What a fall for Ebert. I actually thought Trouba was closer to the middle of the pack.

 

[R S]

Tends to be the most accurate list when it's all said and done. Look forward to seeing it.

 

[arsmaster*]

I hope he goes 60 deep with HM's.

 

[Minister of Offence]

My guess for top 10:

Yakupov
Grigorenko (my #1)
Murray
Forsberg
Dumba
Galchenyuk
Trouba
Pouliot
Reilly
Ceci

HM: Reinhart, Faksa, Gaunce

[Grant McCagg]

Some good guesses there. I just completed the profiles for Bob's top 30. We will be unveiling Bob's top 40 list at 7:30 est on tsn.ca

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Judging by the sudden Russian tweets by Bobby Mac, Yakupov and Grigorenko are the top 2.

 

[JMac13]

1. Yakupov
2. Grigorenko
3. Forsberg
4. Galchenyuk
5. Trouba
6. Dumba
7. Murray
8. Rielly
9. Collberg
10. Ceci

Book it!

 

[Riggins]

I will guarantee Reinhart in the top 10

 

[zjh]

Pouliot is not top 10 material. 13 at the earliest for me...

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Pouliot is not top 10 material. 13 at the earliest for me...

I noticed in the other thread you posted that you had him at 5th in the WHL. So yeah, consider the rest of the CHL, US and Europe and you're pushing 13th.

My top ten is:

1. Yakupov
2. Grigorenko

3. Forsberg

4. Murray
5. Dumba
6. Trouba
7. Galchenyuk

8. Reinhart
9. Reilly
10. Gaunce (I still really like him)

HM Faska, Girgenson, Maatta, Ceci, Collberg, Pouliot. The 8-10 is really hard to fit so many good players in.

I kinda spaced it to indicate where it could be a tossup. Really for me 8-15 is a tossup in many ways.

 

[Captain Mountain]

Looking forward to it. He always seems to have a better idea what scouts are thinking than other rankings.

 

[helicecopter]

My own:

1. Yakupov
2. Grigorenko
3. Dumba
4. Forsberg
5. Murray
6. Galchenyuk
7. Trouba

this is basically what i'm expecting as well

 

[yanokovich]

My Guess

1-Yakupov
2-Grigorenko
3-Murray
4-Dumba
5-Trouba
6-Forsberg
7-Galchenyuk
8-Ceci
9-Reinhart
20-Rielly

 

[Raab]

Gonna call it right now, Reinhart goes top 5.

 

[Minister of Offence]

Looking forward to it. He always seems to have a better idea what scouts are thinking than other rankings.

That's because he polls a number of scouts.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I am very eager to see this as bob is the one who is usually top of the game regarding prospects. I am still hoping his idea of biggs is wrong though (he called him armstrong which i wont mind either)

 

[Grant McCagg]

Looking forward to it. He always seems to have a better idea what scouts are thinking than other rankings.

You should keep a closer eye on McKeen's rankings, but in defence of Redline et al it's not the goal of the scouting services to guess where the scouts have players ranked.

 

[Grant McCagg]

I hope he goes 60 deep with HM's.

The rankings he sent me on Sunday night were 40 deep with 5 HM's.

And BTW, Reinhart is not in the top 5.

 

[catters078]

Whats everyones view on Morgan Reilly.

Could he end up bolting and becoming a top 4 pick.

Is it out of him and Murray as best D men in the draft? surely Edmonton and NYI would swoop on either..
