Zak MacMillan: #CBJ Top Prospects #8 Might be my hottest take on my prospects list but I’m listening to you the fans... also saw all the feedback on the last article in response to Sylvian Lefebvre, more to come on that

Meh I must be the only cbj fan not hyped for this guy, because winger depth is not something this organisation is missing , if he's good he's just part of a rotating door , a cog that replaces an eventual veteran who's contract will be up (Nyquist perhaps ), if he makes it, cool , if not thanks for trying, I'm indifferent in Marchenko's case .

We need a player like Marchenko to succeed... we need his high end talent to actualize in the NHL. The Blue Jackets turnaround from its historical failures will come from within. Let's hope this is one of those cogs!
