OT: 2024 HF Hawks Prospect Vote #1

[TheFridge]

Unless Reichel has a disastrous camp, he won’t be starting the year in the AHL.

Korchinski is very likely to be in the AHL. They’re going to course-correct that mistake.

I have no problem with both guys being on this list. Neither has established themselves as NHL players and they’re both 22 or younger.

 

[TheFridge]

Literally the only logic that need be applied to this discussion about eligibility is:

1. Are the players in question bonafide NHLers? Yes or no.
2. Are they young enough to have room for improvement? Yes or no.

I think a fair age cutoff is 23 prior to the season starting.

 

[Pertti]

I think that cut of should be are they allowed in Calder voting.

No need to make new since Lev is winning.

I think that cut of should be are they allowed in Calder voting.

No need to make new since Lev is winning.

Agreed, Lev already ran away with Number 1, just leave Korchinski, Reichel, Kaiser and Phillips off going forward.

I agree, Calder eligibility makes too much sense to not be the guidelines to follow

 

[Dr Salt]

Just rename this to best u23 players and slap Bedard and Vlasic on as the 1-2.

 

[TheFridge]

I think that cut of should be are they allowed in Calder voting.

No need to make new since Lev is winning.

So Vlasic shouldn’t have been considered a prospect last year, nor should Reichel have been? Despite the fact that both hadn’t shown they were NHLers heading into last offseason?

 

[Kevin Musto]

Bedard and Vlasic are the only ones that graduated from prospects to full time NHLers.

Everyone else is still eligible.

Nazar I think has a higher ceiling than lev.

Fight me.

It won't be me because I voted Nazar. I like Lev and I believe in his upside but I agree that Nazar upside is higher.

 

[Section88]

Voted Nazar. Definitely didnt think it would be this lopsided for Levshunov. Personally don't consider Korchinski a prospect after playing a full season in the NHL.

 

[Muffinalt]

Also think KK and Reichel should be off.

Nazar for me. I'm still not too high on Levshunov.

 

[Teemu]

Speaking from experience, go with Calder eligibility. Only thing everyone will agree to.
