A.J. Thelen, Wojtek Wolski, Viktor Alexandrov and Ryan Garlock all very underrated by THN and many others in my opinion. I would take Thelen and Wolski fifth and sixth in this draft. Alexandrov and Garlock in the top 20 picks.

Agreed on Wolski, but he's not going to be a stud either.
Very much agree on Garlock. Check our my Draft Preview, I have him at #30.
If I am reading this post correctly, you are mistaken. Thelen finished 6th in the NCAA in points among defensemen and 11th in points per game. He wasn't even 1st in the CCHA in either category.

uofmfan said:Thelen received the Best Offensive Defenseman Award for the CCHA because he finished the CCHA regular season as the top scoring defensemen, he was the first freshman in the CCHA to win that award. In addtion to All American, he was CCHA First Team as well as All Rookie Team. The last freshman to make All American was Dany Heatley at Wisconsin.

Cam Barker's the best defenseman in the draft... atleast for now.Rabid Ranger said:What don't you see in Thelen? I don't see him being much differant than Barker who you clearly like.
