I worry about Huckins' lack of footspeed. It could make his transition to the NHL really tough. I know skating can be improved, but that has more to do with efficiency and edgework. Pure quickness doesn't tend to improve that much.
I like Jordan's perceived hockey IQ, skating ability, and first pass/play reads. He's got an average NHL frame that he should fill out a bit more and plays well in his own end. He's not an elite player, but he could be a solid depth defenseman.
I don't think much of Parsons these days. He's really struggled as a pro, more than most goalies do when they make the transition. Also, if you have 3 equal prospects and one of them is a goalie, the goalie should always be ranked last due to volatility of the position.
I went with Cole Jordan.
