Bob McKenzie 5 mins ago on TSN
Said that there is a clear top 3 now Nugen-Hopkins, Larsson, and Landeskog and when asked by James Duthie if there is much separation for a guy here, he said there isn't and scouts are all over the place favoring all 3 guys.
Said that Landeskog and Nugen-Hopkins are having great playoffs with Kitchiner down 2-1 and Red Deer up 3-0
Said that he has spoken to number of scouts that say Landeskog is "the complete package"
Larsson is a guy who will play on your 2nd PP unit and can do a lot of things, not outstanding offensive skills.
RHN is small and very talented and even though Oilers could use him they would like a bigger strapping center.
Said that Landeskog and Larsson are NHL ready more so even in Landeskog.....meaning Nugen-Hopkins isn't?
He also said that Huberdoue and Strome could jump into this group according to some scouts.
Now I respect Bob McKenzie the most of all TV hockey personalities/gurus, but where does this leave Couturier? The guy everyone had as going possibly 1st overall in September??
