[Saturated Fats]

Interesting that, of the top-10 this year, 5 are new prospects. Speaks to the depth we're steadily accumulating.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Going DiPietro here. Had a very good draft season and was dominant in the Memorial Cup, winning the Mem cup for his underdog team.

 

[M2Beezy]

Gotta be the Lockster here CLOSELY followed by Briesy

 

[Braeden]

Went with Easy Breezy.

 

[PhilMick]

Going DiPietro here. Had a very good draft season and was dominant in the Memorial Cup, winning the Mem cup for his underdog team.

Third time in a row for me voting DiPietro, he seems pretty legit.

 

[PhilMick]

Gotta be the Lockster here CLOSELY followed by Briesy

 

[BloatedGuppy]

I like MacEwen here for many of the same reasons I liked Gadjovich in the last slot.

 

[alternate]

Interesting that, of the top-10 this year, 5 are new prospects. Speaks to the depth we're steadily accumulating.

Also shows the value of having some 2nd round picks.

 

[MS]

Interesting that, of the top-10 this year, 5 are new prospects. Speaks to the depth we're steadily accumulating.

It should have happened long before this if we'd kept the picks we should have kept and dealt the obvious players we should have dealt (Hamhuis especially).

This is what happens when you suck. We're just 2 years late to the party in terms of getting the benefits of being this crap.

I like MacEwen here for many of the same reasons I liked Gadjovich in the last slot.

Yup. MacEwan again for me.

He's going to end up going 16th and it's going to end up looking silly a year from now.

 

[cc]

I picked DiPietro. He just has to improve on technique but on pure talent, I think he has a lot of upside. Plus, I think mentally, he rises to the challenge which is what you want to see. A competitor who brings his 'A' game to games that matter most

 

[ziploc]

Subban again for me.

This poll shows there is some depth to our prospect cupboard finally, but also shows the relative paucity of our defensive prospect depth. This is mitigated somewhat by the presence of Hutton and Stecher on the big club (and I suppose the possibility that Tryamkin might come back, though I doubt it), and obviously there are fewer D spaces to fill on the roster. However, Dahlin would really round out our prospect depth amazingly.

 

[Luck 6]

There is a huge jump up between Juniors and Pro as we know, many people aren't able to make that jump effectively.

Managed to put together back-to-back 36 point seasons as a defenseman in his first two pro seasons (tallying an impressive 16 goals in the most recent of the two). He had the 2nd highest GPG on the team, he was also the 5th leading scorer on the team despite being a defensemen and several years younger than any of those above him.

I get that he has some defensive deficiencies, but his offense is very impressive.

 

[Superlative Soup]

Interesting that, of the top-10 this year, 5 are new prospects. Speaks to the depth we're steadily accumulating.

Or shiny new toy syndrome?

 

[stampedingviking]

Lockwood yet again.

 

[biturbo19]

I'd go with Lockwood here. With his speed and the type of game he plays, i think he's probably a "safer" prospect to make the jump to Pros effectively, and there's still some good "upside" to him as well.

I can see an argument for a few others as well though.

 

[Nucker101]

Brisebois or Lockwood again, voted Brisebois but I could go either way.

 

[Aqualung]

I like Lockwood here. Mackewan and Dipietro shortly behind. I think Brisebois is too average in all aspects of his game, and lacks that one trait to push him over the top.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Gotta be the Lockster here CLOSELY followed by Briesy

The only guy it "Gotta" be is the one who gets the most votes.

And please stop with the awful forced nicknames you try to give literally every player in the organization.

 

[ginner classic]

DiPietro.

 

[hellstick]

Voted Will Lockwood. Again.

 

[CalgaryNuck]

Brisebois for me purely because his upside is more valuable than lockwoods upside.

Its nice that there's still legitimate prospects left on the board this late! I think between brisebois, lockwood and dipietro we've got some decent B level guys

 

[elitepete]

Yup. MacEwan again for me.

He's going to end up going 16th and it's going to end up looking silly a year from now.

Mackewan is still a mystery to most ppl

 

[settinguptheplay]

Went Subban again based on the strength of his offensive game in a professional league. Followed closely by Lockwood and Brisebois. DiPietro gets some consideration as well but for goalies I have a hard time with till they at least hit the AHL. With a few exceptions. Do not know near enough about MacEwan yet. But the taste that I did get makes me think we might have something there.

 

[Verviticus]

It should have happened long before this if we'd kept the picks we should have kept and dealt the obvious players we should have dealt (Hamhuis especially).

This is what happens when you suck. We're just 2 years late to the party in terms of getting the benefits of being this crap.

He's going to end up going 16th and it's going to end up looking silly a year from now.

having not seen 30 games of his from this year plus from the years past, all i can see is a guy who can legally drink in the states dropkicking children because he's abnormally large compared to adult hockey players. analytically, at least, literally everything points against him

excited to be proven wrong, i guess
