Gaudreau and Gillies have been dominating at their level.
Klimchuck, Poirer and Jankowski are not anywhere close to being dominate.
Backlund and Baertschi were better as 19 year olds in the CHL..

Poirier is 9th in scoring in the Q, he is also the only player in the top 45....yep top 45 in scoring that has over 100 PM's. There is only one guy who is even close. I would say anyone in top 10 league scoring is dominating and considering he plays a lot less minutes then those other guys in the top 10 I would say "not anywhere close to be dominate" is rather inaccurate.
Klimchuk has 49 points in 39 games after coming back from an injury. Curtis Lazar who is seen as "ripping it up" in the W for a 19 year old has 54 points in 38 games. I would agree Klimchuk is not dominating the WHL but he is having a great season all things considered.
Jankowski you are spot on.
