this is where it will get interesting - and difficult

so far, every one has been a white wash, or a 2 horse race - but from here it's wide open

For me, it's between Stromgren and Kuznetsov, and I keep changing my mind. Clicked on Stromgren.

MEP for me as he is my dark horse prospect for the past 2 seasons and seems to take a step each year. I know he's likely a tweener but I don't know enough about guys like stromgren to vote for them. I like Kuznetsov but can't see NHL upside unless he becomes absolutely elite defensively.

Someone who went to the prospect camp mentioned that Kuznetsov looked very impressive and reminded them of Tanev. I sure hope that’s what we have.

Ciona. The kid is going to be an NHLer. No question.

Solovyov is the best prospect on the list, so I picked him.

Gone with Solovyov as well. Bias towards the player I have actually watched, but he has taken definite strides over the last year

Similar for me, with "Han SOLO"vyov outside consideration - went with Kuz.

I have Solovyov over Kuznetsov, but I took Ronni over both of them

Has work to do but has very intriguing tools. He should get way more playing time this season and had a good showing at camp

I've always liked Solovyov but Kuznetsov is more intriguing to me. Kuznetsov in other leagues has proven he can compliment a rover type D man. This is not a small role.

Kuznetsov over Soloyoyov, but just slightly for the skill set.

Parker Bell should start getting some consideration too. I think he'll have a big year.

Solovyov is going to shock fans here, dude could step in as early as the start of this year if there wasn’t such a backlog at D. Once the UFAs get figured out I think he has a chance to win a spot.

Probably a Scorpion question. Did Solovyov do the OHL-KHL-AHL route because of Covid?

Stromgrem is an interesting prospect, but it's hard to put him ahead of other guys that have shown more in the AHL.
Went with Kuznetsov

Going purely off others here as I haven't seen either...
I will go with Solo, followed by Ciona, Klapka, Stromgren, Roni & Kuznetsov

We will be lucky if more than one of this group sees real games
If I were a betting man, I would say that Klapka, Ciona and Solo have the best chance of those remaining.

I am not too concerned about which of them has been better in the AHL, I am more concerned with which one has the tools to, and is more likely to make the jump to the NHL.

And I feel Kuznetsov is more likely than Solovyov.

And for similar reasons, I like Stromgren - intriguing toolset, if he can put it all together

I too think that Parker will answer the Bell this year.

Yes, I believe so, likely because the OHL did not operate at all during the 2020–21 season.

Kuznetsov is a strange one to me. Firmly the Wranglers' weakest defender last year, for my money, and he also played the easiest minutes. He's a bit younger but I just don't see him having the skating or puck skills to play NHL games.
