Interesting list, seems like this is really where the split starts to show up between voting for floor vs. ceiling, draft profile vs. recent progress, and such...

honestly I'm stumped, won't vote just yet

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Parascak, probably Chesley next, and then a pretty big gap IMO.

 

[qc14]

I think there's a little bit of recency bias with Protas vs. Parasack -- people are way underrating how impressive Parasack's D0 year was

 

[Silky mitts]

This is the most obvious one for me, kind of thinking Iorio and Chesley top out as bottom pairing guys

 

[Ridley Simon]

Our recent first pick, Parascak. It’s his turn

 

[DWGie26]

I went Dee and Chesley. He is having a good year and I think he can be a second pair guy. Probably a third pair guy once TVR departs but with upside. I think Chesley has higher ceiling and floor over Iorio. Parascak is going to be good but Chesley will make it to the NHL before TP. It will be hard for him to crack the Caps lineup anytime soon.

 

[Pigskin]

not sure about the more recent additions to the list, but this one is a no-brainer ... have to trust they knew what they were doing in picking Parascak

 

[Melkor]

Chesley. Parascak is a mistery to me. Can end up being a 1st line NHL forward. Also can end up as a 1st line Kunlun Red Star forward. The difference between floor and ceiling with him is too wide. Chesley looks more like a sure bet.
