I haven't really seen any of the new guys left here, and of the rest the only ones that has shown anything to warrant any interest so far are Kalinski, Rinaldo and Testwuide. i personally don't see Testwuide as transferring his game into the NHL and I am not Rinaldo's biggest fan.

Kalinski had a poor season last year, but he can still turn it around and fight for the fourth line spot that may be open this year.

rinaldo

JVR21 · 08-14-2011, 05:18 PM

Akeson for high ceiling
Testwuide for likelihood of making an impact

Akeson, everyone else is a 4th liner at best.

tuckrr · 08-14-2011, 05:22 PM

And hovinen HE'S NOT UP THERE?!

DrinkFightFlyers · 08-14-2011, 07:36 PM

Lauridsen again. Dude is going to be a beast!

jd2210 · 08-14-2011, 09:04 PM

I guess I'm going with the Dane until he gets in. I think this round 4 or so for me.

Because, unlike most of the guys above him in this top 10, he'll actually play in the NHL someday.

And also unlike most of the guys above him in this top 10, should he make it to the NHL team he will actually hurt the team whereas the others would help the team.

Unless Rinaldo calms down, he does not have a lengthy NHL future even if Holmgren says he has an "NHL future."

We are the last team in the NHL that needs a loose cannon.

Who cares at this point? What is the difference between our #11 and # 16 prospects, really?

Something to argue about until the start of the season?

Literally every other argument is pretty played out. I mean, for god's sake we've resorted to making fun of Michael Leighton again.

Giroux tha Damaja · 08-15-2011, 02:14 AM

True enough.

JDinklage Morgoone · 08-15-2011, 10:04 AM

I've heard good stuff about Nobels. Anyone give me something more than that?

But we definitely need a Cannon of some sort. Right? Did we argue about that yet? I may have missed it because I took some time off.

I'm split between Testwuide and Hovinen. It seems like the goalie at least has some upside even if we really don't know what we might get out of him, if anything.

DeflatedFootball7 · 08-15-2011, 05:38 PM

It's really close between Testuwide, Hovinen, and Laudrisen...Hmmm...

we get at least 6'7" of pads in the way lol...

I just hope he doesnt have S.L.U.T.T.Y legs like MFL, Boosh, and BoB (in the playoffs)
