oh ya I think so...I like Ekblad but Reinhart is going to be I think momre dynamic than him...I compare Reinhart to Rick Nash...I find they play a bit the same...they look the same in size and skating ability as well has puck handling...I think Reinhart is my top runner for 2014.
I say Jake Virtanen could be in the running for these spots after Reinhart...I saw everyone play that is list and I think Ho-sang is better than Ekblad myself, I also think Viertanen is an amazing prospect who is on the same level as Ho-Sang myself...virtanen is a great playmaker as well as a strong player and excellent goal scorer...Ho-Sang has amazing speed, magical puck handling and a great scoring ability I would like to see him pass more which is what Virtanen does...I love them all myself I have:
1. Sam Reinhart
2. Joshua Ho-Sang
3. Jake Virtanen
4. Aaron Ekblad

What height is he ? He's liste as 6'1" on the WHL website, but does he project to stay this height like Max or is he likely to reach Griffin's size ? Also, how would you rate his hockey sense and vision overall (since he seems to possess every other attribute) ?

Have a feeling he will be scrutinized like Couturier was since he will have an extra year of eyes on him.
I think he is the best young forward in the WHL. I think he has more offense then Lazar and he is bigger then Forsberg. Virtanen is interesting guy too but we won't see him till next year.

I completely forgot about Virtanen. He's probably 4th on my list, since I haven't watch a whole lot or know much about him.

Not really. There's no way to predict whether he'll gain height or not. Even if you did some x-rays, it would only tell you whether there's the possibility he'll gain height. The only thing you could say is that he's unlikely to gain 3 inches and match Griffin since he's already 16 and that would be out of the ordinary.

cant help but think he would grow another inch or 2 to be around 6'02 or 6'03...his hockey sense and vision are exceptional, there is nothing i do not like about this prospect.
He seems to be greatly outplaying the 2013 picks; Forsberg and Lazar.
Max seems to be helping him out a bit; almost every goal Sam scores seems to have Max on the first assist, and vice versa. This is exactly the situation I was hoping to see this year in Kootenay.
Bump. Expect a massive season out of him next year. Will be awesome to see him and Virtanen go head to head in the WHL for 2 years.
Not sure it's safe to say we can expect a massive season. He's losing his brother and linemate Max Reinhart to the AHL and won't have a ton to work with on the ice for the Ice. I could see similar numbers next year, actually.
