were guys like Prince, Puempel, and Noessen close to making the list?

not arguing with your ranking, more just curious to know where you think the sens prospects rank in the bigger picture.

Puempel was, but I don't like that he's extremely inconsistent and one dimensional. As for Prince and Noesen they're both American so they'll qualify when I do a top-10 American's in the CHL list.

I wish people would read the first paragraph Americans or Europeans aren't on this list. The Euro's are on their countries listing and I'm going to do the top-10 Americans in the CHL soon.

I guess I overlooked the word "Canadian" in the title.

I think people don't read your paragraphs because it gets to you.

I always thought he would skate faster if he didn't have 2 parachutes for ears.

Think Schenn would skate faster if he wasn't looking at himself in the mirror all the time?

He just looks to see if that Proactiv cream is working yet.

It isn't.

Ellis either has it or he doesn't. You don't need size to play the way he does. Just hope he is a bit better than Bergeron in his own end.

No matter how strong you are on your skates, it wouldn't take much for the 6'-4" + 240lbs players to toss him aside.

I've never seeing Koekkoek is action but i've also heard he has a little bit of a mean streak.

Sure, but I don't think he's a player that is going to be trying to split the d. If his offense is that good he'll be able to translate it, especially on the PP when d-men are rarely touched.

I am a guy who wants to see him in the NHL, and succeed. I like em' if he's paired with the right guy too I can see him being effective in the NHL.

Interesting. Thats slightly upsetting considering Gaunce was on the board when the Flyers picked.

It made some sense. With the amount of extremely talented centers you guys hoard it's good to take a chance on Laughton who can be a great two-way 3rd line center with a lot of grit.
