Team: 2020-21 New York Rangers

Initial Creation Date: Dec. 15, 2020

Published: Dec. 15, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Also included any 1st year/young players, as well.

Tiers 1-3 are locks for NHL players, ranging in impact. Tiers 4-5 I see little chance of NHL time.

Players ranked by potential within their tiers.

Tier 1 = LW -- Elite level prospect
Tier 2 = C -- High Top 6/Top 4 potential
Tier 3 = RW -- Bottom 6 (Ranging from Pretty Good 3rd liner to consistent ice time 4th liner) or 5-7th NHL D-man
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tier 4 = LD -- Needs to do more to prove they can carve out some NHL time. Not likely
Tier 5 = RD -- Won't see NHL time in my opinion. (Honestly stopped here. If they aren’t listed, they need work, luck and more luck to be anything more than a 4th line call up for 2 games during their career.)

Tier 6 = G -- Goalie rankings

Jones and Barron go up to tier three and Wall is maybe ab ove Garand, but otherwise pretty solid.

Neither Kakko nor Fox are prospects anymore with a full season under their belts and they wouldn't fit in the first tier of these pyramids anyway.

Okay rangers fans, you can’t have it both ways. You can’t tell me that fox is a combo between Scott stevens and Bobby Orr, a lock for the Norris, and simultaneously call him a prospect.

You think you have that many prospects right now that are locks to play consistently in the NHL??? I'd say only a couple of the guys from tier 3 are a lock whatsoever to play consistent NHL time. I mean how is Tarnstrom, a 3rd round pick from the 2020 draft, or Cuylle, a late 2nd rounder from the 2020 draft a lock to play in the NHL lol

Player v Prospect. Once a player 25 games in a season he is no longer eligible for The Calder Trophy. So 25 games in a season where I draw the line between player and prospect. What do you guys think?

I like the idea of Calder Trophy eligibility being the line. Has something to do with age as well.

Yeah the age is 26 and the 3rd hurdle is 6 or more games in the 2 previous seasons. I like it because it's constant and it's completely objective.

These guys have played full season(s). Fox (1), Chytil (2), Howden (2), Lindgren (1) have all played more than usual " prospects ", which they aren't. Shesterkin has only 12 GP but it's kind of obvious he'll stay in the NHL. He's a rookie but definitely not a prospect.
