Penguins #10 prospect

Strait, don't even understand the debate. Is already as good as most of the other guys on this list could ever hope to be.

The reason all of these UPSIDE!! guys were mid-round picks is that most of them will probably bust.

EDIT: Can we clarify if Zatkoff is eligible? Been beating the drum for him to be added for a while.

Zatkoff is only a few months older than Strait so I think he should count.

Ya, we can probably wrap this one up.

Calling this one for Strait. And Zatkoff is eligible, this year only. He'd have been added to the next poll anyway.

Serious question. Would anyone have said Scuderi had the upside to be on the top pairing of a cup winning team?
