1. I don't think it's been long enough to see who's a bust, at this point we can only tell who's slow getting going. And I would put Pyatt into that category.
2 and 3. For both I have to say Matt Duchene. this kid is only 18, and he has incredible legs. If you ever watch a game where he has the puck alot, you'll notice that it usually takes 3 defenders to knock him down and/or take away the puck, which is very reminiscent of Forsberg. He's got good hands, too. He has an incredible wrist shot and good vision on the ice. Another good sign is that Duchene made the team the first year, and not only that, but he often centers the first line; even Sakic spent a year in junior after being drafted.
4. ooh, thats a toughie. I'd have to say James van Riemsdyk, or Justin Abdelkader.
