Prospect Info: 2021 Ducks Prospect Rankings #20

[MMC]

It's time for our annual Ducks prospect rankings. Each poll will run for 48 hours except in the case of a clear landslide. I will go to the top 25 and include a final poll where you can pick 5 honorable mentions. Please tell me who you want me to add in the replies. In the twentieth poll, I am voting for Tyson Hinds.

As always the list will define prospects as hockeysfuture does: NHL Prospect Criteria - Hockey's Future.

Damn this farm is deep

I think the next few for me are Hinds>Andersson>Sundsvik maybe?

Teaford listed that the Ducks top 5 are Zegras, Drysdale, McTavish, Dostal...and Groulx (in no particular order). He wrote it as though that's how the org seems them. That's not too far off what we've got.

True. And Groulx is definitely more NHL-ready than the other guys we have ahead of him, so that could be one reason for the difference.

Isn’t Guhle more of an AHL journeyman than a prospect at this point?

(Apologies if this was already addressed, I wasn’t around the board much during the summer).

I posted this in another thread, I thought Guhle was supposed to develop into a Top-4 dman? It's been so long since I saw him play.

Similar arguments were being made about Volkov regarding his status as a prospect. Seemed like the reasoning was due to his age (24) so I'm assuming the same would be applied to Guhle.

Sidenote, I took a gander at Guhle's page on eliteprospects and thought this excerpt was especially ironic: "Built like a tank; grueling play doesn't phase him."
