Ovechkin won't pass Sid at #1. They are pretty much dead even and Sid is almost 2 full years younger. Is Lundqvist even considered a prospect? The guy is 4-6 years older than most of the other guys on the list.
You could say the same about Steen and Richards, and Steen got the nod, despite being the older one. I'm not saying I know who will get the #1 slot, but age doesn't seem to be that big of a factor in these.ryz said:Ovechkin won't pass Sid at #1.

He's turning 24 within a few weeks. I find it difficult to rate him alongside 18-21 yr olds at that age.xander said:he's 23.
Yea.. because he is one WHOLE YEAR older than Lehtonen... but i forgot.. Kari was a regular in SM-liiga as a 17-year old.. so he still counts more as a prospect.ryz said:Is Lundqvist even considered a prospect? The guy is 4-6 years older than most of the other guys on the list.
So there's 1 other older guy. How can you compare him to 18-21 yr old Crosby, Ovechkin, Phaneuf and Malkin?An Ape called Yoko said:Yea.. because he is one WHOLE YEAR older than Lehtonen... but i forgot.. Kari was a regular in SM-liiga as a 17-year old.. so he still counts more as a prospect.
