I think Addison has the bigger upside and hits the NHL quicker.
Who do you think hits the NHL quicker out of these 2 D prospects?
Which one do you think has the higher ceiling and more opportunity with their current teams?

I think Addison has the bigger upside and hits the NHL quicker.

I'd give Addison the edge in upside but I think he's at least another year out. Perunovich on the other hand should be playing a good portion of the season with the Blues and likely will see some significant pp2 time. I'd probably take Perunovich of the two since I think their upsides are pretty close anyways.

I think they are both at least a year away from the NHL. I think Perunovich has the higher upside so I would take him.
Addison I think is perceived to have the higher upside, and that might be true, but what Perunovich did in the NCAA is pretty impressive. I think these guys are close. I'll stay with the majority and say Addison has higher upside but I think Perunovich makes a race out of it. Things don't get any easier to figure out when looking at opportunity and "NHL readiness". Both these guys are their respective teams top D prospects, so a dead heat there. When you look at both the Blues and the Wild's back ends, there is definitely opportunity there for both of these guys but I have to give the edge to Addison here, I think the Blues back end looks more robust now than the Wild's. However, Addison is only 19. Is he ready to take full advantage of opportunity? Perunovich is 21 with 3 years of NCAA under his belt. In this respect I think Perunovich is more NHL ready than Addison but whether he gets the opportunity is the million dollar question.

I think they're close but Perunovich is probably a year or two ahead of Addison, so next year you could trade Peru for Addison+
