At first glance I was going to disagree with you as a top 60 list should average out to only 2 players per team but when Pulkkinen is making the top 60 I think there's definite room to include his countryman Granlund.

22 year old Pulkkinen
5'10 190 pounds
59 points in 71 AHL games (lead his team in points but Emmerton was ~ a point per game)
0 points in 3 NHL games
4th round pick in 2010

21 year old Granlund
5'11 185 pounds
46 points in 51 AHL games (third on his team in points (missed games) on a team with 3 players with ~ a point per game)
3 points in 7 NHL games
2nd round pick in 2011
