Hey everyone,

I wanted to ask the knowledge of everyone here who knows more than I do...

I have been looking around for months now and I see the so called "prospect" websites like hockeys future, eliete prospects and they give Johnny Gaudreau a "c" grade at best.

Although you can accuse me of being an oilers troll, I am definately not. I was at Iggy's first game vs Chicago back in the day, and I just wanted to ask why Johnny Hockey has such a low rating by these sites.

Is that based clearly on size?

If you looked at the NCAA football or basketball leauge winners (hiesman and I dont know what baseketball gives out) there is no way any of these guys would be considered anything but a lock for a great pro career.

I can prove my fan status with my old school flaming captain C fleury jersey lol.

Anyhow, is it purely size? A guy who averages 2 points a game in his last year, wins the MVP should do better than that, shouldnt he?
