It's obviously going to be Kaprizov but it annoys me that the guy can play half a dozen seasons of professional hockey at a high level and then come in and be judged on the same playing field as a guy like Robertson who played a total of 60 AHL games before jumping up to the show. Even Nedeljkovic, who isn't as egregious as Kaprizov, started NHL games three different NHL seasons before this one, initially in 2016-2017.
One of these guys is a real rookie. The other guys are seasoned veterans. They should really change the eligibility criteria based on when you started playing pro hockey.
