I really think Nygren should be an option here instead of Pateryn. I'm seriously torn between him and Gallagher right now, but looks like I might have to choose Gallagher... or not vote, I guess. And if Nygren WAS on this list already, I would suggest adding Pribyl.

Well Nygren hasn't been voted in yet, so I'll take this post as a vote for him.
Gallagher coming back here, this could end up being an interesting one. The problem with interesting ones is that they are immediately followed by a blow-out.
At this point, it has to be Diaz. Might not fit the "prospect" image that some has, but it is more obvious that he has an NHL career than Palushaj can ever dream of.
I like what I see from Gallagher but I'm not completly sold on him. Not because of his size but because I remember that we used to have 2 of the best goal scorer in WHL a decade ago in Balej & Milroy... both end up being AHL/Europe player.
And also because if you look closer, since 1997-1998, very few players that was in the best goal scorer in WHL for a single season became good NHL players.
Wait... are you saying you voted for who you thought was going to win, and not who you wanted to pick? That seems like an odd way to vote.
Politics you know... Actually that happens everytime here! They call that "useful vote" (vote utile). Kinda backwards IMHO.
Back on topic, voted Gallagher, it's been three times, he's clearly ahead of Tinordi and Kristo in my eyes.
And again, did something happen to McMillan?
