Prospect Info: Canucks 2017 Prospect Rankings - #11

Or shiny new toy syndrome?

Maybe you can make arguments for Lind and Gadjovich, but Goldy, Pettersson, Dahlen are locks for the top 10.

Lockwood running away with it

(should of gone sooner)

No love for the WrathBone?

No love for the WrathBone?

Too many question marks until we see how he fares against better competition. Hopefully he gets at least some USHL action this coming season.

'Running away with it' is a stretch. This is one of the closest polls yet, and it's between 3 guys.

The thing is that having a good "prospect pool" is an ultimately meaningless and overrated thing.

Reality is that having a lot of prospects means having a lot of guys who have not proven to be nhl calibre.

Think about it, do the Leafs have a good "prospect pool?" probably not. But I am pretty sure we would trade all of our players for Marner, Nylander and Matthews.

Good prospects do not stay prospects very long.

Lockwood... looks like Subban finally getting some votes. A D should win #12 of Lockwood wins 11.

Ahead by over 14 votes pal. AINEC

You're... really something else, eh?

Next poll will be tight between the two d-men and the goalie.

I'm giving Rathbone love.

If you were the consensus top "prospect pool" team would you likely have more/higher valued assets to trade as compared to the team with the lowest rated "prospect pool"?

I don't think that the team with the best "prospect pool" is guaranteed to have the best young players at any point in the future.

But having a good prospect pool cannot be meaningless (but possibly overrated depending on who is giving the initial rating).

What Subban's already done in the AHL will probably eclipse what a lot of these guys will ever do. We're in longshot territory at this point, and a lot of these guys are so new that they haven't had the opportunity to underwhelm yet.

Not saying Subban even makes it to the NHL, but his numbers in a pro league despite alll his deficiencies puts him on top of other guys who are essentially 5 dollar 50/50 tickets. For me, at least.

Mcenery was higher than Subban last year
