Personally, I'd put Blomqvist at #3. He's gonna be a stud.

Agreed, and I think Poulin may be more of a B right now with the ability to climb back up depending on how this season goes for him.

Belliveau might be ahead of Laatsch in my opinion.

I think he'd would, but I can see an argument for him not making it. He's already 24 and is pretty small for an NHLer. He's led the WBS Pens in scoring the past 2 seasons, but there's genuine reason to question how much better he's going to get and if he's going to be able to have an impact at the NHL level.

I knew someone was missing lol. Yeah, I'd rank him as the most likely to win a spot out of camp. He's IMO the most intriguing prospect.

Poulin obviously had a lot of personal stuff going on his life that he had to sort, so we don't really know how much, if any of it, affected his play in WBS. I'm hoping sorting out his stuff has given him new drive.

I see his window as pretty much closed. It’s a shame, really. wonder what he could’ve done if we experimented with him in the top 6

I think he could be a great middle 6 play driving forward. I personally see him at LW but he could play C too. Hopefully now he’s over his off ice issues and can live up to the potential of the guy we drafted in 2019. Only time will tell
