Son, I am disappoint. Hopefully the Pens get bounced in the first round and the Bruins win the cup
I want to bring some attention to the "two b-level, no name prospects" for a second.

I know HF is plenty flawed in its ratings, but both Agostino & Hanowski are currently rated a 7.0C, a better rating than all of our current prospects not named Baertschi, Gaudreau, Jankowski or Reinhart.

Just because they are lesser known does not mean they are going to be nothing. Other "name" prospects that share a 7.0C rating throughout the league are John Gibson, Zac Dalpe, Jeremy Morin, Mark McNeill, Calvin Pickard, Duncan Siemens, Boone Jenner, Scott Glennie, Martin Frk, Tomas Jurko, Ryan Sproul, Xavier Ouellet, Kyle Rau, Linden Vey and Jake Muzzin. And higher than "name" prospects like Zemus Girgensons. I also stopped looking (alphabetically) at Los Angeles.

So maybe it's a situation where we should have some more faith in the scouting department as they probably know alot more about these kids than we do.
