It's looking right now like Bjork has the highest chance to make the NHL of any of our wingers. Not really sure how you have DeBrusk beating him out and am guessing you're basically just assuming that DeBrusk is better because he played in a professional league last year. I think Bjork is better than Heinen and Debrusk by a wide margin. Bjork could get AHL time, but he'd likely demolish the league in a matter of 10 to 15 games, proving he was NHL ready. I think he signed with us because we told him he would be in the competition for a top 9 role this season. He's done nothing but impress everyone who's watched him thus far. I don't understand how that equates to him losing the battle against either Heinen or DeBrusk. Bjork is in the lead right now with all the momentum he's created. Heinen is slightly behind, but also a solid option. DeBrusk has the longest odds and although he's a good player, is likely going to be a "go-to" guy on the P Bruins. This will only be his 2nd AHL season and he regressed in the CHL the year after he was drafted. It would be a better option to see if he can build on his first year of experience and prove he's gotten better. I think he's good, but he's the least ready of the 3 to be depended on in the big league.
