I think Hunter is great. There are reasons the US passed over him for the WJC despite leading the OHL in scoring.

Thinking they are equal is showing a distinct misunderstanding of their current development cycles, what their skill sets are likely to develop into and how likely they are to develop.
Kid's a +30. what more could you possibly want.

I have yet to find a single scout who can use numbers to to debunk the case for Hunter while all I find on Willander is eye test remarks. When and IF Willander starts producing, I will recognize it. As of yet- it has not happened.
