I see getbak has it on the Prospects forum, but there's not much else to talk about these days....

So much for the idea of Pelletier being a Marchand comparable.

It'll be interesting to see how Zavgorodniy does next season without Lafreniere on his line.

It was my understanding that he was not on Lafreniere's line full time? I would expect the biggest thing would be him now facing the other team's top defenders more often than he normally would have.

Is it even a given that Zavgorodniy returns to the Q? As a 20-y-o he'll be eligible to play in the AHL, right?

If you're a nice guy who can play hockey, the Flames are looking to draft you. Somehow I'd feel better with more jerks in our system.

Based on the organization's rationale for drafting Pelletier, this seems odd.

Maybe he's extremely professional off the ice?

By play like Marchand, they weren't talking about his antics. They were referring to skill level, drawing penalties, not being afraid to play in the corners and driving to the net.

Not a great comparable then. You need to be a #### disturber to be a Marchand comparable.

Your description sounds like Brayden Point to me.
