Probably the guy who has always been expected to become a top tier scorer in the NHL and is helping to lead his team to a historic start.

Bonus points: Svech plays an interesting power game that is never talked about, I get the impression that some people think he is a glass cannon. He just doesn't have to hit everything that moves to show his power.

 

[Regal]

Tkachuk’s physicality is a bit of a unicorn but Svech is just more talented and a power forward type himself. He’s also cheaper and I worry about Tkachuk slowing down earlier due to his style.

 

[CanadienShark]

Svechnikov and it's not really close.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

I’m biased, but give me Svech.

 

[North Cole]

I'm not writing off Dahlin, but if it keeps going the way it has the last year or so, I'm not sure he goes first in a re-draft. Svech for me here, somewhat easily.

 

[NyQuil]

I think Svechnikov here.

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

Svechnikov regardless of contract. My prediction is that Brady will narrow the gap a bit, but never completely.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Brady is great but this is Svech and other than Tkachuk being named captain there’s not really anything you could point to that would sway you in that direction.

 

[Gurglesons]

Svech and the poll says why.
