much more excited about Fischer than Jiricek. instincts can be wrong but I have had an instinct about Fischer that he can grow into being one of those ~5 very strong versatile minutes capable defenders you need on an eventual Cup run. like Gunnarsson-type importance to the Blues 2019 D corps
I'm high on Fischer...i think Jiricek, if he can stay healthy and stabilize himself, still has the higher upside but I see 3/4 upside with him if he hits. A bit like Broberg actually when he fully fills out. Less offensive but even more physical, great skater, very good shot, etc. He's about 6'4 now and dad is 6'5. Look forward to seeing what he can do when he fills out his frame to 210-215lbs as he's only 180lbs right now.
