2014 NHL Redraft

I don’t think you understand what I’m saying...

No I understand it perfectly. But I'm sure unless you have someone ranked in your top ten for a draft (not an hm) then you don't see them as a top ten talent in that draft.

HM means honorable mention, yes?

He said maybe Kap could move into a top 10 spot in a re draft, that does mean he sees him as a top 10 talent, yes?

Here is your original statement: 'Kap has done nothing to suggest being top 10 in a re draft".

There is a BIG difference between 'I think could work their way into the top 10 in the future' and your subsequent statement 'Kap has done nothing to suggest being top 10 in a re-draft.

Kap has done nothing to suggest being top 10 in a re draft

Didn't say he had, I said those were players that I saw potential in moving up towards the top 10 in a redraft in the future. My post was also from 9 months ago and a lot has changed since then in terms of such young players. For instance at this point I think there's about 8 clear cut guys in the top 10, and then after that it becomes a bit of a crap shoot because guys like Reinhart and Bennett have struggled, Fabbri's injuries, and a few other guys emerging slowly. I also noticed I missed Brayden Point in my original post.

Here's my top 8 atm:

1) Draisaitl
2) Pastrnak
3) Ehlers
4) Nylander
5) Point (want to see him keep this up over the full season to climb into the top 3)
6) Larkin
7) Ekblad
8) Arvidsson (he drops for me because he's 3 years older than the rest)

After that you could make an argument for a lot of guys like Bennett, Reinhart, Schmaltz, Fiala, etc. I would agree Kapanen doesn't belong near the top 10 atm.
