Better or worse top 15 than this time last year?
Dominik Lakatos: Good pick. Triple overager, but he's been very productive in Extraliga. Should be NHL ready within two or three seasons.
I know it's early but I was just coming to ask about the WJC for this coming January. I agree with you that Chytil will be a given, but does anyone here who is more familiar with the younger guys have a guess whom else might be playing in the WJC this season potentially?
Edit: I guess Andersson too is probably likely.
Also, we drafted probably another two players who will play in the WJC this year, Andersson and Chytil. Sjalin might have a chance, although it probably is more likely that he'll play next season, not the upcoming one. So we really should have at least two in the WJC's this upcoming season, and then probably one more when you consider the chances of Day, Gettinger, Sjalin and Wall. Would not be bad to have 3 in the WJC's this year, I'd take that.
Buchnevich and DeAngelo aren't prospects. Also, I'm not sure about Andersson ahead of Shestyorkin, unless you are just completely against ranking goalies high.
He was never officially confirmed to he coming for camp though. Pretty sure it was just a rumor. Either that, or plans changed.
It was confirmed via Russian media.
I was going by the midyear criteria of 40 NHL games or less, 24 and under.
I'm hesitant to rank Shesty too high because goalies are really difficult to evaluate coming from large ice surfaces and a league with less net-front traffic.

Well then, in that case, either he decommitted or the Rangers did.
They're both prospects by HF's methodology.
Best guess with no info is that he's injured/sick. Think Josh Khalfin is digging into it, we'll have an answer soon enough.
Oh that's also true. Could be injured or sick.
Hmmmmmm. That might be more likely.

Paliotta non-QO surprise to me, the others no great losses
wonder if Russion G who plays in Finland has out clause from his 3 year extension, takes Skapski's place
