Obviously, a few of our prospects are still competing in their respective playoffs, but I think we have enough info to go on to rank our prospects.
We'll go with a top-20, to make it easier.
1. Evan Bouchard, D

1. Evan Bouchard, D
- Another strong, excellent season in the OHL. Some defensive issues were noticed throughtout. Should be AHL bound next season.
- What a season. Shot up in my books and should be ready to contend for a spot in the top-9 next season.
- A breakout season. World Juniors set the stage. Absolute monster in the 2nd half of the season. Seems underrated when it comes to our prospects. To me, he looks the most likely to be a top-4 dman outside of 'The Bouch'
- Just like Benson, what a season. Should be ready to contend for a bottom-6 role next season.
- Hell of season. Showed flashes of his abilities in his 17 games with the big club. A very solid season in the minors
- Struggled with injuries, but seemed like he rounded out his defensive game well this season.
- A 40 goal season. Points wise didn't like the 79 he put up, but fine-tuned his game in to a more 2-way style.
- Put up some offense, which he isn't known for. Defensive game is splendid. Should compete for a bottom-pairing role next season.
- Back-to-back excellent seasons in Sweden. To me, should spend AT LEAST half the season in the AHL.
- Was doing pretty well, but offense wore off after the trade to Saginaw. Most likely to be in the AHL the entire season next year. To me, seems like the perfect 3C a couple years down the road.
- Rushed to the NHL, struggled which in turn seems like it got to him psychologically in Bako. Didn't light it up, should spend at least half the season in the AHL in '19-'20 to get his offense going,
- Hell of a season. He's not higher right now because I want to see if he can continue it next season.
- A very good season in the NCAA, not sure if we sign him though. We do have an abundance of goalies in the system. I'd let go of Dylan Wells to get him signed.
- A terrible season in terms of his injury. Didn't post the offense when he did return. Playoffs aren't going well for him either. A lost year for development. Should spend a couple years in the AHL to get him back up to speed. There is a player here.
- Offense ran in place pretty much, but is known for his defensive game. Was highly thought of enough to be on the US World Junior team. Seems to have leadership abilities despite not wearing a letter. Diamond in the rough?
- Stock rose after his trade to Fargo. Put up ten more points in the same number of games. NCAA bound, won't see him for a few years.
- Despite his GAA and SV% numbers being similar year-over-year, he really stepped up for his team, winning 35 of the 48 games he played. Should be a contender for the starting job for Canada's WJ team next season.
- Numbers were similar year-over-year, but solidified his defensive game. He was counted on to be a workhouse on the back-end. Looks like he won't be signed.
- Playing the Finnish Junior league, was close to a point-per-game. Could play in the men's finnish league, or be signed and brought over to the AHL. We'll see what happens.
- His numbers were similar year-over-year as well, but his defensive game has solidified. Along with Desharnais, looks like he won't be signing with us.
