[The Zetterberg Era]

Rasmussen again, my add is Turgeon again.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Rasmussen. Could be cholo but ras is more likely to hit his ceiling and I still don't know what cholos ceiling is. Would be bert but ras is a center

 

[Vatican Roulette]

Saarijarvi. Add Petruzzelli

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

I went with Cholo. A number 3 defenseman is more valuable than a third liner, imo.

 

[Martinez]

Cholowski. But him and vili are about dead even

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that Saarijarvi is ahead of Cholowski right now. Cholowski is finding his game, but Saarijarvi already has.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Ras here for sure. Add Petruzzeli.

 

[newfy]

Ras, no brainer

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Michael Rasmussen

Add Dominic Turgeon.

 

[Beltv]

Think you have to go Rasmussen here.

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

That's probably true.

I give a big edge to Vili. He's a point machine.

 

[Marky9er]

Rasmussen. Add Petruzzeli.

Rasmussen will most likely be better than a 3rd liner!

 

[Frk It]

Voted Rasmussen (can we at least give him a cool nickname?)

add Pearson

add Pearson

How about, The RassMan? Ala assman from Seinfeld!

 

[Ezekial]

It's pronounced Raz-muse-sen so Moose could kinda work. Or Musey, like how Gary Busey pronounces his last name.

 

[Martinez]

I give a big edge to Vili. He's a point machine.

Right now I thiink vili is better. But cholowski is a project and still putting it all together

I don't think Cholowski will ever have as good of puck skills or as good of a shot as Saarijarvi. Saarijarvi is really good in both of those areas. They both are really good passers, but I think Cholowski is a better skater and maybe has more potential to be an all situations guy.

 

[Henkka]

I went with Cholo. A number 3 defenseman is more valuable than a third liner, imo.

Not so sure. Rasmussen could become like Ryan Kesler. A "3rd liner", which was so good overall and plays 21minutes nowadays. Battles at net-front, scored 28 points on PP and 30 point at ES, tough to play against.

Niklas Kronwall was a 3rd defenceman in our contender teams.

Would you rather take prime "Kronwall", or prime "Kesler" ?

I think this is probably correct. Like many, I think Saarijarvi is ahead of Cholo at this point, but I also think that Cholo is probably a safer bet to make the NHL. Size is still an issue in projecting Saarijarvi at the NHL level.

Kesler was a borderline first line center for the majority of his career. Rasmussen would be very fortunate to be anything like Kesler.

To compare a 3D to a 1B Center is a misnomer.

 

[Shaman464]

Ras seems to be a Justin Abdlekader/Holmstrom hybrid. He's 5th in my book in an insanely week Red Wings system.

 

[PelagicJoe]

I voted Rasmussen. This poll shows how depressing our prospect pool loops after the first 5 or so.
