Last one of the summer folks as Rookie Camp begins this afternoon with physicals. Let's make it count! Who rounds out the top 25?

I voted Balisy, but for some reason it won't count it. Looks like he will lock up this last spot anyway.

[I Will Son]

Shalla for me again

It counted it. Balisy has 3 votes.

[I Will Son]

I guess im the only one who is taking a chance on Shalla

[adsfan]

I stopped voting. I have only seen two guys on the list play a lot. The third guy underwhelms me in the few games that I have seen. It has been interesting reading! I look forward to seeing some more of these players in Milwaukee this season.

[PredsV82]

I just had to vote for the guy whose name sounds like "pus"

[Firestorm]

I`m not going to lie but in every vote, I`ve basically gone on what other people have said.

[utmfisher19]

Man, this is tough...

real tough.

Um, Thang with a 2nd place to Bitetto

[CantbeatzPekka]

puustinen

[AtlantaWhaler]

Balisy wins it?

[triggrman]

If you started it all over would Smth be number 1 or 2?

he wouldnt displace Blum, and probably not Ellis.

Smith has had a couple of great games against what are basically junior hockey players,

Ellis has had a great career in junior hockey, and Blum has had great games against NHL players..

What made Smith stand out is the junior players he lit up were wearing an NHL teams jersey.

I'll pee myself over Smith if he has a hattie against guys who are legitimately battling for roster spots and/or proven NHL players

I think he's about right. We still rated him higher than:

Blake Geoffrion
Austin Watson
Matt Halischuk
Michael Latta
Gabriel Bourque
Patrick Cehlin

Ahh but he lit it up at the WC this summer against a lot of NHL players.

[I Will Son]

And both games were also against a lot of players who have had plenty of time in the AHL
