I had Silayev the first time around, going with Lindstrom here.

Comments on his injuries not being all that severe, feels like a top five pick that you get late and profit.

[Mass_nerder]

Still went with Catton. Injury concerns aside, I'm always a little worried that more physically mature junior players won't be able to dominate in the NHL the way they did in the CHL.
Lindstrom seems like he's got a lot more going for him than just the size, but if Catton is playing at a similar level without the favourable physical attributes, that feels a little more impressive.

[ForeverFlameFan]

Catton again.

I don’t want an injury-prone player.

[Bingo]

I hate the term injury prone.

If I took a slash in the hand during the same season where I separated a shoulder I would be pissed by the tag.

[The Fonz]

Shoulder injuries scare me. They seem to linger.

[Erick Estrada]

This is a tough one for me as I would be happy with either. I don't pretend to watch these kids and just go off scouting reports and draft profiles, rankings, etc. This article on Catton kind of sold me on him as he's a great skater, drive to constantly improve, and a fantastic offensive skill set.
