@@MikeBartner a better draft though so even if they are mid 20’s picks they should still get some good players, plus I’m really not convinced Colorado will be as good as they were this year next season. They don’t have the cap, their goaltending is suspect and their defense gets worse by the year, trading byram then letting walker walk just to bring in de haan and branstrom is a downgrade. Though branstrom is young enough to improve the team just feels incomplete like they squandered the chance to win multiple cups. Plus the uncertainty with landeskog and nichuskin. They’re a playoff team but probably a round one bounce barring a major move

I like McQueen but for him to be one of the oldest players in the draft and not even be a point per game usually u see these power forwards dominate against smaller weaker competition especially when they are older. Like McQueen is. I do agree he has insane potential but for me he needs to prove himself this season and have a 80-90 point season especially since Brandon should be a better team this year.

Dude misa 8? His ppg went down because spirit added all that nhl drafted talent so not to put all the pressure on him. Many times he was playing on spirit third line. He can skate, his vision to find the open man is sick, and his shot exceptional. Not a fair sampling this season. Next season with the nhl drafted guys gone (parekh will be back) will tell the tale of misa when he will be the show. And misa won or tied three games with goals in the last 10 seconds. Just wait and see when he has as draft future at stake next season to see the full misa sample. Misa MEM. CUP CHAMP will be alright. And mcd and jt's teams were garbage when they got there. They had to be the scoring show.
@MikeBartner3 ай бұрын
I can't buy that excuse for the production considering Parekh as a defenseman put up insane almost 1.5 PPG numbers. If Misa is this amazing no doubt top prospect with the talent on Saginaw, he should've at least crossed the 80 point mark.
@stevenbauer47993 ай бұрын
@@MikeBartner Excuse? You using parekh's (a year older) ppg in his draft year to downplay misa's ppg not in his draft year is a lame excuse. parekh had the most important part or point guard of the team-run the offense/pp. That shows you just watch a few highlights to come up with this 'top 10' who has no idea how spirit were constructed and how misa was well shielded for mem. cup run. Maybe watch a whole season, playoff, and mem. cup before making these 'rankings'. And spirit just drafted an nhl drafted guy in chl import draft chernyosov plus added a u of m decommit. why do you think that is? Or have d. drinkell who built the mem. cup champ better explain that to you. I guess spirit could have just put misa out there to cherry pick 50 g 100+ pts. like jt did but then again they were about winning. jt never has been. Just a scorer only who has never won anything. And go and look at jt's numbers after the 70 g second season. They went way down year 3-4 yet he still went no. one.

it’s not even so much that he got worse, it’s that other prospects have improved a lot more this season and he sort of plateaued as Mike suggested - guys like Hagens and Martone took big steps this season to separate themselves as clear cut top 3 prospects in this draft at this point
