Dont feel like doing more than top 10, ratings for projected full career just like Pronman
1. Auston Matthews - Potential for historic goal scoring as a C, career trajectory will depend on the trajectory of TML
2. Elias Pettersson - Plays on a solid core going forward, incredibly well rounded player, already in the top 3-5 in the league in advanced stats, Datsyuk+ potential. Could bring the first cup to VAN
3. Alexis Lafreniere - Hard to rate a '20 draftee but the comparables and projections are too good
4-7 are a classic tossup, they're more or less equal for the moment in terms of current ability and projected career potential and could shake out in any order when all is said and done. I think every single defenseman on this list will win a Norris within the next 10 years.
4. Miro Heiskanen - Best player on a cup final team. Already a mature two way game with excellent play-driving. Where can he go from here?
5. Rasmus Dahlin - Younger than the rest which doesn't favor him in comparisons, but has been historically great every year for his age.
6. Quinn Hughes - Historic rookie season, unique playstyle and gamebreaking skating has the potential for exceptional dominance and play driving from the blue line. Could be the QB of the entire team, not just the power play, in a peak Erik Karlsson way.
7. Cale Makar - Strong in all areas, but nothing on it's own screams gamebreaking. That being said, he's a surefire full-size #1D that can defend, shoot, and skate. Will likely lead the blueline of a potentially dominant squad in Colorado, if not an outright dynasty if the right pieces fall into place.
8. Quinton Byfield - Just like Laf, the scouting reports and junior play speak for themselves. I love what LAK is doing with their rebuild, and he'll be at the center of it.
9. Andrei Svechnikov - Potential to be one of the best offensive players of the generation. Just like Dahlin, he came in the league young and is only getting better every year.
10. Gabe Vilardi - Wildcard pick. I'm really high on Vilardi. He's been setback hard by injury, but looks to be no less the player he was drafted to be. Just like Byfield, he'll have all the opportunity in the world on what seems to be an excellently built Kings team. I think he'll really surprise people in his first full season. Otherwise, this spot goes to Matt Tkachuk as the known quantity.
HM: Trevor Zegras. Could easily, easily see him being anywhere from 4-10. Brilliant prospect, but for now, is just that without quite the pedigree of some of the 19-20 draftees on my top 10.
