I voted Jared Mccann
I don't think most Nuck fans know what we have in this player
He was a steal and will be a player for the Nucks in a few years
I don't really have a problem with you putting him fourth, or even your criticism of his style, but I take issue with the last part. There is no such thing as "someone like Chara". There is Chara. Period. There has never been before, and will never be again, someone like Chara. And Chara will be gone by the time Virtanen is a player in this league.4: Jake Virtanen: He's talented and produced better than McCann but maybe i haven't seen enough of him but from what i have seen he seems to have one move which is speed down the wing and cut in using his size which will work great in junior, im just not sure how it will translate vs. someone like chara

No kidding. The argument he was using is flawed. If a guy like Virtanen or Ritchie will have a tough time adjusting to the size of NHL defenders, it must hold that a smaller player like Ehlers will as well.I don't really have a problem with you putting him fourth, or even your criticism of his style, but I take issue with the last part.

I don't think either theory holds. Every player is different. There are a number of factors that play when talking about how a prospect translates to the NHL.
