This is the way I look at it. We have 3 AAA forward prospects right now in Sven, Gaudreau, and Monahan and in my opinion they are all pretty equal:

Sven: Very Talented, Average Two-Way Play, Injury Concerns, Most Proven. Has that edge.

Monahan: Least natural talent of the 3, Best 2-Way Game, Most Important Position

Gaudreau: Most talented, most explosive, Size is a concern and big risk.

1a) Sven Baertschi: takes the first spot because he is the most proven.
1b) Sean Monahan: Best two way play, importance of position, less risky than Gaudreau
1c) Johnny Hockey: The X-Factor- the potential to be the best but size poses the biggest risk.
