borro said:One possibility is that Toews is performing outside of tournaments. Points are not a sole factor, but a Top 10 forward should score at a point a game clip unless his league is very low scoring. the thing with frolik is he has 2 goals in like 44 games but does not look good in tournaments. I can't see what justifies Frolik as a top 10 pick. I would take Little in a heartbeat over Frolik at this time. Little has tons of points and seems very much like a Brule. He's doing ok too!
Toews is doing quite well in his first year, not great but solid. Frolik is in a mans league, thus the low stats. I cant actually think of a czech top prospect who lit it up very much that young in the czech league. Out of interest what did Jagr put up as a 17 yr old in the czech league (im guessing scoring was higher in the league as awhole)? The thing that was so Pejorative Slured about the world juniors was everyone said Toews had an average tourney because of his age and defended him (fair point) but when it came to Frolik who is the same age give or take a few months it was the complete opposite.
Little is overated. He is small, does not have great skating, and is nothing like Brule. Brule was predicted to go number 2 overall in his draft year, ahead of JJ. Little isnt even projected to go top 10 in some lists this year.
When comparing points of other prospects to Froliks its always going to factor against Frolik right now. Id take his huge potential (his potential to me is similar to Kessel) other a guy like Little.
