No one knows who these guys are lol…we should stop this poll at #15 because it’s just dice-rolling at this point…

Foster, but you’d hope Plante has a nice freshman year.

There's dozens of us who know who these people are. Sorry you're not a true fan Andy.

Doesn't mean much, but Pietila looked surprisingly good vs some NHL'ers in some drills and stuff..

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

I assume he'll be next.

I think ya'll are sleeping on Plante. He had a very good USHL season. I'm actually excited to see how he does in the NCAA.

Same vibes as Broz.

They can be bros together in the NHL in a few years.

Ok, bye

Cooper Foster had a nice jump in production, and in highlights he scores the kinda goals that you’d think would more readily translate to the pros. Good skater too.

He was 8th in USHL scoring last year, his teammate was 3rd. Who's that teammate you ask? None other than #15 Pens Prospect Mac Swanson.

I would have agreed in years past but with the boost in prospect pool, I'm certainly much more familiar with some of these guys at this level than before. Certainly Gauthier, Plante, Kangas.

That’s because he stayed back to actually see if could be effective in a league for 17-18 year olds instead of going to play college like all the other 19year olds. Hell, most of the 18 year olds have already left , at least the ones with NHL potential.

But good for him I guess. Not impressing me. And everyone knows you can’t make the NHL if you don’t impress me.
