Klimchuk it is even more silly to call a bust considering how many injuries have affected his development since being drafted and considering he's trending the opposite way Poirier is.
Klimchuk is very likely to make it to the NHL because his game works on so many levels. I'm glad he's showing some offensive prowess on the Heat (2nd in scoring behind Jankowski) but I believe he could eventually slot in anywhere in the bottom 6, and maybe even deputise on the 2nd line if need be.

Poirier is a bit of an enigma. He strikes me as the kind of player who might need a change of scenery to get going.
