Fall 2016 Prospect Poll: #12

[Ruckus007]

All prospects who fit the HF prospect critera are included.

ELIGIBILITY
-In his Age-24 season with fewer than 65 games for a skater (or 45 games for a goalie).

-If signed out of Europe or the NCAA at age 22 or older, fewer than 65 (skaters) or 45 (goalies) games within three years of signing.

RULES
Each poll runs 24 hours and is public. Vote for your choice and nominate a prospect from the list below to replace that player on the subsequent poll.

If there is a tie in the Top 10, there will be a run-off and the losing prospect will be returned to the pool for the next vote. Outside the Top 10, the tie will hold, the two highest Adds will be added and we'll move on.

PROSPECT RANKINGS
In the past, we've also done skater-only and goalie-only threads, as well as aggregate-type of rankings. If someone is interested, they are welcome to inherit that responsibility.

Went Fitzgerald. Solid showing at US NJEC, and I think he has a decent shot to become a bottom pairing D

 

[Zman5778]

This, to me, is where the bottom drops out of things. No clue where to go here. Guess i'll go Estephan......but I don't think there's a particularly "wrong" answer here.

 

[MayDay]

Pu, add Kasdorf.

 

[CaseyMitts37]

Pu, add Cat

 

[paulmm3]

I'm between Brycen Martin, Pu, and Estephan here. I'd agree there are tiers in our prospect system: top 5, 6-11, and another tier starts here.

 

[MackAttack26]

Next 3 IMO are Pu, Estephan and Olofsson. Hopefully one booms for us.

Add Kasdorf

 

[kenfury]

Olaf by a hair over Pu

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

Pu, add Glotov.

Pu-Tang Clan, add GLOTOV !

 

[Jame]

Estephan

 

[Husko]

Cornell, I actually think he makes it as an nhler

 

[Royal Thunder]

Estephan add Glotov

We are getting into the "a lot of these guys will never play a game in the NHL" tier now for sure

 

[Husko]

Estephan add Glotov

We are getting into the "a lot of these guys will never play a game in the NHL" tier now for sure

Yeah. I have Cornel, Martin, and Florentino in the good chance at 200 games camp. But after that, yeah, they're all in long shot territory for me.

These polls always gives us some idea of how warped some minds are. Most boards have these threads after the draft. Some boards have gone as deep as 25 prospects, where some posters truly believed they were all NHL guys in the near future. Usually after 10, the bottom drops out
