I'm a bit confused about Bichsel. I haven't seen much at all that indicates to me he'll be anything more than at best a #4 with a mean streak, in the mold of a guy like Gudas. That's fine, but I view that as his peak, and I don't see how that compares favorably to Stankoven or Bourque.
Motherf***er you better put some respek on his name.Who is voting Justin Ertel and Why?
I’m choosing optimism and that feels like a Walmart version of Mo Seider, which I’d like. Bottom end top pairing guy, high end top 4 guy. Was really impressed with him at the WJC and happily surprised that he’s being brought over to play in the American. Think he’s got more than we thought he did on draft night.I'm a bit confused about Bichsel.

You son of a bitch, i’m in.Motherf***er you better put some respek on his name.
Also, just click on the damn red part where it has the number next to the name and it'll tell you who voted for who.
I mean the first 3 rankings are gonna be landslides anyway, might as well hop on the Ertel trainYou son of a bitch, i’m in.
I'm a least a little worried that Bischel might suck and play a lot of NHL minutes anyways. Coaches get pretty infatuated with that body type and tend to play guys like that a lot even when they're struggling; Gudbranson and Zadorov spring to mind.
The other concern is that Bischel just hasn't played much hockey, he's averaged less then 12 minutes a night with Leksands over the past couple years. There might be a big learning curve with him. It might be something like an Oleksiak situation where he eventually becomes a good defenseman but they have to go through plenty of crappy years to get there.
That's maybe more pessimistic then I'm trying to be. In fairness, I think Bischel could be really good too. But, I just think the range of outcomes is more worrying then it is with Bourque. Mavrik could definitely bust, but I feel like that would look more like Sam Steel 2.0 where he's just kinda there but not actively harming the team.
