Meh I view it as Myers is 100% on the opening night roster this season. Fletcher has said it and it seemed AV liked him at the world championships.

That strips him of his prospect title to me.

So if this were the Rangers, you wouldn’t include Kakko?

 

[Curufinwe]

61-60 Myers right now!

Kakko hasn't played in NHL. Myers has.

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

Went with Myers. It was close between him and Farabee

This is clearly a tier of 3 and i can see anyone of they in first or third .

 

[Garbage Goal]

63 to 63 wow.

Voted Farabee because I don’t get how being a RHD makes a players skill/ceiling/floor any better. Trade value it effects, sure.

 

[Tripod]

61-60 Myers right now!

You might have to take this to the main boards to be a tiebreaker!

 

[Ghosts Beer]

Kakko hasn't played in NHL. Myers has.

Fine, but where is the NHL games cutoff? 1, 5, 10, 20? Or is it all just arbitrary? Myers will be considered a rookie. And he didn’t even finish last season with the Flyers — he was sent back down. So he certainly is yet to actually make the NHL full-time. I personally think it’s easiest to go by the NHL’s rookie designation in these instances. (But, it’s also not something I care strongly about.)

 

[RANKKA]

64-64 damn

 

[CanadianSniper]

63 to 63 wow.

I haven't even voted because I think it's so razor close that I cant even decide and keep going back and forth. Good to see the poll results backing that up lol

 

[flyersfan187]

And we have Brink making the cut with a vote!

 

[TB87]

lol someone voted for Morin

 

[HeyHanrahan]

It was between Myers & Farabee for me. Chose Farabee just because his developmental curb is more traditional and because I believe forward prospects are easier to project. Although, if Myers reaches his potential as a top pairing RHD he should be more valuable than Farabee at his ceiling.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I had Farabee as 1, just because there’s a combination of natural athleticism, intelligence, & cutthroat nature I rarely see.

Frost is the flash. Myers is the incredible physical athlete. But Farabee is the hockey player. Just MHO.

 

[freakydallas13]

Farabee, but I will gladly be wrong about Myers being better than him.

 

[Hockeypete49]

Myers is great, but Farabee is 3 years younger. That is too much to ignore for a player that, himself, is on the verge of the NHL.

I think Myers has the potential to be a good defenseman, but I am not ready to call him the second coming. For me I think Joel will be on the starting line up the beginning of the season. Watch out for Rubtsov. There is a lot of chatter about how well he is looking.

Cmon guy. If I thought Myers was truly great I would have voted him #1. He’s a great talent. Off the charts size, skating, and athleticism.

 

[deadhead]

Ah the age old question, upside v "expected value."
Frost has the highest expected value of the three, Myers the highest upside, Farabee in the middle.

Beats the heck out of arguing who is #2 after Ghost.

 

[GapToothedWonder]

Hatcher likely voted for Brink because he has yet too be tainted by the stink of being a real Flyers prospect. Once the seasons starts and it looks like Brink isn't going to be traded to another team his stock will plummet.

Miss-clicked. He wanted to vote Ginning.

 

[Rebels57]

He voted Brink because Brinks makes armored trucks and what can possibly be heavier than that?

Thats more likely than him appreciating a small player with skill.

 

[wasup]

Thats more likely than him appreciating a player with brains and skill.

Play nice boys .

 

[Striiker]

Play nice boys .

That’s not an insult, just a pattern. He hates skill players and constantly wants them traded. Meanwhile he loves guys like Hagg and Braun.

Last year he hated the Farabee pick and LOVED the Ginning pick.
