[Frk It]

I like Frk, Sambrook, and Pearson still. Guess I'd go for Frk.

Read recently that Vahatalo is 3rd line center for TPS, not a bad role for him.

Add Adam Marsh

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Frk over De Haas for me in his round.

 

[Wood Stick]

Frk over De Haas for me in his round.

This too. Not counting Nosek as I would have voted for him earlier if I were.

Marty Frk as he has a chance to play in the NHL. I have JDH next. Each year I see him at the prospects camp I just love his game.

 

[ChadS]

Chase Pearson, I also like De Haas. Add F. Larsson.

Read recently that Vahatalo is 3rd line center for TPS, not a bad role for him.

He's played mostly on the wing so far this pre-season. His playmaking skills aren't really so great at the Liiga level, so it makes sense to rather have him on the wing. Last season he scored a bunch of goals by getting the puck in full speed and driving the net from the left wing. He definitely has some power forward potential with that 6'5 frame but needs to put on more size and play more of a nasty, physical game. In junior he was more of a skill player and still looks like that sometimes, but since joining the men's team has clearly developed the physical side. A 6'5 guy who skates well, plays physical and has some skill with the puck would be a big asset for any Liiga team, so lets hope he continues to develop this year.

 

[Vatican Roulette]

Sambrook. Add McKee

 

[Tatar Shots]

I still believe in Nastasiuk. If he can take one more step in his acceleration I think he can be a quality bottom 6 forward for us.

 

[KJoe88]

Still think Nastasiuk can be a beauty bottom sixer.
