Nothing against Arnold or guys like Kanzig but these are likely replacement level players in the NHL.

For me, Smith and McDonald are in the same boat as Klimchuk last year - I need to see some progression this year in order to get a good feel for who they are and then I can move them up the list.
I have Kulak in a similar boat - the only time I have seen him was in Penticton last year and he didn't impress. So I need to see something in Adi this year before I can move him up.
(Bennett was a different situation because I had seen more of him due to the draft hype - and read more about him as well)
