There was a tie for the #20 player! Time to vote again.

Just as an FYI, the loser of this poll will NOT automatically be the 21st, simply because there was another player just one vote shy of them and the votes as a whole are really close.

Just out of curiosity are you being sarcastic or are these two your favorite? If they're your favorite, is there a particular reason why?

Being serious. Not sure why, but I just like what I've seen of them and how they play.
Edit. For Moverare I guess I just find him intriguing because he's almost the antithesis of a typical Kings pick, a player with all the hockey IQ but questions about whether he'll mature enough physically for the next step. For Hrenak I dont know how to explain it other than "I like what I see" lol

Just to be clear--one of these guys is our NUMBER 20 PROSPECT and they both have a list of accolades long as the strand

I see Hrenak's upside, I really do, but Moverare has the chance to be really special. He's just low probability to fulfill his potential I think, but I agree with Jericho it's kind of refreshing to see a guy who can think the game at that insane level. Gotta go with Moverare.
