Need help for my hockey pool (propects)

[tooley99]

My team is complete for next year (Websimhockey) but I have a few draft picks left (2 or 3) that I would like to use to draft prospects that could help me in the future. For those who don't know how Websimhockey works, each player is rated in terms of speed, hockey sense, strength, passing, shooting, defense... based on what they do in the NHL. Position is not important. I'm looking for players with: biggest upside/potential and impact with their NHL team. Players that are still available:

Ryan Johansen
Vladimir Tarasenko
Tim Erixon
David Rundblad
Mattias Tedenby
Jacob Markstrom
Brendan Smith
Others are available (Connolly, Granlund, Kuznetsov, Gormley, ...), but those are the ones I thought were the most interesting

If you had to pick only 2, what would be your choice?

[Generational Talent]

It really depends on your needs...
I would choose Rundblad #1 and one of Johansen or Markstrom.

 

[Gorgeous George]

Johansen and Granlund would be my choices.

 

[Leafssss]

You're looking for highest potential?

Then you should EASILY choose Tarasenko + Rundblad AINEC.

Potential franchise forward and amazing PMD (who lacks defensive instincts)

 

[tooley99]

I don't have any specific need right now. I just want to draft the best player available but I would like to draft at least one D (probably Rundblad).

 

[Lehner]

rundblad, markstrom

 

[Kevin Forbes]

How much are the stats weighted towards goaltenders?

If there's a premium on goalies (or if there's a lot of teams in the pool), I'd suggest Markstrom. The kid should be a starting goaltender in the near future.

 

[Iamok]

Johansen and Rundblad. Tarasenko would make it interesting, but until he's 100% coming over, I wouldn't consider him just yet.

 

[Zepphead93]

B Smith will win the Calder in 12/13

Brendan Smith & Tarasenko

Markstrom is falling fast in depth charts. He had knee surgery & "might" be ready for camp... Goalies w/ knee surgeries?? yikes

 

[Leviathan]

Johansen, Granlund, Tarasenko.

 

[tooley99]

Thanks everyone

 

[Manny*]

Definitely Rundblad.

 

[AwesomePanthers]

Tarasenko and Markström. But you should consider Rundblad and Johansen too.

 

[Jabba11]

Yeah, take Tarasenko and you will loser your hockey pool...The guy is staying in Russian for his final year of contract. Won't be playing for the Blues this year.

1. David Runblad
2. Brandon Gormley
3. Mattias Tedenby

 

[Defense_1st]

Rundblad, and Tarasenko.
