Winnipeg Jets Top 20 Prospects 2016 - #5

[Skidooboy]

Petan
Add poolman

 

[Sixty Minute Man]

That'll be a while, neither are in my top 10

Definitely not top 10, but that's where the voting gets interesting.

Copied and pasted this from a post in 2013, so I guess it would have been our 2012 top 20. It's amazing to see that we've come to the point where a Joel Armia depending on the vote realistically could just barely make it into our top 10 of prospects(Roslovic, Lemieux, Comrie, Stanley and even Poolman and Foley have made such obvious strides forward they might be considered ahead of Armia)


Last year's rankings:

1. Mark Scheifele
2. Jacob Trouba
3. Ivan Telegin
4. Paul Postma
5. Spencer Machacek
6. Patrice Cormier
7. Carl Klingberg
8. Eddie Pasquale
9. Lukas Sutter
10. Adam Lowry
11. Zach Redmond
12. Scott Kosmachuk
13. Zach Yuen
14. Jason Gregoire
15. Ben Maxwell
16. Julian Melchiori
17. Eric O'Dell
18. Cody Sol
19. Austen Brassard
20. Brennan Serville

Look at some of those names, I guess nine players there are still with us but so many names wouldn't even sniff our top 20 today, we are that deep.

Every one is saying look how much our prospects have improved since 2012.

Well no $***!

That's because Chevy was Patient in a draft and develop model. Saved and coveted our draft picks. Our 2016 prospect list if we added all the OA draft positions is dramatically better than the OA # of our 20 top prospects of 2012. Simple math.... You can draft better players at better draft positions.

I just wish we would not have. Wasted our 2 nd rounders

-2012 2 nd on Sutter
- 2013 2 nd on Frolik
- 2014 2 nd on Settiguchi
2016 2 nd on move up in the 1 st trade
