Durzi really should not have been in the top 5. Korshkov and Bracco both make more sense there.

wasn't Durzi's NHLe really high relative to his draft class? yeah he was an overage player, but still. That offensive upside is pretty nice19yr old OHL Scoring (regular season and playoffs)

His coach called his playmaking 'elite'. When promoted above the Marlies 4th line, he was PPG, and even so, produced better numbers overall at 21 than, say, Tyler Bozak at 23, who wasnt' stuck on the 4th line when a Marlie. No one produces when stuck on a 4th line, Not Bracco, not Brooks, who likewise produced when promoted. Also, neither Nylander or Marner produced much when they were sent to Babcok's 4th line doghouse.

Sure. As I said, he's going to get a bigger role next year, so things could change quickly for him.
But you don't get extra credit for things you haven't done. Brooks would have done a lot better if he played with Johnsson and Grundstrom all year, but he we don't evaluate him as if he did.
Inquiry coming from genuine ignorance; what's the fascination with Korshcov? I've seen the WJ highlights, and I see the size, but he's done nothing since to justify taking him where he was taken, especially as an overager. Rosen has grown since he came here, after developing really well in Sweden. He's trending up. Korshcov seems stagnant to me.
By all means, tell me why I'm wrong. I'd love to be excited for a big skilled winger.

the continued fascination with Bracco is so weird to me.
a one diminsional skill player who doesn't score.
What? Korshkov should be before Bracco & Durzi Imo. All solid prospects but I think Korsh could probably step into the NHL.
It had no age regression, and when age regression is applied at the junior level to junior numbers it makes a significant difference.wasn't Durzi's NHLe really high relative to his draft class? yeah he was an overage player, but still. That offensive upside is pretty nice

It's a community vote. Whether you agree with it or not is pointless because the majority of people disagree.
I think it's easy to see why some really like Durzi over Korshkov and Bracco.
Then I guess it is a comment about how the community is misinformed about Durzi's upside (in comparison to Bracco and Korshkov anyways).
Korshkov hasn't really improved that much. Bracco had a bit of an up and down season. Both have upside but Durzi has the skillset to be just as valuable and with more upside. To be honest, #5 to #8 likely could interchange by mid-next season.
It's not like there's a huge difference between them. They all have middle line/pairing upside.
Engvall for that between the legs goal from the prospect camp should put him at #1
He wasn't overage. Next year would be if he went back.
Korsh's continuing reluctance to come across the Atlantic depresses his value, however.
