Guess you are smarter than everyone who voted.

Hopefully NS will be bumped up soon to where people can actually start voting for him.

Smarter or just not an uninformed homer? Idk.

I wouldnt even vote for Suzuki anyway.

Good to see Marody noticed, his production is better per game but he’s also much older.

Both of them lack elite skating and that’s a concern. However they both have elite hockey IQ and played top line minutes in the AHL. They have really good chemistry.

You’re a big prospects guy, what are your thoughts on the following:
1. Only Benson up, and in the top 6 with Nuges line;
2. Benson and Marody up, with Benson on 2 LW and Marody on 3 C or 3 RW; or
3. Benson and Marody up with him and Benson on the 3rd line together.

I’m interested in learned hockey guys opinions because I legit don’t know what’s best. Benson is a sure fire NHLer now, that I am confident in. His hockey IQ and decision making are NHL ready.

My guess, it would be #2 or #3. Marody looks like a center, plays well in tight spaces...could see him sticking at 3C if Drais is kept at wing and RNH at 2C.

I like Marody at C as well.

I’m worried a bit about putting him in a 3C role right away though.

Maybe keep him at 1C in Bakersfield until he’s “overripe” (i.e. way over 1.2 PPG) without Benson

Why is Heponiemi on this list and more importantly, why are Sandin and Frost leading the votes

Frost should have went at 12-15 guy. Easily a better prospect than Caufield

I don't agree with those comments.

the thing about Caufield his his size doesnt hurt him too much, they say (not me) he could be a 40 goal scorer in the NHL. His shot is that good. Not necessarily a great playmaker (yet), though.
