The Cup Rookie Discussion!

[dimmyliak7]

Started this thread up, because i was looking through my cards and thought to myself sure /99 cup rookies are sought after, great and all but..... wheres the love for the /249's?

Back to the discussion! Which /249's are the most sought after in your opinions? Starting it way back in 05. Also! Which do you think will turn out to be real steals and trend upwards in Cup rookie rankings!

Ill start, for me i think a couple that may trend up are Kevin Fiala as well as Burakovsky, i think these will be tremendous players in the near future. For me personally i do i believe Tarasenko's is the most sought after /249 of them all.

Lets hear it!

This guy right here is in my opinion the best /249 of them All:

 

[dimmyliak7]

Agreed!

 

[forsberg21]

No love for Erik Karlsson or Jamie Benn?

They are in the back of mind for sure. EK is trending upwards and gaining more attraction for his higher end rookies imo.

+1

Draistl might become one soon

I think of these guys:

Getzlaf (199)
Lundqvist (199)
Shea Weber
Erik Karlsson
Claude Giroux
Tarasenko
Filip Forsberg
Matt Stone

 

[Iceman]

Parise? Perry? Out of 199 I know but at least not the SP ones.

 

[g-force]

Kuznetsov merits a mention in these.

 

[dimmyliak7]

Dark Horsing Rakell as an up and comer as well.

Shea Weber
Erik Karlsson
Claude Giroux
Tarasenko
Filip Forsberg
Matt Stone

Is Matt Stone any good :snapout:

 

[punkoholic]

Does anyone know why Nikita Kucherov doesn't have a Cup rc? IMO that would have been a great rc to have.

He was hurt towards the end of the season but I had him most of the year in my Yahoo pool and he was killing it. He probably hasn't earned himself a spot on that list yet though, yer right.

I think he was one of the guys whose cards went missing and UD may still or may have remade them? I'm not sure, could be way off but same thing happened with Monahan's /99's.

 

[gomaz]

Pavelski and Tuukka too right?

 

[gomaz]

Cant sleep...

Marchand, Couture?

 

[dimmyliak7]

Really? Kucherov was suppose to have a cup card? Did not know that, for sure would of been on my bucket list.

As far Kuznetsov, as someone did mention i believe he will only get better, he is still young and has not entered his prime.

 

[Superdoup]

Matt Murray is listed pretty high on BV. Shane Gosti also!

 

[C55]

My top 10 at the moment:

Perry
Getzlaf
Lundqvist
Keith AU
Rask
Giroux
Benn
Karlsson
Hedman or Marchand
Tarasenko
