Zykov has a ton of upside and Rychel has some serious rising potential.
Interesting, I did some more reading on Hartman and he seems like a good player too. Lots of character. So you think Hartman is going to go after both Zykov and Rychel ? I think Zykov is gonna be a steal, yet rated 29-30 ish. And while I like what I seen and read on Hartman, my only concern was this quote on the site evaluating him-

"Hartman’s style is reminiscent of Ryan Callahan. Potential wise, he could become an excellent second line player capable of playing key minutes against top oppostion and on the PK and PP. He is a pretty safe pick though, as even if he can’t crack the top 6, he will make the NHL in a bottom line capacity."

While I love Callahan, Hartman is not projected as a first line guy. I want a sleeper !! lol and I want pure goal scoring as I think this organization sorely lacks it. And while I think a player like Hartman is needed on every team, I think they can be easily aquired in terms of guys who can do the PK etc like Lance Bouwma, Reinhart, Horak etc. But he seems to have character, so I like that aspect.
