Calgarypuck Prospect Ranking 2020 - Round 16

[Sandman]

I went with Yelesin. He looks like a good, young, solid guy who can skate. Not the highest ceiling, but sometimes "NHL player" is a high enough ceiling.

For those voting Boltmann, what is the allure? Not trying to sound rude or sarcastic, just trying to figure him out....

I already mentioned his sweet name. That is the allure for me. What I know about the remaining prospects is negligible at best, so I'm voting for either guys with sweet names, or I'll vote for someone else's choice if they have a convincing argument.

It's going to have to be a pretty good argument to sway me away from Boltmann! though.

Don't know enough about any of these guys to vote but Boltmann was just taken 80th overall in a deep draft so he must have some decent potential.

I understand what your saying, but there's nothing in his stats that suggest there's anything to see. This guy wasn't even on anyone's radar going in to the draft-was it necessary to spend a third rounder on this kid? I'm usually pretty knowledgeable about the players, but this one was a surprise. You're right though-there must be a reason he was selected so early....

Right shot and can skate.

I think Button said he will "play"

Don't think he's going high up the roster, but it sounds like they wouldn't be surprised if he turned into an NHLer
