Well yeah. And IMO, you have to consider and balance both.

And that's where I have no problem with a guy like Dube getting voted ahead of him, because at least Dube has a bit more upside to go along with the fact that he has a good chance of making it to the NHL.

But the difference in upside between Parsons and Mangiapane is so great that the fact that Mangiapane probably plays some games with the team this year doesn't come close to bridging that difference IMO.
