The top 3 are head and shoulders above the rest IMO. Matthews looks to be a franchise forward. Laine looks like he's going to be an elite player and so does Pull-an-RV. Dubois is big, plays with an edge, can play all 3 forward positions and plays a 200ft game. Chychrun to me looks like the best defender but that's just my POV. I think he's stepping it up when he has to and he plays more of a style that I like or that I see the Flames going for. I'm sure some of the other guys are really good too but after the top 3, my preference is Dubois both because of his style and because he fills a need for the Flames and then Chychrun just looks like a better player than the remain forwards and I remember reading that he did play some forward this past year too.
