Your Top 20 Detroit Prospects

[solo16]

Calle Jarnkrok is extremely overrated imo. He is essentially Filpulla. Great 3rd line center average 2nd line center. I think that is realistically his ceiling which he has almost realized.

He will never be a Zetterberg.

It's way too early to tell. No one thought Zetterberg would become what Zetterberg is when he was Jarnkrok's age. He could be overrated as a prospect, but he could be better than we even could have guessed too. Time will tell.

He is not Zetterberg, but far better 2nd PP playmaker than Filppula ever be. Defensive play will come, to Filppula level, and then he could be very nice package.

Even if he's Filppula or a poor man's Zetterberg does that knock him out of the #1 spot? Who else projects higher than that and could be in the NHL next year?

IF he wants to play in the NHL he should get over to The AHL as soon as he can.

Really?
How many games does Smith have under his belt at the age of 24? And he's our best prospect

How many NHL games did Kronwall have at the age of 25? And he's our #1 defenseman.

How about Ericsson at 25? And he's supposed to be our #2 defenseman.

Still waiting for Russian Dmen......
