Description

Ok so I know it seems kind of pointless but I think it could be a very interesting way of determining the high end depth. If you feel your teams 3 best prospect is somebody who I did not mention please let me know. LW is the best prospect, C is the 2nd best prospect, RW is the third best prospect. Goalies will have a created player to represent them. To qualify as a prospect a player must be calder eligible.

Now if each prospect is rated equally based on their spot it is possible to determine which pools are more even than others among their top 3 and we can determine the strength of their top 3 as well compared to other pools. It is a flawed system because the best prospect at every position counts for 1 point and there is also the fact that the 3rd or 4th best prospect in some pools are better then the best in other pools. It can be used to determine how balanced the pool is however because if the locations of the rankings get continuously better, they have a more balanced pool. NJ goes 4-2-1 which means they have a more balanced pool than say montreal who goes 3-16-13 which means they are more top heavy having slafkovsky as their number 1.

Again if you have any disagreements with the rankings let me know. I am trying to not have any bias so I am lower on my team and higher on teams I do not prefer. Results may be a little skewed because of that but I personally think these are good rankings and the best I can put out without bias.

Pinto is 2nd and Greig is 3rd

I don’t consider pinto a prospect. He would have made the NHL jump if it weren’t for injury and imo would’ve been a good player as is. If pinto were in Greigs place, he is in the 14-16 range. I don’t believe pinto would be calder eligible and most of the sources I used to get an outline for this don’t consider pinto a prospect.

Yea it is an in between situation. In the end I went with what the majority of reference sources said and that was considering pinto not a prospect. He is a very exciting player however and I think he will make an immediate impact with the sens next year as a 3C that is able to step up come injury or if somebody is underperforming.

Peterka is our 3rd best prospect, not Savoie. I would put him right under Holtz. Yurov is very bold to have that high. His ceiling absolutely warrants it, but he hasn't put up numbers in a pro league like a lot of the guys below him have.
