Well when you throw in a "G" floor and then skip from 12th floor to 14th floor I'm wondering if a makeup call was involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a result of being the go-to player on a decent team in a weaker MHL league or could be a sign he's an animal with the puck. I think the MHL is really comparable do say the Q but maybe I am wrong there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen over the years, the NHLe factor of the MHL is ~0.166 versus the QMJHL in the ~0.25-0.28 range. MHL is still "the top junior league" in Russia, but I have a feeling the bad teams are worse and the bad players are worse, leading to stat inflation (or it being an easier league to play in). Doesn't mean NHL-worthy gems can't be found. And it's likely the sample sizes are small for the MHL. And NHLe trends tend to get broken by the extremely talented outliers anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted July 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) I had him 40th on my board. Also the NHLNetwrok had him 38th on their consensus board on their draft coverage.

nfreeman Posted July 25, 2021 Report Share Posted July 25, 2021 Forton was really glowing about Polty in his presser yesterday. Said he sees him as a legit NHL power forward with high skill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted July 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 The biggest questions with the Russians is will they come over and when?

I think that if the players can make the NHL team that it's not a concern (primarily because the NHL can offer better contracts and salaries long term than the KHL) but it may be an issue to get sent down to Rochester to develop. We will see. Looks like some great skills on these Russian players selected. I agree we may be waiting a couple of years at least. Time will tell.
