Not sure why people are so down on Wilson, his first 2 years in college were very strong.

Yeah, I voted Ruopp, but I wouldn't have put Blueger, Uher, or Dea in front of either. People are so obsessed with boom or bust prospects (thinking they will boom).

It seems weird given Rust's relatively modest first two years and Wilson's first two years were more productive than Rust's lasts two.

Last year of his ELC this season but he will still be RFA after. Safe to say he will probably never crack the NHL barring a large amount of injuries.

Did he have that bad of a year? Last year everyone though he was our bet front presence of the future and he was dominant in the echl.

Did you actually watch him play or are you just boxscore watching?

The guy was awesome in the games I saw him in. All over the place. He looked great. and he had 14 points in 16 games in the ECHL. I understand its the ECHL, but he looked to be at minimum AHL ready.

none of which means he should be in our top 20 prospects.
