As per usual the vote is up to you. Some see it as most likely to play, some see it as highest ceiling, others see it as a mix of both.
Happy voting!
Who will join Sean Monahan, Johnny Gaudreau, Sam Bennett ,Matthew Tkachuk and Mark Jankowski as the top prospect. Previous four have gone straight to the show.
No to Lomberg please. He's 23 already, and clearly not cut out for the NHL. Plays a tough man's game but is listed at 5'9" and 190 pounds. He tried his style of play in the NHL and the big boys tuned him up good. He's a career AHLer.
Sveningsson again for me, for like the 5th round in a row too. Good progress so far with domination in the junior leagues, and is playing in the top Swedish league at 19. That's much better than his draft position would suggest. High skilled late pick with a decent NHL frame (6'0" and 180 pounds at a young age). He's got as good a shot at an NHL career as any on this list.

Went Zavgorodny. Super young for this years draft. Looked good in the offensive zone at development camp. Debated Pospisil because he looked good as well but considering Zavgorodny would have been in next years draft if he had been born a month and a few days later, I picked him.
Location: F*** me. We're so f***ing good, you check the f***ing standings? Lets f***ing go! F***ing practice!

Big boy Kassian DID NOT tune him up good. Lomberg ****** her. He has no fear and can hold his own. Great pest and agitator. Non stop motor. Very entertaining if nothing else.

They never really got started. Kassian lost his footing and the officials jumped in before he could really throw a decent punch.
However, this happened a few weeks later and I'm surprised Lomberg wasn't hospitalized after.
Listen, I applaud his courage, but the guy just isn't built to play that way in the NHL. I worry that he's going to get seriously hurt some day playing that way. He doesn't have nearly enough skill to stick in the NHL either, so yeah, not a big fan of Lomberg.
