Prospect Info: Rangers Prospect poll: #16

[Beacon]

LW Malte Stromwall won round 15 in tiebreaker voting. C Brad Morrison is added to the poll.

WHO IS A PROSPECT: We can't all have different standards based on what we each want personally, so we follow HF rules. The standard for what's a prospect is here: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/whatmakesaprospect


I specifically want to point out that Paliotta and Hrivik are eligible as prospects since they played under 65 games. Every year there are people who declare something like, "I don't consider Buchnevich to be a prospect because he's guaranteed to play on the Rangers." That is not the standard. We cannot have everyone follow a difference standard because then the results will be meaningless. By HF standards, McIlrath and others I listed are eligible, therefore they will count as prospects here.

Please write-in who you think should be added to the poll.

Add Hrivik because he's very likely to play in the NHL, particularly with expansion coming next season.

Voted for Rambo because he's doing well in Hartford and has a terrific shot.

I wish people would stop calling Tambellini "Rambo". His nickname is "Tambo", lol.

If his nickname is already Tambo, and he's a goal-scorer/shooter, then it's a very small step to go to Rambo

Small step or not, it's still wrong

His twitter is @atambo9 , and his 'mates call him Tambo.

Not sure why Zborovskiy gets so little love around here. Originally a third round pick and then his value only went up because he improved last season, did well in Traverse and now he's scoring almost a point per game, which is good for a 6-foot-4 defenseman. He also leads the WHL in +/-. He's not McIlrath-tough, but he doesn't shy away from contact and plays a pretty physical game. A lot of it was missed in Traverse because he's a teenager and his body didn't fully fill out, so it was difficult for him to be overly physical against adults, but he plays pretty tough against kids his own age, and once his body fills out, Zboro will be able and willing to be tough with his opponents.

The combination of size, hard shot and generally intelligent play should make him a prospect to watch. Instead, he seems to be ignored here.
