Dermott with Erie, Bracco with Kitchener, M.D with Rouyn-Noranda.
True, not sure how I forgot about them. One of Marner, Dermott, Bracco is bound to advance to the Memorial Cup

Just begs the question... how much was his production being held back by being on the ramparts? He might have 15-20 more points now if he was playing with this team all year, but who really knows
Dermott would be a call up and will be on the Marlies next year, he probably has the 2nd best shot. If Kitchener gets knocked out early I could see Bracco getting a taste as we don't need to send him back to the CHL (see Milano).The call ups to the Marlies would probably just be players that are likely turning pro next year
Neilson, Desrouches, Marner (hopefully) and Timashov.
Don't think any others have a remote change of playing.

Milano is doing decent in .5 ppg in the AHL, and had a good WJC Not saying what we should do with Bracco, because it really depends on how the rest of his season goes.Milano is an example as to why you should send the player back to the CHL despite being AHL eligible at 19. Bracco would benefit from being in the OHL another year given the immense winger depth on the Marlies next year.

Newly acquired forward for the Shawinigan Cataractes, Dmytro Timashov, is the second star. He scored one goal, added 6 assists and maintained a +4 rating in 2 games. He was named the first star in his first game with his new team on Friday when he assisted on 4 of his team’s 6 goals. He has the second best points-per-game average in the league with 1.94 points per game.
I just really wonder why he fell so hard in the draft. Not even like his production is bad, he was killing it in his draft year and was rookie of the year as well...
And before anyone says he's small... what about Bracco, Konency, etc.
Really confusing.

plays more canadian like than swedish, my opinion.
I believe the QMJHL factor is also why he fell. There are a lot of NHL teams (I think half of them) without a scout in the QMJHL.
His former teammate with Quebec, Matthew Boucher, is on pace for a 43 goals and 80 points season and he might not even get drafted. People aren't talking about him but he has similar stats to potential 1st-2nd round picks. At 5'10 and 175 lbs he's not that small. Plus he grew 3 inches in three years. We can assume he's still growing.
Look at Duclair. He should have gone higher than 3rd round.
A smaller forward in the Q who scored at less than a point/game shouldnt have gone higher than a 3rd.
Boxscore scouting is a deeply flawed method of judgment. You're showing exactly why scouts need to actually watch games.
Practically the same P/GP as Ehlers had last year.
This.
He played a long time with an injury during his draft season and lost confidence in front of the net but the talent was clearly still there. He was even snubbed by Team Canada during a 50 goals (99 points) / 59 games season. And 5'11 190 lbs isn't that small.
I'm sure Timashov got the QMJHL snub.
From what I remember about Duclair is that he fell because of attitude issues. He was predicted to go around the same time that Erne was but teams felt they had concerns about him not being a team player. Kind of like how Nylander fell to 8, teams will hear something, spread it. Next thing you know, the Rangers or Red Wings are taking this guy in the 3rd round and he's lighting it up. Funny, isn't it?

Everyone was surprised that Colorado kept passing on him even though Patrick Roy was his coach. They thought they knew something that no one else did.
