I'd take Granlund ahead of Poirier right now because of how much he's shown at the pro level, whereas Poirier is basically just graduating. He looked good in the few games he had, though. He may easily have the higher ceiling, but numbers in the QMJHL don't convince me as much (considered the weakest CHL league) as a near PPG rookie season in the AHL.
3) Baertschi/Granlund
5) Poirier
Betting on Poirier jumping a spot or two by this time next summer.
