You would need to add the indispensable experience of being a ski-bum, bouncer and river guide before you can aspire to that honorable position. - Whiskey-Tango
Mittelstadt should hopefully be right around our pick. I'm very torn on him however.
"An electric offensive presence on the ice, Casey Mittelstadt brings the complete package of speed, skill, and hockey sense. He competes hard with every shift, and has the dynamic puck skills to keep up with his creativity, which is a hallmark of his game...."
On one hand, he sounds like everything we need, but on the other, it's hard to get a read on the kid as the vast majority of his experience was accumulated in the U.S high school league
I kindof get a P.L.D vibe from him, where nobody really knows what he's got yet jumps up the rankings anyways... - Whiskey-Tango
I was high on PLD but still am so there is that.... but you can also look at what Mittelstadt did in the USDP, USHL this year and WJC tournement to see how he compares to his peers.

I think he is going to be a very good player. - belcherbd
All in all I feel the same way, yet hard to decipher where he will go.
Top 5?
Edit: i also see that he's committed to the College route
No hope of injecting him into next years line-up, for better or worse.

I take a look at the Canucks' position compared to last year at the All-Star break, and I've got Bo's events for this weekend's Skills Competition, in the new blog:
