They moved him back to left and he tore up the AHL. It's astonishing how ignorant people can be about Bärtschi. He was our best prospect last year. I don't care how bad of a year you have nobody drops 4 spots in a year.

The way I see it is he didn't drop, but other players passed him. Gaudreau is miles ahead of Sven. Bennett is an awesome prospect, and I think Poirier's playing style, his improvement in juniors and his brief stint in the AHL put him slightly ahead of Sven.
To be fair, I'd rank Sven 4th and it was really close between him and Poirier for 3rd. It's not like I've written him off as a bust or anything.
