Granlund is next. I want to see how he does in the AHL again, I think he'll have a great year.

I like Max Reinhart. I think he's flying under a lot of peoples radars and could be a very effective character guy on the 3rd line. I can see him being a Curtis Glencross type player, without the whining

[Nehkara]

After watching him at development camp, Klimchuk is the guy.

[thethumwood]

Granlund, Poirer, and Reinhart are all very close IMO. Voted Granlund though as for his first year from Europe, shows huuuge potential.

[Ozy_Flame]

Can we please just give Granlund the respect he deserves? This kid is gun' be gud!!!

[Cali Panthers Fan]

Faceoff between Granlund, Wotherspoon, and Reinhart.

I went Wotherspoon again for reasons mentioned in last thread. I see him being part of a shut down pairing, or the defense first guy on a top pairing. He's going to be a player for a long time.

[SuperMatt18]

Granlund this time for me. Think his supporters in the last thread convinced me, the way he responded in his first year in N.A. was quite remarkable.

My list at this point is:

Bennett
Gaudreau
Baertschi
Poirier
Granlund
Wotherspoon
Klimchuk
Sieloff
Reinhart

Just not enough to actually vote for him?

I went with Klimchuk in this round, but boy it was a tough call. I do love Granlund's push up the prospect list, love two goaltenders, and think Wotherspoon should get some love as well.

The Reinhart arguments I've read in round 4 were compelling as well.

I did vote for him

Tyler Wotherspoon.

Remember the days or Kris Chucko, Matt Pelech, and Mitch Wahl?

Apparently I was a little impatient - Reinhart's next on my list so I'd like him to build up some love this round

Reinhart so low!

Man, doing this makes me so excited for the future! We have many great prospects now that I cannot wait to see how the develop. Just three years ago these polls would have not been nearly as exciting!

[Funkhouser]

3rd vote is a charm!!

[bubbsy]

went with granlund here, simply due to how well he was able to do in his first year here and how well he played wtih the heat and his brief stint with the big club.

[MJK]

Ortio!

[Fighting Banana Slug]

Granlund based on his terrific progression, but was seriously tempted by Klimchuk's upside. Sielloff, Wotherspoon and goalies should be picked soon as well. So nice to see a long list where there is still real NHL potential.

[RyZ]

Granlund has higher upside but I think Reinhart and 'Spoon have better chances of having long NHL careers. And Klimchuck isn't far behind that group at all, if any. Good to have these tough decisions.

4th times a charm...
