My 2017 list:

Rank your best 5 prospects:
1. Cale Makar
2. Vlad Kamenev
3. Jordan Greenway
4. Nikita Scherbak
5. Rasmus Asplund




Who are your 3 most underrated prospects?
1. Andreas Johnsson
2. Maxim Mamin
3. Jayce Hawryluk

Bolded hasn't worked out too well from 2017...

- 2 of 3 "under-rated" prospects are now full time NHLers.

- 2 of 5 top prospects are almost certain to have good careers (greenway/makar) while kamenev and Asplund are still question marks...kamenev due to injury.

Mamin and scherbak have both headed back to russia.

[KapG]

Tippet
McLeod
Pierre Olivier Joseph
Ikonen
Josh brook

Sleeper prospect:

Kevin Roy

Now looking at:

2020 1st rounder
Owen Tippett
Matthew Boldy
Ryan Merkley
Lucas Elvenes
Shane Pinto
Jacob Pelletier
Simon Holmstrom
Vladislav Firstov
Josh Brooks
Pierre Olivier Joseph
Cale Fleury
Logan Stanley
Luke Martin
Kotkansalo
Ikonen
Cole Fonstad
Philip Kemp


Then there’s a guy like Lias Andersson who would slot in after my top 4 there somewhere around Pelletier/firstov/holmstrom. Maybe he isn’t a prospect though.

2019

Top 5
Jordan Kyrou
Ryan Poehling
Ryan Lindgren
William Borgen
Jeremy Lauzon

Underrated
Mason Marchment
Dennis Gilbert
Riley Stillman

Anderson and Sikura both just miss with 33/34GP and 19 year old Svech is still going to get a lot better.

Lol at Cirelli 5th and Sikura 1st in 2017. Most impressed that all 6 prospects I mentioned as underrated have managed to play in the NHL at some point.

Top 5
Kevin Bahl
Nikita Alexandrov
Nicholas Caamano
Dennis Gilbert
William Borgen

Underrated
Jordan Spence
Dimitri Voronkov
Tyler Tucker

Looking pretty thin, but traded my top 2 from last year and graduated Lindgren, Stillman, Lauzon. Need to get some talent with my two 3rds and two 4ths this year.

[Matthew]

Who cares what ur farm looks like while ur winning cups tho.

More value in the waiver draft than mid entry draft imo.
