I am having a tough time figuring out how high to rank Gillies. He is right around here for me for sure, and I do think he is going to make a fine goaltender - a backup at least, and beyond that the sky is still the limit for him.
I just really like Kylington here. You can't teach offence. I think Kylington might be a better skater than Brodie is right now (and I realize what that statement means, as I think Brodie is one of the best skaters in the NHL). I really do see top-pairing potential in Kylington. I like him a lot more than Andersson, and a bit more than Hickey (who, I would say, is the most Giordano-like prospect in the system as a guy who excels at practically everything).
Gillies will win this one, but for me it is Kylington, and then I would be stuck between Gillies and Hickey for #4. Looks like I will be voting Hickey next.
