Red Wings best young player voting - #3

[Henkka]

We had this going on january....

...so let's continue it.

Who's the most POTENTIAL young player ? Not a prospect.

Limit for this voting is waiver eligibility.

1. RD - Moritz Seider - 42.4%
2. RW - Filip Zadina - 50.0%

1 vote and propose an add.

What to do with Svechnikov, he was still waiver eligible, but isn't at next season. Should we include him?

[Ghost of Ethan Hunt]

Toss up b/w Hronek & Veleno, went with the more proven commodity thus far. Add Svech?

 

[Shaman464]

Hronek by a mile, my ability to click though is bottom tier.

 

[Winger98]

went with Hronek. Add Svech.

 

[RedWingsfan55]

Really surprised hronek wasn't at #2. Should win big here.

Add svech

 

[Snuggs]

Can make a serious case for Hronek at 1. He might be the best player right now on this list. The other two have more potential and higher ceilings.

Hronek. Easy. I'm not sure he should be on this list being he's basically established now as a starter and not really a prospect.

Conversation will get good with Veleno/Lidstrom/Cholowski.

* We need to talk about Antti Tuomisto as a real prospect too.

 

[Frk It]

So is this based on how good these guys are now, or just who has the most potential?

The way this is worded is a little hard to follow.

 

[raymond23]

I think Hronek should have been #2. So voted for him here.

 

[waltdetroit]

add andre & givani

Word "POTENTIAL" is mentioned on the question.

What so hard to understand in here? Same "potential" is mentioned in the poll question.

It not a translation thing.

It could be my personal attitude of view things - thing.

Because this is "Hockey's Future" message board, it basicly means that we are predicting - hockey's future - in here. Red Wings' future in this case. So every discussion for me is POTENTIAL about everything. How would it be in the future. Not right now. I'm quite sure if I want to make a poll, who is the the current best young player RIGHT NOW, I include it on the question.

But in general, for me, this board and this discussion is always planning ahead. Discussing about the potentials and futures. Especially now in a rebuild. It's like a stock market. Who is gonna go up or down. What's the best future value etc.

Sorry if we think different way. Maybe I'm the extremist in here.

 

[lidstromiscool]

Voted Veleno, only because I didn't realize Hronek was on the list.

 

[Marky9er]

Are we talking about players like they are potential, instead of saying they have possession of the potential? I like it. Dehumanize them and make them machines!

I think Lidstrom would win this pretty easily.

Seriously, I'm not sure Cholo deserves being mentioned there right now. I have really not been enamored with his game, and he doesn't seem to be progressing a whole lot.

Same here.

I think Lidstrom would win this pretty easily.

Good point on both remarks. Lidstrom would easily blow away the whole competition, even at the age of 50 (btw I think he is going to turn 50 this month)

And yes, cholo is completely lost there.

 

[saska sault]

I misvoted, how do I change.... Hronek anyways, I think we all know this.

 

[Lil Bert]

Add Givani Smith

 

[newfy]

Add Givani Smith

If I had to choose between having Hirose or Smith in the organisation I would easily choose Smith

Potential can be negative. Like many predicted Abdelkader contract will be bad, and they were right.

"Planning ahead" -discussion is the one I like most, expecially.

But of course, there is place for "right now" -discussion. That also will be more interesting on days when the team is good again.

 

[Snuggs]

hahahah good catch, but you get my drift right?

 

[MBH]

If this "isn't prospects" then why is the word "potential" in there.
Confusing.

I couldn't find the the threads for #1 and #2. Am really surprised the Seider only had 42.4% of the first place votes and I would have voted for Hronek at #2.
