Pouliot has higher upside than either but also higher risk, he's potentially a top pairing guy but if the offense at the NHL isn't good could bust.
He is a great skater and has very good offensive skills, makes a real good first pass and can run a power play (in the dub anyway). He is not huge and I'd say not bad but average in his own end at this point. Maybe if you're familiar with Morgan Rielly, not as explosive but does fight and hit a little whereas Rielly is like Mike Nylander soft.
