I’ve been waiting too long for Niemala. Hope he gets a real shot this year

Really hoping it’s Topi Time this season. Guy looked unreal for the Fins and had a great season when he finally came to NA.

Quillan is really low on that list.

Why don’t I hear more about Niemala? He’s our #1 Defensive prospect, had a great last couple seasons both international and in the AHL, and yet I barely hear the guy mentioned. Anyone who watches the Marlies regularly care to chime in? Would love to hear about how he has progressed and how he has looked on NA ice.
Edit: great last couple season judging off of highlights and stats, haven’t been watching him enough to know if the international hype and good AHL numbers are translating to a great player or are a bit inflated

Would want to lean on someone else’s expertise here because I really don’t know. Does Hildeby have a good chance at being number 1 at his current pace?

We need to rebuild the team and not around “stars” with egos

Minten and Danford ahead of Grebyonkin is insane stuff.

Sad to see that Villeneuve has regressed. Really hope Chadwick can turn into something decent in the future, hopefully he can learn to start playing a little more physical.

Hard time believing that Webber is that low
