I'm not saying Kristo is going to make it and that Hudon won't but the likelyhood favors Kristo at this moment.
More like a poor man's 2nd liner. I know its fashionable to regret and miss the young players we trade away like they were all superstars but D'Agostini had a less than stellar season following his 20g scoring breakout season. He's a mediocre player with a low ceiling and yet as a prospect he was known for skating fast and having an incredible shot.

Besides, if Hudon is small, then Kristo is small. What emphasizing on Hudon's smallness?
