I'm not. Low pick European picks tend to get underrestimated a lot, especially Finns. Kapanen, Miettinen and Jokinen never appeared on any top 50 lists, look how they turned out.

I didnt mean the Top 50. I meant the Top 10 of the Dallas prospects.

Ah, yeah you're right about that. I'd definitely think of him as a top 5 prospect of ours.

Kinda suprised that Niskanen is a top 50 pick. Also suprised that Neal is so low and Fransson so high. Lindgren should be on there somewhere
