Anaheim being this low is criminal. I can't take this list seriously based on seeing where Anaheim is. I am sure there are others, but I stopped looking once I saw Anaheim in the 20s.

I would say Leafs are low 20's. They are better than 28th but they are definitely worse than middle of the pack.

Why? Carlsson, Luneau, Mintyukov all graduated for me. Besides Zellweger they dont have any A guys.

Anaheim has Carlsson, Mintyukov, and Lundeau graduated.

Seattle has so many depth guys plus Wright, Rehkopf, Firkus and Nyman who have all risen quite a big with great starts so far this year.

Every prospect who is currently called up from the NHL and has played 1+ game (excluding goalies) was excluded from my rankings, so a lot of teams like chicago dropped a lot.

I like Nikishin a lot but they have so many NCAA guys who are doing well because they are so old, and havent shown the growth i want to see. If Morrow and Blake were in the AHL right now, not even dominating or doing well but growing a lot I would have them ranked higher, but playing another year of NCAA for me isnt helping them as much as other forms of development imo

Knies and Robertson are no longer prospects for my rankings lol.

Cowan, Minten, Niemela are nice ig but Toronto has very little depth. None of those 3 are top 60 prospects for me.

Before this season I had Toronto 18th when I factored in Knies but still no robertson for the record. And using my forumla now, toronto would finish at 17th or 18th with just Knies being added back to this

Okay yeah that makes sense for sure and yeah those 3 are the only 3 worth mentioning so it’s lacking for sure

Ok I understand that. Where did you rank Hutson and Reinbacher in your full list ?

Also, don't forget Montreal have also Beck and Mesar (who is very suprising right now with 24 pts in 13 games).

Hutson 19, Reinbacher 8. Ive been very high on Reinbacher since beginning of last season (before he even got top 16 consideration for the draft). Im a BU fan so im quite high on Hutson. They are my 3rd and 7th ranked defenseman, too

Mesar i have as my 54th ranked skater, 39th for forwards. And Beck is 228 for skaters and 162 for forwards, which is honestly very low. I just never liked his game all that much.

Roy I have as my 22nd skater and 14th forward too btw

Okok, but maybe I belive you can rank Hutson maybe in the top 15, I strongly belive he have a massive potential to be very dominent offensively as a Dman. I wached few full games, and he's 1000% looks like Quinn Hughes, and it's not even a joke or a overhypement : the guy just have a franchise puck control.

I love his game and the clump of Olen Zellweger, Denton Mateychuk, Simon Edvinsson, and Lane Hutson are all so close. Like their point totals for me were all within .3, which ik you dont know my ranking system lol but thats insanely close. Like for the record the difference between my #1 player overall (Michkov) and #2 (Nemec) was 1.4, so those 4 were really a toss-up. Plus its hard comparing forwards and defenseman. But I mean the difference between #10 for all of my skaters and #25 is 1.1, so that gap is all so close too.

But I think hes gonna be incredible for MTL, and a top 4 of Hutson, Guhle, Reinbacher, Barron/Mailloux is scary. Plus Bogdan could be pushing it, Matheson has been really good, I could go on. MTL has a lot to look forward to

Jonathan Lekkerimäki and Willander are two staples of the pool, plus Brzustewicz and Raty bringing up the rear. Elias Pettersson and Bains are also two risers, 74 and 124 overall respectfully, who helped push them from middle of the pack to #10

I think Montreal defensive pipeline is a massive one, maybe one of the best in the league. But, that's my list about tradable or untouchable :

Untouchable : Guhle, Reinbacher and Hutson.

Maybe or maybe not : Barron, Mailloux and Xehkaj

Likely gonna leave : Harris.

About Matheson, he is great offensively, but need to be better defensively.

hey, I don't really know alot about prospect progression, could you tell me if any of these tampa guys have a shot at the NHL? Niko Huuhtanen, Maxim Groshev, Mikhail Shalagin, Dylan Duke, Isaac Howard, McKade Webster, Jack Thompson, Gage Goncalves, Felix Robert. If you don't know any of them then are there any prospects I should be looking out for?

My list for tampa has these guys: Maxim Groshev, Isaac Howard, and Niko Huuhtanen. They are my 75th, 79th and 80th top skater prospects. Then also Jack Thompson and Jack Finley who are around 150, Ethan Gauthier at 183, and Dylan Duke at 243.

Gage looks to be someone i missed, and id guess he will push for a spot in the NHL within a year or two. Havent watched his film but his stats look solid
