Verhoeff is getting lots of love Probably not. Part of his drop is also the rising of Verhoeff who has the size and positional value that teams covet. That all said, if McKenna was putting up 40pts in his first 20 chl games, I think he'd have kept that top spot. Scouts are really concerned about McKenna translating to the NHL and also winger is less valuable than C or D, especially RHD. McKenna has lots of great offensive ideas but can he bring his game more in line with the nhl style? You can't deke a 6'4" defender who can lean on you. Sure sometimes you can but most plays involve you in a battle on the wall and then bringing it into the center, McKenna needs better battle imo.

The stats literally give you information about what happening on the ice.

Stenberg is on track to have the best SHL draft year this century. Daniel Sedin managed to put up 21g, 21a, for 42pts in 50games way back in 1998. No one has done anything like that since. If you look at ppg, only Nylander 20pts in 21 SHL games is close to Stenberg who has 22pts in 23games. If Stenberg were to maintain this pace and put up 49pts in 52 SHL games, he would be atop the 17 or 18yr old SHL player list by 7 more pts than Sedin and 10 more pts than #2 Naslund. What I am saying is that what Ivar Stenberg is currently doing as an 18yr old in the SHL is unprecedented. One more note, is that Stenberg plays for Frolunda, which is Dahlin's SHL team and he would have practiced with them last month. Also Stenberg currently leads Frolunda in points. That's pretty crazy that an 18yr old prospect leads an SHL team in points. Before you ask, defensively Stenberg is good, really good.
