Voting for the guy that needs to pan out for us to have a hope in hell of improving.

Lombardi

I didn't realize this was a ranking of how much hope we are attaching to each prospect.

Lombardi

You don't think Mazur can be an impactful player for us?

Not as much as if Lombardi hits.

 

[lilidk]

Voted Mazur, but have no idea why. I need to see all our prospects in less than 2 months in after draft prospect tournament

It's not hope. Potential top line guy tops a middle 6 guy. Boom or bust, baby

 

[Frk It]

Not as much as if Lombardi hits.

I mean, a guy who was a ppg player in college, ppg player at the WJC, and then 6 pts in 6 games in Grand Rapids doesn’t have upside?

I don’t know if Lombardi really even has a higher ceiling and he definitely doesn’t have a higher floor.

 

[Atoadaso]

Mazur, Elmer, Lombardi, Albert and even Buchelnikov are guys I like almost equally. I’m probably most excited to see what energy Mazur can bring to the team tho.

Was your word, not mine.

Anyway, despite Lombardi having more perceived skill, at the junior level, and Mazur having an industrious, Bertuzzi-like reputation, while crushing the game of hockey at every level he plays at, there's nothing that indicates Lombardi has a top-line ceiling while Mazur has a middle-6 ceiling. That's, again.... just hope.

Hope was in relation to the Wings as a whole, not Lombardi.

And Bertuzzi-like? Trade him early before his stock plummets!

So you don't hope Lombardi winds up a top-line guy?

 

[ricky0034]

how's that "sure thing" Sebrango guy people used to vote on over guys with ceilings you could stand up in not so long ago doing by the way? I notice he's not in this poll

not eligible because he's been playing so many NHL games?

 

[norrisnick]

So you don't hope Lombardi winds up a top-line guy?

No, I hope his play on the top line allows the Wings to improve.

 

[RRhoads]

I just vote for who I think will have the best career.

 

[jaster]

No, I hope his play on the top line allows the Wings to improve.

So you're guaranteeing he's a top-line guy now? Bold.

Donovan Sebrango... the proof that people are over-rating Carter Mazur

 

[Henkka]

Who to add?

Think it's time to add a defenceman, because there's only 1 left on poll options.

Anton Johansson.

 

[Reddwit]

Went with Lombardi but it was close with him and Mazur.

 

[AlwaysSunnyInDetroit]

Why is Albert getting crushed? I think he's a shoe in to make the roster this year after Edvinssons surgery.

 

[Ulysses31]

hespect to the list but soderblom has shown enough flashes at the NHL lvl that he could arguably be 4th if not 3rd here

 

[Henkka]

Wallinder feels like a 1st round pick as 32nd overall.
