... I don't see a career in NHL...

Add Fairbrother.

I think Mysak has the most upside of all these guys. I don’t think Norlinder is coming back.

I have him at 9.. so far him and Dobes have fallen the most compared to my personal rankings.
I love Norlinder's potential, but he's 22 and still hasn't shown a ton in my opinion. Having the potential and talent to do something versus actually doing it is vastly different. I need to see something from him next season.

I think he showed some good qualities in his limited NHL action but his whole year last year was an abomination starting with the MB masterclass in development.

The injuries are piling up, too.. so we will see. I'll be comfortable dropping him a lot more (like Hillis) if he doesn't have a much better year, this year. I just don't drop guys I'm high on when there's a reason why things haven't gone well vs. just showing they can't handle a level.

We are pretty much at the point that you can pick like 10 guys based on personal preference and would not be wrong until the season plays out. This is what happened with Roy, Farrell and Dobes last year compared to this. I do think that a player like RHP or Ylonen get undervalued even if they had good stats, when they are compared to junior players, even though they did it in the AHL and even saw limited NHL time as well. Hard to compare an AHL player to say a USHL kid putting up 110 pts. Not sure how you can account for the difference in leagues when comparing stats, but I'm sure the advanced stat folks must have some model.

Mtl., QC.
Harvey Pinard is the lead pointer of the rocket, he has a chance to play in Mtl this year and he's young.

Why on earth would it be Norlinder before him?

If RHP makes it as a full time NHLer, it'll be as a 4th line winger. The chances of him making it are high, but the chances of him making an impact on the team are quite low.

Guys like Mysak, Roher, Norlinder, Struble and even Tuch all have the potential to make more of an impact, but less of a chance of getting there. Measuring the balance is why you see all these guys getting voted before the other.
