Don't know about others, but I watched Tuulola play in the U18 this year and I remember thinking he looked good. Like late 2nd to late 3rd round good. Good size, good work ethic, some edge to his game, not afraid to make shoot the puck and make plays, seemed to enjoy the tense moments of the game. Pretty good shot. Just generally a guy that clearly liked to be noticed and didn't do it in a stupid way. I think that's a plus.

Admittedly I didn't watch that analytically (obviously had no idea he'd end up with the Flames), so I really couldn't make an analytical comparison to other guys left on the list and say with confidence that "this guy is better than that guy".

Especially with his good showing at camp I feel very comfortable voting for him at this point. Seems like the right ballpark, and his injuries are a clear rational reason why he might have dropped way too much. I won't argue whether he's better or worse than some other guy getting votes now, but at least I've seen this guy play, several full games.
