RULES
Each poll runs 24 hours and is public. Vote for your choice and nominate a prospect from the list below to replace that player on the subsequent poll.

If there is a tie in the Top 10, there will be a run-off and the losing prospect will be returned to the pool for the next vote. Outside the Top 10, the tie will hold, the two highest Adds will be added and we'll move on.

PROSPECT RANKINGS
In the past, we've also done skater-only and goalie-only threads, as well as aggregate-type of rankings. If someone is interested, they are welcome to inherit that responsibility.

The doghouse
Borgen/Samuelsson/Laaksonen is really tough for me to rank. Going to go with the one I'd hate to lose the most, Laaks.

Borgen, Bryson, Laaksonen, Samuelsson are my next 4 in some order

It sounds like Borgen is the best D in Rochester outside of Redmond...that's a good start so I went with him.

I really like Borgen - we all do - but...offense. Hence, Laaksonen should get the edge at the moment.

As long as Borgen can pass the puck and skate it should be fine. We already have enough guys on the roster and the prospect pool that look good offensively. But a real lack of players that can play in their own end.

But yeah 10 points in 60 games is definitely a slow start offensively.
