I came down to Dube, Rittich, Kulak, and Mangiapane.

I don't consider Kulak a prospect anymore as he's pretty much already a 'tweener who could graduate full time this year, but I guess technically he is a prospect.

Rittich had an impressive year, but I've been burned by jumping on the goalie hype train too early in the past. I want to see similar numbers/performance this year before I think he's the real deal.

Mangiapane has done well enough at every level, but I am concerned that he can't handle the size of the NHL.

Dube had another solid season in junior and had an impressive showing at the WJC even if it was as a 4th liner. He was a difference maker. I'm excited to see his progression going forward. Even if he tops out as a 3rd liner, he'll be a quality NHL player.

I went with Dube.
