I think people got confused and voted based on ready right now cause makes no sense. Well at least after the third round here it truely is the prospects now and not guys really in the NHL. Has to be BB 1st
No, I think people assess projected upside and adjust for risk. Virtanen's an interesting propsect in that his upside is very high but the chance of getting there is low. Boeser's upside is also very high. But, and I think this is where Boeser and Virtanen might differ, Virtanen's downside is a solid middle 6 power forward. At this stage the saem can't be said for Boeser.
Prospect ranking isn't all about potential upside. It takes into account probability of reaching potential and floor.
