#NHLCombine and #MeetTheFuture. Gauthier is easily most physically impressive kid here. Where he'll rank on alltime combine list is question

So I wonder what everyone thinks about highly ranked prospects who aren't near the top at the combine. Do you think it's a bad thing?
To me, I feel like if they're good enough to be ranked highly and yet do poorly at the combine they have more potential to do even better when they even become more athletic.

Eventually a couple of expansion teams will be added which will nestle the Oilers into 16th.

Gauthier comes from the Rougeau pro wrestling family. Not surprising he does well in physical testing.

Thoughts on Nylander from the Combine.

Interesting, but maybe not surprising. Not unheard of prospects who just finished the memorial cup last week to skip fitness testing.

No Max Jones at NHL scouting combine for testing today. Sounds like he left Buffalo yesterday.

It's amazing how perception of a player can be coloured by his brother. Alex Nylander is not small, and by many accounts is a decently gritty player. I would have no problem if the Flames pick him.

The Wingate test (also known as the Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT)) is an anaerobic test, most often performed on a cycle ergometer, that measures peak anaerobic power and anaerobic capacity.
