Thx for the advice, I recall my prof saying me the same thing in my teens days lol, when I write, I dont wanna lose track of my mains ideas so thats why Im writing those one shot, its especially less easy for me in english since Im far from being bilingual while I have to formulate it properly to make sense... Anyway, I will try to correct it...
As for young players, I only wanted to put in perspective the fact that we cant really know how kids playing in top Euro men leagues or KHL would do in the CHL against kids their own age or younger, its also not evident to speculate how a kid playing in the CHL would do in top men leagues, I think its pure speculation and thats why the WJC is a nice barometer IMO since they all are on the same level in a such competition...
About our top prospects list, I would be curious to know yours post WJC... Feel free to post it when you have the chance...
it's easy to forget that some aren't bilingual or how difficult it can be for those who English isn't their native language as I couldn't do it if I had to post in French.
For sure it's tough to compare Euro's with CHLers, always has been. The WJC's for me are more for entertainment since it's hard to evaluate someone on 5 or 6 games when some of those teams are very weak. Again if you look at Collberg who killed it with 19 pts over 3 WJC's, posters might think he was going to be a stud.
I don't like to rank prospects mid-season, I tend to wait and see how they do over the full year and playoffs.
