Prohorkin should be higher on the list. I know there is uncertainty about whether he will come over, but you can't ignore the season he had in the second best league in the world.

And there is obviously one massive glaring omission on this list.

So Corey Pronman of ESPN just came out with his top 100 prospects, had has 5 Kings in the top 100, but all between 50-100, Pearson, Zykov, Prokhorkin, Kempe and McKeown...also Martin Jones is listed as one of the top 10 goalie prospects.

Not bad for a 29th pick, a 30th pick, two second rounders, a fourth, and an undrafted goalie...

100/30=3.34. That is the average prospects each team sshould have on this list.
5 is awesome, especially considering the kings have either tradedtheir first rounders or have been picking late

I'm a bit baffled as to how Pearson would fall out of the top 50 after the performance he had in the playoffs. I guess a full season playing alongside Carter and Toffoli will turn some heads.

Maybe newly drafted players from this past year would have pushed him down

He's gonna blow up this coming season.

ESPN writers know less about hockey than my 18-year-old daughter, and her knowledge is limited to attending more championship rallies than games in the past 26 months.

It seems like they always go after the 'higher profile' scorers on that list. Pearson reminds me an awful lot of Williams but with more speed.

I a bit puzzled. I read the article. It said:

Tanner Pearson (Previous Ranking: Unranked)

I actually think he surged in the rankings. He didn't fall out of the Top 50. Put your pitch forks away guys.

Can I keep my torch out?
