OT: Rank Maple Leafs Top 10 prospect pre-draft

[Wendelstache]

wow, our prospect pool is garbage (besides nylander)

 

[Turk Broda]

1. Nylander
2. Brown
3. Percy
4. Leipsic
5. Leivo
6. Gauthier
7. Granberg
8. Johnson
9. Bibeau
10. Carrick/Verhaeghe/Loov/Soshnikov

Not a very deep group, especially considering how many consecutive years we have been out of the playoffs. But we will be adding some great pieces to this over the next three years.

Edit: I forgot Matt Finn, who I think should be on this list, maybe 5. (b)

Hockey News rated us 27th. It is what it is.

 

[TheGroceryStick]

Hockey News rated us 27th. It is what it is.

Yet we are probably 1-2 prospects away from being top 10 and a healthy 2 drafts from being top 5.

After trades, next year we could be:

1.Strome/Hanifin/Marner
2.Chychrun/Mathews
3.Nylander
4.Zacha/Werenski/Konecny (Kessel trade)
5.Boeser/Sprong/Kylington/Bracco (Nsh)
6.Brown
7.Leipsic
8.Johnson
9. Percy
10. Gauthier

Don't care what anyone says but that is one ****** group of prospects. Sure Nylander but nothing else special and lot of guys that will never amount to much of anything.

Leafs suck at drafting.

Well, an AHL team of consisting of these ****** prospects just won their 9th straight game yesterday to take a 2-0 lead in their playoff series. The prospect group isn't elite but it isn't as bad as that.

 

[Drew311]

My picks based purely on NHL potential/upside.

1. Nylander - 1st line C/W
2. Brown - 2nd line W
3. Percy - 3D
4. Leivo - 2nd line W
5. Leipsic - 2nd line W
6. Valiev - 3D
7. Johnson - 2nd line W
8. Loov - 4D
9. Verhaeghe - 3C
10. Gauthier - 3C

Hockey News rated us 27th. It is what it is.

Hard to argue.

Draft schmaft.

 

[HarryLime]

Honestly don't see much here.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Hockey News rated us 27th. It is what it is.

They are the only people whom have us ranked that low though. We are usually middle 10.

Thanks for the list!

Thanks for the list!

Yep, was a bit surprised to see Leipsic as #3 but a solid list nonetheless.

 

[Babcocks Marner]

Small prospects with big heart and effort. On and off the ice.

 

[MJ65]

So how many people that have Soshnikov in their top 10 have seen him play multiple times ?

That's what I was wondering?
