[SensBrawler]

Thanks to everyone who voted.

Feel free to post your own lists if you would like to.

 

[Benttheknee]

We should all get gold stars for the 2013 list.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Lazar, Stone, Ceci, Pageau.......that's one hell of an impressive graduation list for the year.

...and even more impressive that our remaining top 30 still has strong quality and quantity to it.

 

[BigBush*]

We have some really good prospects. No real high end prospects, but like 10 very solid ones.

I think Chabot should be #1. I also like Puempel but would take every other player in the top 5 ahead of him, possibly also Chaplick, Gagne, and Lindberg

 

[JFG]

The links of lists 2012 and older are dead for me. How can I view them?

 

[SlapJack]

We should all get gold stars for the 2013 list.

That year is something to consider when looking at the current prospect pool. When you see 8 of the top 12 as solid players on the roster right now and 2 others on the cusp, that's very impressive and also a huge blow to the pool.

Of the remaining 2 players, one netted us another great prospect (Lehner for White), the other faded away but was the only guy on the list that wasn't drafted by Ottawa (Conacher).

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

My own top 10 (tear it apart if you want.. it's just one guy's opinion):

1. White
2. Chabot
(^wooo shiny new toys!!)
3. O'Connor
4. Paul
(3 and 4 are interchangeable)
5. Puempel
6. Lindberg
7. Prince
8. Chlapik
9. Wikstrand
10. Gagne
(9 and 10 interchangeable)

 

[Xspyrit]

Also for fun as it changes every 6 months lol :

1. Chabot
2. Paul
3. White
4. O'connor
5. Puempel
6. Prince
7. Lindberg
8. Wikstrand
9. Chlapik
10. Gagne
11. Dzingel
12. Hogberg
13. Claesson
14. McCormick
15. Perron
16. Harpur
17. Jaros
18. Ahl
19. Englund
20. Schneider

At least 10 NHLers in that list, and half of them will be above average.

Lazar, Stone, Ceci, Pageau.......that's one hell of an impressive graduation list for the year.

...and even more impressive that our remaining top 30 still has strong quality and quantity to it.

I really really like the top-22, very solid and super underrated.

What is amazing is that the highest pick is Chabot, a 18th overall pick. That's the reason why this pool is so underrated, people check draft positions first.

Sens don't have the glorified top-10 picks like some other teams, but still that pool would beat most teams pools in tournaments.

 

[Lehner]

Just saw this, great work man. Takes a lot of time to do this.
