Yikes. I may well have voted for him earlier.

 

[Skobel24]

Yikes. I may well have voted for him earlier.

Oddly enough, he was next on my list.

 

[1989]

Voted Kulak.

 

[Yung Rotini]

I'm voting Granlund. Has tremendous upside but unlikely to reach it.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Granlund

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Agostino for me.

 

[DCDM]

Hanowski.

 

[TylerSVT*]

Granlund will win this.

 

[tyflames]

It was pretty much a tie between Granlund and Agostino for me. Went with Granlund as he has a higher ceiling.

Brossoit has really fallen off? I remember him being higher last year no?
Is it because of the Emergence of Gilles or his struggle at the beginning of last season.

we added a lot of prospects plus gillies breaking out makes him seem less important.

My boy Arnold!

I think Gillies is better, played great in a better league.
It's just that our pool has gotten deep enough that some players that were high 1-2 years ago (Nemisz was #3 two years ago) are going to fall down (y'know, except for Baertschi)

The bolded.

Brossoit is getting under-rated here I think.

 

[Noori]

Brossoit needs to have a strong showing in pro and show he wasn't just a product of the excellent team in front of him. He needs to shine in the AHL to show he's not another Keetley or Lalande.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Granlund again. Then I'm super torn between Arnold and Agostino.

 

[Flamester]

cundari forsure,

 

[Daimon]

Why's that?

Having a strong team in front of him makes him a lesser prospect? Sounds like an excuse for not having watched him to me.

We've had a long line of goaltending busts. I'd just like to see how he performs in pro. Brossoit also had a backup who had absolutely stellar numbers, far better than his own. Jarry didn't face the best teams like Brossoit did but that's still a huge discrepancy in their GAA (1.61 vs 2.25) and save percentage (0.936 vs 0.917).

I'm curious too. This line has been recited often here since he was drafted, for no apparent reason.

Granlund has a good chance at being a good second or third line scoring player.

IMO he's one of those "top 6 or bust" types. The right skillset for top 6 duty but needs to improve skating and size because he'd be too skilled for a bottom six role.

 

[Sventastic47]

Granlund

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Granlund. Then I go crazy voting for Arnold.

Also please add Ortio as well.
