Best under 25 team

[Jason MacIsaac]

Which organization could form the best under 25 team. This can be unsigned prospects, unsigned FA or just players on your farm team. I will give it a shot for the Devils.


Pihlman-Gomez-Suglobov
Tallackson-Parise-Vrana
Foster-Khomutov-Laine
Ryznar-Voros-Pikkarainen

Martin-DeMarchi
Hale-Kadeikin

Some Ranger fans will have different combos or might include the names of Liffiton, Guenin, Kozak, Roche, Farledeau (I doubt it though), or Potter

Toronto
Forwards:
Steen--Antropov--Ponikarovski
Stajan--Wellwood-- Saget

Williams -- Barrett -- Earl
(Volkov)
Defence:
Colaiacovo -- Harrison
Bell -- White
Doherty -- Kronwall
D'Amour
Goalies:
Telquist
Ford
Centomo

not bad for a team with little to no faith in their prospect... a couple sleepers in their could turn out as awesome players... Bell... Earl... Mitchell... Wellwood.. Doherty

If your lines are in order, I think your wrong... McClement is much better than Bolduc, Alexandrov and Semin

Blues aren't that deep ... there in the same boat as my maple leafs.

I'd agree that McClement is a better overall player than Bolduc, but Bolduc is above McClement because he's a more offensive player.

Alexandrov and Semin are wingers and Alexandrov is definately more skilled than McClement.

As for the Blues' depth... they're actually quite deep but most of their forwards are still young.

Yeah .. I wasn't attacking you by the way... I know they are wingers... but McClement can put up points if given the opportunity... he's got a great shot and good hands and instincts... what he needs is a coach to tell him to let off his offensive game...
Iam a very big fan of his..... He was always among the league leaders in PPG in his final three seasons in the OHL... he can snipe if given the opportunity.... Bolduc may be one dimentional... but I think McClement is a better prospect and a better hockey player than Bolduc....

Alexandrov, come on... he's got sick hands... BUT thats about it... ... from what ive HEARD he is terrible with his decisions... but if he plays the right way he could end up being a high scoring winger... -

how would you rate the blues prospects.. top 5?

[kimzey59]

St Louis
Peter Sejna - Carl Soderberg - Alexei Shkotov
K. Zakharov - Alexandre Bolduc - Viktor Alexandrov
Demitri Semin - Jay McClement - David Backes
DJ King - Troy Riddle - Colin Hemingway

Barrett Jackman - Christian Backman
Matt Walker - Jame Pollock
Trevor Byrne - Aaron MacKenzie

Marek Schwarz
Jason Bacashihua

Few things:
1) Why isn't Rycroft on there instead of King or Hemmingway?
2) Where are Jonsson, Fitzgerald and Polak? I'd even put Stuart on there above MacKenzie and Pollock.
3) Where is Stempniak? He is better than Semin and plays both wings.
4) Riddle over Troliga? I'd have to question that call.

My suggestions:
Sejna Soderberg Shkotov
Zakharov Bolduc Alexandrov
Stempniak McClement Backes
Rycroft Troliga Hemmingway
Jackman Backman
Byrne Jonsson
Polak Fitzgerald
Schwarz
Bacashihua

Top 5:
1) Schwarz
2) Sejna
3) Shkotov
4) Soderberg
5) Zakharov

I think that's in line with pretty much any team in the league, personally

[degroat*]

Blues TOP 5:
1) Scwartz
2) Bacaushua
3) Soderberg
4) McClement
5) Alexandrov

1 Sejna
2 Schwarz
3 Bacashihua
4 McClement
5 Zakharov

Few things:
1) Why isn't Rycroft on there instead of King or Hemmingway?
2) Where are Jonsson, Fitzgerald and Polak? I'd even put Stuart on there above MacKenzie and Pollock.
3) Where is Stempniak? He is better than Semin and plays both wings.
4) Riddle over Troliga? I'd have to question that call.

1. Rycroft is 26
2. Pollock has played in the NHL and looked decent doing so. Jonsson, Fitz, and Polak have not. MacKenzie is more developed than any of those three also. Stuart you could put over MacKenzie though.
3. I'm happy with either there
4. Riddle is easly over Troliga with the season Troliga just had. Black you could make an argument for.

 

[degroat*]

Alexandrov, come on... he's got sick hands... BUT thats about it... ... from what ive HEARD he is terrible with his decisions... but if he plays the right way he could end up being a high scoring winger...

McKeen's doesn't seem to agree with you:

...great vision makes him stand out from the rest .. reads the play in the offensive end especially well .. oftentimes unassuming; deceptive and will explode when you least expect it...
