Curious what your thoughts are on Bystedt? I know he had a great WJC and is having a good year in SHL but seems like he jumped a lot. Especially with guys like Savoie and Kulich below him.

Great work though! Better than I could do!

Bystedt was a guy I thought was undervalued last year. I picked him up in a couple of fantasy leagues. When I watched his WJC, he seemed to have more offensive creativity than Kulich, and Savoie is starting to concern me about even getting to the NHL let alone being a solid player in the NHL. Not making Canada's team and I heard rumblings last year that he wasn't stirring the drink like Zach Benson in Winnipeg to the point he wasn't on the number one PP. Like I said, still lots of runway but this is where I see them at this snapshot in time.

Jiříček: 2-3
Kulich: top-15
Šapovaliv: first round

 

[Kent Nilsson]

Lekkerimaki should be out

 

[Juxtaposer]

How is Jiricek behind Nemec and Wright? So far, Jiricek is looking like maybe he should have been 1st overall.

I thought he was basically a clone of Noah Dobson in how he played

I could see it. Wright if he wouldn't have played in Seattle would be at 2 pts per game plus in the OHL which would mean he probably wouldn't automatically move down. I don't have enough info on Nemec being poor this season to justify him moving down. They are certainly different players. Based on his season I certainly could see Jiricek in the top 3.

Jimmy Snuggerud has been one of the best college players and was the most effective American forward, yet is still behind Gauthier?

 

[Lavar Ball]

Jimmy Snuggerud has been one of the best college players and was the most effective American forward, yet is still behind Gauthier?

Cutter has also been one of the best players in NCAA. I think most would still take him over Snuggerud at this point
