Add paul. I know a lot of people haven't been paying attention, but he was a first liner in our ahl team and the team's best player for solid stretches. Last year was a big season for him.

 

[INurHome]

Voted Wolanin, I think (hope) he'll get 60+ gp in the NHL this year, he's got the best opportunity tp prove...

Add: Parker Kelly -- Re:back to back hardest worker in Dev camp

 

[Artanis]

Easily Wolanin, haven't seen shit from anyone else at the NHL level except Balcers/Jaros/Chaplik.

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

JBD but its close between him and Thomson.

Add Crookshank.

 

[Micklebot]

JBD for me. Thomson follows closely, then one of Wolanin or Norris.

 

[stempniaksen]

Thomson again.

Add Daccord (again).

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Daccord

 

[TkachukNorris79]

JBD. Add Crookshank.

 

[Akrapovince]

Bernard Docker for me, think Thomson is close though.

 

[bert]

Add: Parker Kelly -- Re:back to back hardest worker in Dev camp

Agreed on Wolanin he has shown elite ability at the NHL level I have him 3rd personally.

Add Daccord, I find it funny Soggard is in before him.

 

[operasen]

Crookshank

 

[Hale The Villain]

Should be Wolanin. Pretty safe bet to be a good NHL D and I don't know if he has any less upside than JBD or Thomson.

 

[Qward]

Some of you guys suffer from new toy syndrome.

It's an age thing for me honestly. I know development isn't linear, but both Thomson and JBD have more pedigree (being 1st round picks) coupled with the fact that they have done more at their respective ages than Wolanin did by the time he was 18/19. I mean, at that point Wolanin was putting up good but not great seasons in the USHL. Thomson just put up similar numbers in a vastly superior league while JBD made the jump to college hockey a year earlier.

I really hope Thomson/JBD will have shown more than Wolanin has by the time they are 24 given the future of the team is kind of banking on at least one of them being a legitimate top-four option by then.

 

[stempniaksen]

Some of you guys suffer from new toy syndrome.

Maybe cause the new toy is better than the old toy.

 

[Joeyjoejoe]

Some of you guys suffer from new toy syndrome.

New toy looked much better than old toys at development camp. We don't have much to go on but little snippets on these players.

 

[Six Assets]

close between JBD and Lassi but the former is a safer bet right now

 

[JD1]

I get a kick out of guys plugging Wolanin. He is 24 years old and has played 40 NHL games.

If any of

Thomson
Jbd
Norris
For menton

Has only 40 games they'll be considered busts

They all should have more upside than Wolanin

Did Wolanin retire or something?

I agree with some of them having more upside, but Wolanin was drafted as an overager and spent three years in college. Some late round picks take a while.

I didn't vote for Wolanin, but I don't buy the age excuse either. Development isn't linear, and just like you said, later picks usually are project players.

He played really well at the NHL He's not going to be a top line guy, but who's team's 4th+ rated prospect is? If he tightens up his defensive game, and puts up 40 points, that will be a tough thing to match by JBD or Thomson. Not saying they can't or won't, but Wolanin is primed to do it next year. It's the classic safe bet vs upside debate.

If you think Wolanin is prime for 40 points next season I can understand voting for him in this poll. That seems like really high expectations for a player not even guaranteed to be on the opening night roster though. I'd counter and say that if things go perfect for CW next year he might hit 40 points, but that's a far cry from being "primed" to do it.

 

[LudwigVonKarlsson]

Wolanin followed by any of JBD, Thomson and Norris.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Should be Wolanin. Pretty safe bet to be a good NHL D and I don't know if he has any less upside than JBD or Thomson.

Sure I'll throw my hat in the Wolanin ring.. and jump off the very popular Hogberg bandwagon. I like Wolanin. I hope the Sens give him a fair shake. I think he should have made it last year.
