When the Avs successfully get a Russian they drafted over here, I’ll change my mind.No love for Kovalenko? Honestly think he's more projectable into a (bottom 6) NHL role than Beaucage due to his awful skating.

Helleson is exactly what the Avs need. Your sizable RHD that is Jack of all trades. EJs got one or max.. two more years in the organization.Probably the concern that he’s never going to sign. I love his game but can only go so high at this point. He’s also going to be in total make it or break it mode when/if he ever comes over. He’ll be 23 at least, he’s not going to the minors. That said I have him over Beaucage. My list is pretty similar except as I said I’m not putting Helleson over Ranta and Foudy.
Ambrosio should be ahead of a few of those guys.Here is my top-16 list:
Byram
Newhook
Barron
Olausson
Behrens
Kaut
Helleson
Foudy
Ambrosio
Ranta
Kovalenko
Bowers
Weiss
Annunen
Beaucage
Zhu
Your vote in this poll #1 is recorded for BarronUmmm. I just scrolled up and he was/is/remains number 3 on my list. Below Byram and Newhook.
so I don’t get the genesis of your question.
I voted? I don’t remember that. May just be fingers scrolling. I wouldn’t even know how to see that or care too.Your vote in this poll #1 is recorded for Barron
Are you not going to vote in the polls then? It’s a personal choice of course but if you have a list you should vote. You can see who has voted for each selection by clicking where it says (2 votes) or whatever.I voted? I don’t remember that. May just be fingers scrolling.

Barron exceeded his draft slot in his D+1 season. He’s a real promising promising player. Really glad we have him in the system. I ranked him 3rd OA.
He’s no where close to Byram. Byram should be a top pair guy in two years.
You might be right and I might agree with you. His size is the only thing that dropped him a bit compare to a few others. I know I voted Behrens fairly high and he is very small as well but I have more confidence in him reaching his potential.Ambrosio should be ahead of a few of those guys.

I don’t normally vote in these polls. But I am vaccinated. Also a personal choice.Are you not going to vote in the polls then? It’s a personal choice of course but if you have a list you should vote. You can see who has voted for each selection by clicking where it says (2 votes) or whatever.
Doesn’t matter when someone has 96% of the votes but when we get to like poll 14 and there’s 20 people left voting it makes a difference.

I love Barron. But Byram is my boy. This isn’t a vote IMO. This is just a fact that Byram is our best prospect.
that’s not debatable.
Kaut being here hurts. The Avs hate that guy and go out of their way to play AHL nobodies over him. Bednar has a huge blind spot in this regard. He’s obsessed with “vets” in his bottom six.
Meh. I don’t think I did that knowingly. Probably just a lack of fine motor skills with my clumsy hands.
Don’t confuse small with short. Behrens is short. But he’s quite thick for a kid that age. We Generate a lot of power from your legs and lower body. I think he’ll be ok. I’d rather he be short and stocky than 3 inches taller but rail thin.You might be right and I might agree with you. His size is the only thing that dropped him a bit compare to a few others.

Can always sign dudes like Helm for that role. 4th line PKers.5 years ago we had maybe 2 guys with NHL potential, now we have 7 or 8 sure NHLers.
But our prospects pool is thin.
I think we lack high energy 3rd/4th liners though, looks like we only draft for skill.
7-8 "sure" NHLers is a bit of a stretch. Beyond Byram and Newhook anything can happen. The absolute best case scenario is 7-8 but there's nothing sure about that.5 years ago we had maybe 2 guys with NHL potential, now we have 7 or 8 sure NHLers.

And what about great 3rd liners better than Jost and Compher ?Can always sign dudes like Helm for that role. 4th line PKers.
More optimistic than others I guess.7-8 "sure" NHLers is a bit of a stretch. Beyond Byram and Newhook anything can happen. The absolute best case scenario is 7-8 but there's nothing sure about that.
If by make the NHL get a game yeahMore optimistic than others I guess.
Byram, Newhook, but to me Barron, Helleson, Ranta, Olausson and Behrens will make the NHL for sure, and there is a good chance some of Foudy, Beaucage, Annunen, Ambrosio will do it too.
TV, you’re too pessimisticIf by make the NHL get a game yeah
But at least she’s back… you were missed in the hiatus @tigervixxxenTV, you’re too pessimistic
