I have a feeling Helgeson is gonna surprise alot of people this year. I could even see him getting a call up.

Bleh, who knows. Just a hunch.

He's going to be good.

 

[billingtons ghost]

He's going to be good.

He might be the first one of the kids called up, because of his style.

Fayne jumped the whole prospect pool, after all..

Now there's a good find! The blurbs on Tedenby and Bergfors are pretty hilarious in retrospect...

Anyways, Gavrus, add Sislo.

I don't really see how Gavrus is getting votes over Helgeson and Kinkaid.

 

[The Great Dame]

I don't really see how Gavrus is getting votes over Helgeson and Kinkaid.

Because Gavrus has the potential (granted, very slim) to become a top 6 forward. Helgeson is seen as a bottom pairing defender at the next level by most and it's hard to get excited about Kinkaid when you have Schneider and Wedgewood.

I think the logic is that it's easier to be excited about the potential of a guy like Gavrus... I dunno just spitballin here.

The description of Bergfors having a great two way game was the best. Bergfors played defense? Really?

Sad part is looking at that and realizing Fayne is the only guy in the top 15 on there to have a full time spot on an NHL roster right now. And he was barely even there being at 14th. Also funny how Henrique was like 18th, and he's probably had the most success. At least he wasn't ranked behind Mark Fraser though!
