Prospect Info: HF Bruins Top 25 Prospects List

[Ratty]

Interesting last year at this time Bjork was considered our 2nd best prospect behind McCvoy, yet one injury later most on here don't even think he make the team any longer.

Don't know where that opinion comes from. I see most contributors here putting Bjork right in the middle of the competition for a top 9 wing job.

i think he's on an AHL contract to start so he's not bruins property yet.

You are right!

However he is getting closer to Boston by the day and he surely will not decline a contract with the Bruins now that he's got the foot in the door.

If he signs with the Bruins, he'll be considered. Until then, he's no different than Connor Clifton from last season; AHL contract.

Still, you've gotta love the defection!!

DELETED FOR MULTIPLE

I do! I think it's awesome that he ditched the Habs and signed with the P-Bruins. Hoping he impresses and earns a contract with the big club as well.

If he comes into main camp the way he came into dev camp, he’s going to make a few guys uncomfortable which is exactly what you want to see.

Bold prediction, he makes the as the opening night roster.

He makes the opening night roster where? In Providence? That would take a lot to happen

As an AHL player with no affiliation to the Bruins, I don't know if he will even be in Bruins camp? Although maybe he will get an invite to the rookie game

We were way off with Gryz

I'm almost positive I heard him say he's be in Boston's camp come September. He'd probably have to sign a PTO.

Stranger things have happened but based on what I saw at dev camp, he's definitely a dark horse IMO.

Gabrielle #13

Gryz #20

Zboril ahead of Vaak and Lauzon.

i think we did a fabulous job... I collected the hockey news future watch for around 30 years and their top 50 rankings... trust me, we are very good compared to most of what they had to say

I do hope one lesson can be learnt here by some of us 'im an experts'

a lot of s%^& will happen between the time guys get drafted and a few years later when you get judged for how you evaluated the kid. we had the benefit of ranking kids after their draft class. we had seem some development of maturity and strength and confidence and coaching. and we still are high on some guys that look like they got no future while completely 'missing' on other guys that now look like top 4 dmen

give the scouts a break... give the drafting gms a break.... EVERYONE will sometimes get it wrong {and by sometimes I mean like more often than they get it right}

at the end of the day though... doing these rankings is supposed to be about having some fun. I think we all had fun. I hope we do it again soon
