The Athletic just graded the Stars prospects as 31st in the league and Bischel is the reason they weren’t ranked last. I think it’s because so many of their prospects graduated to the NHL and also because Nill sees prospects differently than National media would project. There are other examples of guys like Bäck who don’t get much love from national scouts and media rankings but Nill finds a way to groom them in pros. I can’t tell if it’s more of his keen eye for talent potential or his development approach. I’m sure a little bit of both, but either way it continues to surprise how well we do with our draft picks.
