Dobber, where do you have Dmitri Buchelnikov rated? He was recently named most outstanding forward of the Sochi U25 Hockey Tournament.

  Thanks! He sits at 245

Surprised to see Frost so high on the board still. No longer in my top 30, not to say he won’t breakthrough at some point and injuries & Covid are significant in his situation bit 5 years post draft with no meaningful advancement for me & hurried behind Couturier & Hayes with Laughton waiting in the wings to move from his LW to C if he doesn’t step up soon.

  I think he’s moving along at an expected and acceptable curve. Injuries just delayed things. If we don’t see a sign this season, then he’ll tumble. But you can’t beat the wait time – he’s in the NHL right now.

On his player profile, Shane Wright has a fatasy upside of 9.5, which implies a 95 point maximum whereas the guide gives him a 75 pt upside, which is it? I’m confused…

  The Guide is me. The DobberProspects site is the team at DobberProspects. We usually agree, on this we don’t Though in hindsight I should have given him 80.
