Stenberg looks like an awesome prospect and would be a worthy 1st overall pick and if McKenna isn't there but Ivar is Conroy should be sprinting to the stage. That being said, has his production dropped a bit since the World Js? I thought he was right around point per game most of the year but now he's at 32 in 37, slightly off. Still unreal but can anybody that watches SHL clarify if he's slowed down a tad?
Such an interesting top of the draft because it's such a massive apples to oranges in terms of environment for two high IQ offensive wingers.
McKenna adjusted to a new level in a new country while playing with only a handful of high level players and has exploded in the second half of the year.
Stenberg meanwhile has been in the Frolunda organization since he was like 15, now in his second year playing against fully grown men and is by all accounts playing on a high powered team (5 guys with 30 plus points, 1 guy with 29) where producing at an excellent clip most of the year.
Such a champagne problem having to pick between the two. Was in Milan last week and the sentiments were funny from Canuck fans, basically saying ideally they pick #2 cause then they just pick whoever is left and won't have to worry about screwing up whoever they'd pick first. Horrendous vibes in that fanbase right now.
