Then Biggs is at worst a 4th liner with 3rd line upside.
If his scoring keeps up all the way to the NHL he could be a 2nd liner.

It was a tie between Biggs and Percy for me but I like Biggs. Forgot about Leivo until after I saw the results so it should be fairly obvious that the next 3 will be those 3 interchangeably, whoever cries about who's over the other can just get a grip.

Choose Biggs simply because of his exposure/success on the international level (4 golds) up to now.

do you people really think it's biggs or percy.. just because they're first rounders lol... don't vote if you don't follow them. Our next best prospect is either Leivo or Granberg hands down

Eh Granberg is pretty overrated. I haven't seen him much, if at all (outside the WC), but I have no problem with people picking Percy ahead of him.
Based on what I've read on Granberg, and seen of Percy, Percy should probably be the better prospect. Leivo and Biggs are debatable, but I don't really see a case for Granberg over Percy.

Leivo is developing pretty well and looks to be scoring at a decent pace, he's a decent choice to be higher on the prospect list than he usually has been.
I think a lot of people are underrating Biggs, Percy and Ashton. This was Biggs first year of OHL hockey and he was adjusting himself to it. Saying that he did pretty well and was almost a ppg while being voted for 3rd hardest shot and best shot blocker in the league. Percy was the Steelheads captain wasn't he? Thought he was being used in every situation there and is steady eddy on defence while picking up 45 points in 68 games. Came over to the Marlies for 3 points in 4 games.
Don't think Ashton is going to find his offensive game but he's still likely to make the NHL as a bottom 6 forward soon imo. He should be up on the list if we're taking the likelihood of making the NHL in any capacity.

So you saw Granberg playing top pairing on the gold medal team at the men's worlds as a 20 y/o. That team hardly gave up any goals but he we just .... ok
Remind me how Biggs did for Team USA on the top line at that tournament?

Leivo has been significantly more productive than Biggs and also has the intangibles. A small but interesting point. Both Leivo and Biggs ended the season with the Marlies. Both dressed for four regular season games. Bigg dressed for one playoff game and Leivo for three. It sounds as if Eakins had his vote on this.

To be fair though. Leivo is a CHL product and use to playing that many games. Last year was the most Biggs has played.

Offered and lost
Percy > Leivo > Granberg > Biggs is how I'll be voting the next few rounds, assuming Biggs doesn't win this.

What? It was a 10 game tournament. Congratulations, it has absolutely no barring on the NHL what so ever. And I wasn't comparing Granberg to Biggs.

Percy way too overrated.
News flash: "not flashy" does not translate into a steady top 4 NHL d-man. He's boring and has a small frame. Not enough skill and "smarts" can't take you that far if you're physically not able to compensate - brutal pick at 25, especially with Boone Jenner and Brandon Saad still on board, and I've been saying that since draft day.
Granberg gets my vote. Kid is a stud.
