having krav at 16 and not even having Wahlstrom is laughable unless he doesnt consider him a prospect anymore

Craig Button is an idiot. QB at 17? Cole caufield at 2? Nick Robertson ahead of guys like Perfetti, Jarvis or York? I think TSN is vastly superior to sportsnet, but having Button as the head Scouting Analyst is pretty rough.

I was shocked too. Newhook should be at least top 20

He has Amirov #57 so I wouldn't say it is completely biased

This list seems like it was solely based on how these guys have played in 2021, which explains why there are so many guys who played in the NCAA on top, since they were the only ones who have played for the whole year. The problem is most of the guys in the CHL have barely played and they are much lower on the list because of it, and that doesn't really make for an accurate ranking.

this list is horrible. POJ...are you kidding me. He's still hanging out in the AHL because he got benched when he went to the NHL. Why does that matter. Like the vast majority of his draft class is already in the NHL and sticking.
You can't have guys who are falling behind their draft class as "top prospects" if they were ever that, they'd be playing.
And I'm saying that as a penguins fan!

So he has POJ on here, but no Zegras? No Drysdale? Makes no sense.


Button has some weird rankings. I like seeing Heinola top 15 though....

Sad when JJ Peterka is a better prospect than our 1st round, 8th OA pick of Jack Quinn. He didn't even make the cut lol. JJ is not a top 50 prospect imo, maybe he's 50th but he is not better than McMichael or Tomasino etc

Zegras not in top-50 has got to be a mistake.
I don’t even know where to begin on his d-man order.

(And nice to see Jack Quinn off these lists. How that guy ever got into top-10 is beyond me)

Glad he has Broberg so high, he is going to very good for very long time for the Oilers, but although should Holloway be that high.

Its craig buttons list. So its probably just as accurate as a list made up by mike milbury or jason botterill.
