When you're talking about a smallish forward in the top 5 or top ten, it's because they usually have exceptional talent.
All I'm saying is that sometimes people are really quick to throw out the 'big blueliner is better than small winger' as though it's fact. You have to look at the players individually. If you lose sight of that, it's how you get yourself into trouble. That's how you wind up with 'big center' Kotkaniemi. (And I liked that pick btw... because I felt we needed a big center.) Then again it always comes with the caveat that I don't follow the minors the way others do.

My opinion on prospects isn't worth much. I just do my own reading and try to watch some clips. I'm not going to argue hard for a prospect over another.
I have no idea if Mich will be better than RB. But he may be. I just hope that RB fills the bill we're looking for him to fill. If he does, then it doesn't matter as much.
