Asked Pronman about him, here's his thoughts.
Seriously Pronman is a great follow, I thought my question may have been too broad, but he answers pretty much any question I've had regarding prospects.
Juolevi declined trying out for the Finnish Junior team to prepare for the Canucks' camp?
Interesting, sounds like he may be serious about trying to crack the roster this season.
Not really,
think some residual disappointment in Jake might be leaking over into frustration with all of our prospects at the moment. Just no real star talent as of right now.
Man I desperately want a top 5 pick this year.
Maybe individuals maintain their opinion but individuals on these boards have varying opinions on +/- and thereby use it differently on these boards. Such are the dangers of generalizing CDC into one entity.
Yea, but who knows how guys will step up. Not something easy to predict, that's for sure. Getting more and more excited for the draft this year though, hoping JB can work a little deadline or draft day magic as well.
Well, I believe they HAD hope, but quickly diminishing I'd imagine. Maybe even the hope they had in prospects might have been a bit high, but who knows, you can only hope they have an idea of where they are heading now.
