Well, pleasant surprises for me were...
Ryan Getzlaf, I underestimated him, he's very good, a versatile forward and IMO, he's alot, alot better than most give him credit for...
Shea "the destroyer" Weber (friend of mine keeps calling him that)
Rostisalv Olesz- thought he was overrated, boy was I wrong
Andrei Kostitsyn- just cause of what he did vs. the US
Petteri Nokelainen- I think he was drafted by the Isles, could be a sleeper
Carl Soderberg- a steal at where he was drafted by the Blues
Grigori Shafigulin- looks like a pro player, I think he'll have alot more success once he comes over to NA, if he's not already here, not sure...
Kolausau- from Belarus, very physical, good pick by the Wings
Stefan Ruzicka- I had no idea Philly fans, my apologies, good player...
Drew Stafford- one of the better US players, love the way he goes up and down his wing and crashes the net
