I saw this response and knew I didn't need to read farther. I voted for him for number 3, too.

I have Hackett as a friend on XBL. It was about a week before he was called up, too.

I'm voting for DUUUUUUMBA! I think this kid has All Star potential, he could be a big time impact player with his skating, attitude, and fearlessness.

I've become a big fan of Larsson, too, but I don't think he has the kind of top end potential. IMO Dumba could become a game controlling #1 NHL Dman or a Top Pair Dman. I don't see Larsson ever turning into a 1st Line NHL Center, the offense just isn't there. I'll be voting Larsson for #5 (assuming Larsson doesn't make a huge comeback to take #4).

I almost switched my pick of Bulmer from last poll and took Larsson instead, but no, I am a huge fan of both, but Bulmer seems like a guy you go to war with, especially if he ends up with a scoring touch in the bigs. Not that I wouldn't go to war with Larsson, I just know that Bulmer would do literally anything shy of a felony to win.

Larsson. He does the little things that win games. I have to plead ignorance on Dumba. I simply haven't been following him long enough to judge accurately.

I guess the right thing to vote was Dumba based on his potential, and yes.. he is awesome...

But i voted Zucker (again) because he is my favorite prospect right infront of the other guy mentioned above..

I feel like I'm the only Wild fan that isn't all that high on Coyle, I put Dumba AND Larsson above him, personally.

Went Dumba again, though. His ceiling, while he may be less likely to hit it than others in our pool, is just too high to ignore for me.

Agree, this is showing just how underrated Larsson is by Wild fans.

Yeah, I don't know about "underrated". He's got 30% of the vote and is definitely my #5 pick. I doubt he'd be below #5 on very many people's boards.

which is why this guy is underrated, come on he won Rookie of the year in SEL, he was a key cog in both the swedish WJC win, and his team winning SEL title, yet he can't out do coyle and dumba who can dominate juniors? his potential alone at least ties him with coyle, and his resume obliterates coyle and to this point dumba.

Went with Larsson because I just feel that he is slightly above Dumba right now.

Damba may pass him at some point in the future, but for now I'll go with Larsson.

I didn't know Tyler Cuma's mom had an account here. I don't see any other way he'd get a vote.

I'm going with Dumba, simply because he brings such a rare and exciting skillset.

The fact that a gem like Larsson is barely making our top-5, just speaks volumes to the quality of our prospect pool

Going with Dumba. Kid has so much potential. Just needs another year or two of seasoning.

Tuomaz put that vote in and I doubt that is Cuma's account, Tuomaz is a finnish poster probably is either trolling or a misclicked. You can see who voted who by clicking total number of votes for someone. And Cuma seems like he has a good head on his shoulders, better than most hockey tweeters/players.
