Pretty good top 10 in my opinion - I think I had 8 out of 10. I may have substituted Brossoit out for Granlund but even the guys on the fringe probably aren't too far away from cracking the top 10 - interested to see Carter Bancks on there. How do you compare him to a guy like Dustin Sylvester?
The one thing that I think is always difficult is comparing junior level progress vs. AHL or NHL progress. Guys like Nemisz and Byron had similar numbers to some of the guys above them in junior but obviously found that the competition is stiffer at the professional level. Difficult assessment and why sometimes you have to wait for guys to hit the AHL to be able to truly assess them (with the exception of gems like Bartschi of course). Good synopsis - enjoyed reading it.
