I thought Mazur’s WJC, and the fact he was slotted so high for team USA, would carry more weight in these polls than what I’ve seen so far.
That speaks to the depth and quality of the prospect pool. I think most people see Mazur as a realgud bottom 6 energy guy. Using Veleno as a comparable: he centered Canada's top line his last year playing the WJC and was near the top of the team in scoring. It still wasn't enough to have people bump him higher in the prospect poll (except me).I thought Mazur’s WJC, and the fact he was slotted so high for team USA, would carry more weight in these polls than what I’ve seen so far.
I was very high on Mazur before the WJC, so what he did there didn't totally surprise me, but it was impressive nonetheless. I picked Johansson in this one, but it was really between him and Mazur. I considered changing my vote, but seeing the results right now I guess it doesn't matter lol.I thought Mazur’s WJC, and the fact he was slotted so high for team USA, would carry more weight in these polls than what I’ve seen so far.
Ok, I went back and watched Albert Johansson highlights. Him going here is the right call. I needed a refresher on him
Was debating between Lombardi and Hanas for the add, but I'll second yours.Johansson
I'd add Cross Hanas.
I feel like Veleno was a top 6 guy his whole life and has had a hard time embracing being a bottom 6 guy. I don't think Mazur will have that issue, I think he is a lot more versatile.That speaks to the depth and quality of the prospect pool. I think most people see Mazur as a realgud bottom 6 energy guy.

Mazur is my favorite prospect with a bullet, but I feel guys like AlJo and Wallinder have potential to be more impactful.
