Re: Demko - what I've read is that why he's a very legit prospect, he's not NHL ready yet (and that was coming from Vancouver scouts). I wouldn't put a ton of faith into him producing next year.
The fact that Gusev has never come over...I just think it's a huge gamble to be counting on him.
And Heiskanen - I haven't followed him closely. But what I can say is he shoots left and Klingberg shoots right. So if he can find his way on PP1, anything can happen, I suppose. But that is one heck of an if...
