he mentions alriksson as a possible inclusion but doesn't see him as more than possibly an ahl player

Yeah. Responding to a comment and not in the article itself.

Watched him a lot in Guelph. Have watched him in Barrie. Don’t think he has it in him to be more than a unique AHLer.

Not sure how KK is ranked lower than Klimovich.

Real question is what has Mynio done to be ranked a tier above KK?

Also, how can you like KK more when he was drafted?

 

[WTG]

McWard and Dorrington aren't even listed but Tolopilo is? I feel this list is a big meme and shouldn't be taken seriously.

He wrote that he likes KK more than where he was drafted. In other words, he thinks he’s better than his draft position would indicate.

Whoops, I'm illiterate apparently.

Although, I still stand by this list being a big nothing burger. Seems like mostly reputation based and surface level analysis.

Any time a list ranks Lekkerimaki ahead of Willander my initial reaction is to disregard the whole thing immediately.

Wheeler is also one of those guys who tries to be a 'prospect guy' who I don't think really understands prospects/prospect development/drafting at all.

I think a lot of sports media is still stuck on the idea that potential 30 goal scorers >>>>>> really good 2 way, 20min+ top4 D that doesn’t put up a lot of points.
The former is actually always available in trade and UFA and the latter is rarely available in UFA or trades. Logically the one with the lower supply should always be seen as more valuable.

I think Mueller is being a tad underrated as well. He's having a fantastic first season in the AHL, has great wheels and plays a 200-foot game.

Would not be surprised to see him carve out a career as a solid bottom 6 player in the NHL.

Ok let me just say I know, but...Kravstov has been on quite the streak with 7G 7A 14Pts over his last 10GP.

Season statline - 48GP 17G (4PPG) 23A 40Pts +16 137SOG 14Hits 39BLK 18:10TOI. Career highs in basically every category except hits (he's 1 off currently in 7 fewer games).

I know I've been flamed for even suggesting it, but I haven't given up on the idea that Kravtsov might one day return to the NHL.......and his rights still belong to the Canucks.

We could bring back Josh Leivo too. He's leading the KHL in scoring !
