Mark, thank you as always for your work.

Couple questions for you?

1) What do you think of the Gurianov pick?

2) On your top-10 prospects list:

- Why is Campbell so high? The consensus right now seems to be that he's on his last chance this year to prove himself.

- Why is Nemeth so low? He's not ever gonna be a 2-way defensmen, but he could be one of the best shut-downs in the league IMO.

I'd assume Oleksiak and Campbell are still high because of their top end ceilings/potential.
