Hard to find some names to add here lol. I think we could use some defenseman in future drafts

Cam Berg

I'm a little surprised Maggio is leading this poll. He didn't really push any of the "AAAA'ers" this past camp and will be 22 in less than a month....

Does he have a shot at carving out an NHL career based off of some of his attributes, sure, but he's not even close to the first call up option at this point.

Will give this a few more days, based on these vote counts its so depressing how steeply the userbase has fallen off here.

I also think it’s our lack of upside prospect pool. Isles very much in win now mode with this group

When you are not in a rebuild there's not going to be a lot (aside from diehards) who care about prospects.

Everyone knows that our franchise is in the group that has to work hard to keep/attract players. The best way to do that, is to be competitive. So, we 'overpay' for talent, and hope that we have a GM that can fill in the holes, well enough to compete. And hopefully keep the cycle going.

I am nor a LL nutlikker, but I feel he has got us to that point in which we are competitive. Good drafting and a development system ought to keep us there.

I like where we are. I believe that we have made incremental steps for the past half dozen years, and are a solid organization. Our value says that we are, I think.

I hope it lasts...

It has to be Bednarik. Not because of where his game is now but because his potential is higher than the other candidates who frankly have proven their ceiling to be a mid level NHL player at best. Yes, I know even that last comment might be perceived as overly optimistic.
