Podkolzin either gets underrated or overrated. I remember the subset of Canuck fans who thought he was a better prospect than Brzustewicz. He's clearly not. Then there is the subset who think he's waiver fodder. He's clearly not. He'll be a steady 3rd line wing in the NHL one day. Solid signing.
Brzustewicz may never sniff the NHL. He's either a top 4 offence first dman with some PP upside or he will spend his career in the AHL. He simply doesn't defend well enough. Podkolzin could easily be a better NHL'er than Brz.
