Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek. EEK already has 9 games under his belt (2 g 1 a), and didn't look out of place at all.

None of them? Or they would be in the NHL.

Not true, Kaprizov is a prime example of it. Ek showed he could play in the NHL this year, but was sent back so he could get more minutes instead of playing bottom 6 time.
 
Greenway is very good at this level but I don't think he's quite ready. He should be real good once he does sign though.

Kylington is one of Calgary's 7 best defensemen right now but he's not quite ready yet either, though I'm expecting him to be called up after some space is made at the deadline.
 
Colin White could easily play in the Sens bottom 6 right now, but that's saying more about the Sens bottom 6 than anything. He's pretty close though, regardless.

Kaprizov, Eriksson Ek are the two locks imo.
 
Chabot is close. Kaprizov, Greenway, Barzal, Eriksson Ek as well.
 
One name that hasn't been said yet but might be is Rykov.

He's been playing regular minutes on a stacked SKA St. Petersburg team.
 
Kaprizov, Ek.

Greenway...I think they'll let him develop a bit more, though if all they wanted was a fourth line big guy I'm sure he'd be as good as the average 4th liner in the league. This sort of play continues though he might come to camp with special attention paid to him.

Colin White will most definitely be on the Sens by the end of the year as per Pierre Dorion.

Good for him. I really like his game and really like some of the Sens top end prospects right now: White Chabot Brown. If they go on any type of run and want Edler or Tanev Id love to make a deal with the Sens to get some top end prospects back :)
 
Larsson was also fine in the games he played with the Ducks, but he's better off playing heavier minutes in Frolunda. He wouldn't have much impact in the Ducks lineup, but he's ready in the sense that he wouldn't look out of place either.
 
I believe that Grundstrom could jump into the NHL today and contribute.

His game is SO suited for the NHL.

Mikael Renberg 2.0.
 
Many would probably not look out of place, but none would be a impact player is my guess.

I can't believe he actually managed to play in the NHL without looking terrible. He's had some awful moments in Frölunda the few games I've watched and is not looking particularly good at the WJC either. Weak on the puck, can't handle pressure and shows some pretty rough hands and decision making along the boards.

Eriksson Ek and maybe Grundström could play in the NHL today without looking too much out of place.
