This would be interesting.

Slepyshev looks promising but need to see how he handles himself in NA..
His stats werent close to Hartikainen in KHL so a little concern there.

Leleggia has the best resume but is in tough to crack into NHL..

Chase i think will get a stint in NHL this season.. He will have the drive this year I am sure.

Voting Khaira.

I think Chase has a career as a bottom 6 player on the PK

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Slepyshev again, add Laurikainen

 

[Paralyzer008]

Out of who's left, you have to go with the high reward/potential players.

Slepyshev is penciled in on my future left side for the Oilers lineup, so for me he's easily the next guy. Great at the WJC, KHL experience already on hand.

 

[Bangers]

Slepyshev. I see him being a bigger, inverted (RH LW as opposed to LH RW) version of Kucherov from TB.

I rate him higher than Bogdan, although the only time I've seen him play is the WJC.

I hope he makes it. Apparently, he's a real jerk and I'm not sure his teammates even like him. On another team he's the kind of guy you hate but you love those guys when they play for you.

I don't know why I'm not going with Sleplev, but I'm very interested into seeing what Kharia turns into.

Moroz should be listed if Khaira is. I think that Mitch will have a big time bounce back season in '15-16.

The teammate who matters likes him... McDavid singled him out as a friend he made at dev camp.

While their point totals were similar last season, Khaira was fairly good in the playoffs and got a lot of praise from the guys watching regular-season AHL games for being very defensively responsible, while Moroz generated worried comments that he was the worst player on the team. I'm really hoping Moroz has a bounce back season (or more that he just continues to develop), but Khaira's definitely ahead of him right now. Currently I'd probably still put guys like Chase ahead of Khaira, but Moroz? Nope. The best thing Moroz might have going for him is his high draft pedigree.

He wasn't saying that Moroz is better than the other players, just that he should be in the mix. He should be on the list so people can consider him. That's all.
