Lemieux, regardless of whether he a locker room problem or not he's the most talented player remaining.
You ( correctly imo ) list Lemieux in your top ten though , and not here now ?
Lots of prospects , lots of really good ones , make for lots of choices or options .
But as I said at that time, I don't believe Chairot should be considered a prospect. IMO, as I stated before once you are on a 1-way contract at some point after you ELC you are a NHLer not a prospect. I've been swayed since then to just go along with the HF rules on prospects even if I disagree with them.
Amazing that we have a young guy (Copp) who will likely be starting in the NHL this year, and he's not even in our top 10 prospects.
What are we going to do with all these guys in the next few years? Even if only half of our top 10 prospects pan out, that's a lot of players! Add in a couple lower ones that will probably surprise and make it as well.
Copp v Kostalek v Lemieux will be an interesting fight for #11.
I voted Copp just before Lipon.......... Lipon has always been under- rated as well. I could see Lipon getting some good ice time on the big club this year. That is through injury call up and due to Chevy signing plugs like Hellischuck.
As for the Glover lover syndrome going on ............ shiny new toy voting....... not saying he is not good or not a good prospect....I hope he turns into a mainstay on the Jets d-fence for 10 years......just saying we should see how he plays his first year against men in NCAA before anointing him in the top 10 prospects of the Jets. Most (not all) people voting for him have probably never seen him play a real game (on T.V, computer tream or live). I think these people are slightly influenced from seeing his name in the first post of every thread posting of this poll..........[mod] Any one posting they select Glover please add a one liner if you ever seen him play....and if not why you voted for him.
Why is Kosmachuk being completely overlooked?
I have him above all three, comfortably ahead in the case of Lemieux.
above is my quote from last years # 9 of our HF boards poll..... Glover was pushed hard from the 4 th pick on..... of last years poll .....always being mentioned in the first 5 post.......(Holden).
Just a reminder to vote for prospects from their accomplishments against men competition not boys and if a prospect shows good in their draft + 1 then they are worthy of our vote.... but not B4. this of course allows for players drafted in the top 50 of the draft as they have shown early excelence
I think I'm going to make it my duty to pimp Kossy the same way that Copp and Lemieux have been around here lately. Dude is being seriously, seriously overlooked and underrated.
I just mentioned those three as they are tight in the rankings I see people giving and also in the votes above.
Personally I'm fine put Kosmachuk in discussion with those guys.
Kosmachuk has at least proven some worth in pro. For all we know, although I wouldn't put any money on it, the others could fail or stumble at the next level.
Because one player that I liked didn't have a great draft + 1 season we are not allowed to vote for anyone you don't like?
Glover is going to turn some heads this year. He'll bounce back. I find it pretty funny people are going nuts for Poolman or Franklin when they've proven even less. The were both depth players (Poolman only playing more games than Glover since they moved him to forward) at 20, whereas Glover was 18.
I am Laughing ....... its not a player you liked....... its a player you pushed hard and you highly pushed in the top 20 prospect list..... always in the first 5 post of the new thread after the previous winner of the top prospect. It almost became (it did) annoying your persistence that this kid was a steal of a century and you could not believe that he is falling as far as he did. In other threads I argued that Copp should be higher than Glover and you diss_agreed
.
I stated that your constant posting for his next selection in the first post of every new thread in the top 20 prospects was influencing the less informed voters in Hf boards [mod]. 1 year later I think it proves my statements that your posting bullying ....... or better yet .....your posting influenced other posters to vote for Glover.
I Still like Glover and I hope he rebounds this year. If he does he will not go down as a another Sutter.
oh yeah I bullied people into voting in a poll nobody really cares about. Ok sure. LOL what a joke.
