you're both kidding me...

Vasyunov was only drafted because of his offensive game. In his HF profile, first line of his Future section reads, "Vasyunov’s offensive talents are simply outstanding and there is no doubting he has the ability to become a bonafide NHL sniper."

I personally like the poster's order for forwards...but on D I have some changes..

Defense
Kris Russell
Cody Franson
Bob Sanguinetti
Alex Goligoski
Keith Yandle

I haven't seen all of them but I'd say from what I've seen:
Kulemin is ahead of Vasyunov and Russel is ahead of Fransson who is ahead of Kindl.

i guess people forget about Vasyunov because he didn't put up a point in the RSL.

But to put him last on the list is absurd. He has great speed, great agility, a great shot, great stickhandling.
Most feel like he is a rawer Afinogenov.

In terms of offensive talent, he should be #1 on this list.
