man, whereas 2018-19 was a great season for our prospects, 2019-20 was just horrible for many of them
Poehling, Brook, KK are some of the big fallers...
At least Suzuki really impressed and Romanov Caufield maintained the hype. Other than that its been meh for the big prospects
Norlinder was named top prospect in the Allsvenskan, Harris was one of the best U-20 blueliners in the NCAA, Primeau had a very good season despite one bad run of 5 games, name to the AHL All Rookie team. Evans went from a horrible start to a ppg in his 2nd pro season. Hillis had a very strong year after missing so much time to injury, was one of the league leaders in assists as was Fonstad in the dub. Stapley had a nice jump in ppg from .59 to .86, the same ppg as Poehling's last season though they are the same age.
But it was a tough year for injuries with Ikonen, Juulsen, Fairbrother, Teasdale, Struble, Olofsson, Kotka, Norlinder
Poehling and Kotka were really bad though and when you have 2 of your 1st rounders struggle so badly that's highly concerning. Hopefully it was a matter of injuries impacting both although I was never high on Poehling's upside, I always saw him as a very likely NHLer in time.
