I didn't know where to put this, but here is Button's list of top prospects outside the NHL...

JJ Peterka makes the list, Jack Quinn doesn't.

Ryan Johnson also does make the list and I honestly think that is a mistake. He had a good season.

Button was a huge Quinn booster last year.

He's played 16 games since — 7 in the WJC and 9 in the AHL.

That's a drunken internet fan level "what-have-you-done-for-me-lately."

Button agrees with me? 

I change my mind Quinn will be way better

Quinn's had a mediocre season from all accounts

I thought you were arguing something different because your post said does*

sounded like you were saying him making it was a mistake, so the "he had a good year" read to me like "he had one good year slow down"

which brought me to Quinn. Not this year, but last year.

Portillo doesn't make this list but Dustin Wolf (the Sabres should have drafted him) does... this list kinda sucks.

Having our highest guy ranked 40th is a bit disconcerting but he does weirdly leave off Quinn like people said

I am not surprised that we start around the 40s. We draft like idiots and do it often and repeatedly. Nylander instead of Sergachev. Quinn instead of Rossi. Johnson instead of Robertson. It's a pattern of being cute and thinking we're smart as opposed to be cold and hard about prospects. They have major drafting issues and I think their analytics guy contributes to it. 

It probably won't happen this year but by next year I hope to have text analysis software for my job and I want to use that type of qualitative software with prospect reports to see what pops. I figure if I can put 4-5 written reports into text analysis it would be interesting.

JJ Peterka. #77

 

 

Just keep using the words controlled zone exits/entries...  please... please.

Now, just don't let the coach take that away from the player when they get to the NHL.

4 apples are nice, but I am far more interested in controlling the puck.

Nothing new, but I am really liking the diverse skill sets of Buffalo’s group of young D.

Dahlin-Jokiharju 

Bryson-Borgen

Samuelsson-Laaksonen

Johnson-Fitzgerald

This group contains a couple versions of pretty much every type of defenseman, and a nice mix of L and R, all still currently on their ELC.

We should be talking more about JJ Peterka. 

JJ has yet to sign, correct? When are we expecting him to come over?

Also, can't find a DEL NHLe calculator, how does JJ's 20 points in 30 DEL games compare to Quinn's 9 points in 15 AHL games?

How much better is the AHL than the DEL?

(Big fan of what I've seen from both these guys.)
