Will Borgen - Sleeper Pick

[LGR4GM]

I love Vogl and Hoppe because they do write some good stuff. After his team won the 3v3 tourney at camp I was thinking about Borgen and Hoppe didn't disappoint.

 

So with 1 NCAA season under his belt and his stock rising fast, what do you think William Borgen will end up as? Top 4? Top 6? AHL guy? Roll the dice it is summer and i like young William

Because Paul Bettany and because the character is William

World juniors, that's something. Obviously he has the potential to be a good one

I'm surprised this thread isn't getting more traction. The kid went from high school, to college to the US WJr team in just months and never stopped improving. This is a huge value pick who I expect to be signed after this coming season.

 

From a Sabres standpoint, I'm really impressed with the quality GMTM and his staff's later draft picks. From 2015 you also have Estephan who blossomed last year also and might be one of our best center prospect right now. Also Hagel and Glotov look like this years' Estephan based on their performance in development camp.

There was a time not so long ago when many were intrigued about the potential of Dan Catenacci.

Every year, a few deeper picks do something that catches your attention. Most of them never make it.

 

WJC is a big indicator for me, so Borgen is punching out of his weight class better than most. Hope that continues.

Borgen had a strong WJC back in January, so I'm not surprised he is considered a nicely developing prospect. 

 

GO SABRES!!!

Just for fun I went back and looked the WJC rosters from 2010 to see how many were NHLers now and there are more than a few, Including Cam Fowler

Luke Adam too!

I would like to see him complete school and become FA after August 15th. It's in the CBA, so he deserves the right to maximize his career.

If he can complete 3 years of school this summer. G-d bless him.

Lol, he did score goals in the NHL! Or was it a goal?

This is easily one of the worst trolling attempts I've ever seen.

I thought it was ok the Russian judge gave him a 5 though.

Borgen, Fiorentino, Estephan, Hagel, these are all sleeper picks.

As in, wake me up when they do something :)

Why thank you. I try my best.

 

But seriously, if we were in Nashville's shoes, this board would have imploded.
