Thx, much appreciated.Wright - Overscouted, pretty much three years with every eye on him. Won't take you out of your seats, will be a solid good player but not a franchise level talent. Will play top two lines for 10+ years, intelligent, complete center. One scout says he reminds him of Sean Couturier in the sense that he was overscouted and dropped to 8th but the flyers never regretted it.
Slaf - Physical Specimen, future 40 goal scorer. But will need a good two way center to play with and take advantage of his shot. Has a goal scorer's instinct which can't be taught but more than one scout quoted are not happy with his consistency. Why didn't he dominate in Finland?
Cooley - Probably the most potential of the three, but his size will be an issue for a center. Flashy, finds way to create offense. Tremendous character, very dynamic player. If he was 6'2 like Wright he would be easily no.1 but he might end up playing wing due to size.
I kinda like when there is some mystery as to who goes #1 !!
No matter who goes where, we get a very good player!
