He's one of the more polarizing prospects as some don't see a high ceiling. I don't think he's going to be a bust as he looks to have a high floor but he doesn't appear like he's going to be a franchise player or anything or even a first line player. If he turns into the next Backlund it's not a bad thing though but this team really needs some high talent prospects in the pipeline seeing the last two drafts outside of Coronato and Poirier haven't added much to the talent base.

Pronmon and Wheeler are with the Athletic.
Hronek is labelled as bubble top of the line-up and middle line-up guy.
That is the same tier as the guys picked 8, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 (Honzek), 18, 19, 23, 32.
Everyone else picked after him as listed in the tier: Middle of the line-up player, except for the guy the Leafs took (Has a chance to play games) and the Blues guy (projected to play games)
So based on their tiers - no one picked below him is in a tier above him and he's in the same tier as a bunch of guys picked ahead of him.
He's not more polarizing than most guys picked in these spots.
