I imagine Podkolzin will fall and some of the USNTDP players will rise... also, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kakko take the #1 spot based on the verbal in the article and based on the World Championship tournament he's having right now. Here are some comments from actual NHL scouts:

“The difference for us, right now, is razor thin,” said one NHL team head scout. “It’s almost a coin flip, pretty much a dead heat. Really close. Call it Hughes at 51 per cent, Kakko at 49 per cent. It’s that close and that could change.”

“It’s really too bad they’re not going head to head at U-18,” another NHL team head scout said. “That would have been a great measuring stick, a level playing field.”

“No. 1 is still very much up for grabs,” said a third NHL team scout.
