I think I saw Fox as one of our top 2 prospects according to one poster.
Overrated in general? I think Kylington is a bit overrated by many.
Underrated: Rittich. Jankowski. Poirier. Klimchuk. Hunter Smith. Mason McDonald. The latter two I think most fans have completely written off and I don't think that's fair.
Dark horse to play 20 games: Janko, Andersson, Kulak, Wotherspoon, Shinkaruk and Hathaway are the most likely to spend 20 games with the big team. I don't know if you consider any of them dark horses really. Maybe Klimchuk or Mangiapane?

Still don't get the hype behind Kulak, has done nothing to inspire optimism at the NHL level.
