2013 does a good job of illustrating what I was trying to say with respect to Hathaway: even though he only has 4th line potential, there is still some value in that, and his likelihood of getting there is high, which should increase his total value relative to players with higher upside but very low likelihood of getting there.
Look at Bouma at 21 and Ferland at 26. They were ranked below guys like: Knight, Horak, Agostino and Granlund, Reinhart and Arnold because they didn't have the upside of those guys.
But they have both become solid bottom 6ers, and as a result, are more valuable than any of those other guys mentioned.
