Went with Sale hoping the end of his season last year was no fluke and a taste of things to come.

Went Sale here. I have not been super impressed by him in the rookie showcase and I feel like this position may dip further based on this season in juniors.

I think Eduard Sale most likely will not be an NHLer.

Miettinen seems like a safe bet and I think he has strong 2C upside. I see a lot of Jordan Staal in him. I have him third on my list.

He was always going to be a boom/bust type of player. Since his draft, his stock certainly has not gone up. This season is, very likely, his make or break year.

Not just since his draft year, it cratered from his D-1 until now.

Before his draft year he was considered a likely top 5 guy, then plays poorly and gets drafted 20th, and now would not be re-drafted in the 1st round.

Good point. Has had a downward trajectory for a while now. I did give him a pass for last season but unless he is much improved this season, it would certainly justify us ranking him so low in our prospect pool.
