Description

DESCRIPTION OF TIERS BELOW

THESE RANKINGS ARE SUBJECTIVE AND PLAYERS CEILINGS (NOT FLOORS)
T1 - Franchise Altering Prospect, no words needed
T2 - Elite Level, truly special, Number one guy
T3 - Star, almost special, top line player/ top pairing guy
T4 - Top End Talent, but not special, top 6f/ 4d material
T5 - Key Player but not top end, middle 6f/ 2nd pairing
T6 - Useful bottom 6f/ bottom 4d
T7 - Long shots, projects

To clarify, these example are not exact.
Hertl I used as T3 because he is a guy who can be your number one but would be better as a "number 2". Like if you need him to be your 1C he can be and he could even steal the 1C on his own. So he's ahead of Sean but thats not a slight.

Monahan isnt a bad player, I used him for T4 because I see Sean as a 2C not a 1C or 3C. Ellers is a great 3C who is ideally used in your middle 6 but hes very good as to why he is T5 (below Sean). Tierney is a great bottom 6 player who CAN be like Ellers, but is more suited for that bottom 6 player who can provide quality time if needed to be relied on more. T7 is guys like Nieto or Martin - NHL players but have not been able to secure full time jobs with term.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS:

Why is Ozzy so high?
- Ozzy looked really really good for the Sharks. I mean these rankings are based on ceilings. Is it bold to say he'll be AS GOOD AS HERTL? Yes but I think he does so much well and you can see he learns on the fly and trys to adjust to his recommendations. He wants to shoot the puck more? You can see hes worked on it, his motor is still on fire and he's showing some IQ development that makes me believe more and more that he not only has a great base and tools but is developing some finesse to add to these plus his motor is irreplaceable. If he can get stronger, keep developing and working in SJ I see this kid being a top line complimentary piece. He is not gonna get 90 points but I could see him racking up 50 points consistently and throwing some big hit numbers and two way responsibilities (PK and PP2).

Merkley...
- Merkley looked really good. If you asked me if Merkley would make the NHL even just a week ago I woulda said no (and I did multiple times in the past months). But Merkley looked quite good and he's clearly not only put in the work but you can see he's learned a lot. He looks smarter, bigger, and more conscious of what he needs to do to become not just an NHL player but what he needs to do to flourish. He's never gonna be a Hedman type two way guy. But if he can keep cleaning up his game, stay steady and strong he could be like Hamilton. A valued OFD. He still isnt set for the NHL imo but he's proved me wrong this camp so lets see if that continues.

Robins!
- Robins is a ton of fun. I've slept on him but he looks like what a lot of fans praise, he does look like a kid who could become a real good NHL'er.

Cardwell
- I really liked watching Cardwell. He's not a star in the making like some of our other prospects but I did feel like he was noticeable and a guy to keep an eye on.

Hatakka Kniazev
- Santeri Hatakka looks like a guy WHO WILL make the NHL whereas Kniazev looks like a guy who COULD make the NHL. Where they differ is; Hatakka could be good, but Kniazev could be GREAT.

I have a feeling that there is some significant overrating of many prospects here
