Interesting list. I don't see Quinn Hughes ever being better than Makar. For the list, I guess I've just seen Makar play at a high level in the playoffs, actual time in the NHL and done well, while Hughes has done jack squat.
But it's just a list.
GMs would absolutely take either of those players in the top 50 let alone 200.Pretty brutal list, highlighted by two chronically injured guys no sane GM would select in the top 200 anymore in Vilardi and Timmins.

After the first 10 picks of any draft the players become lottery tickets.
I had Vilardi at #73 and Timmins at #113...not sure what was meant by 'highlighted' but I am comfortable about where they are ranked.Pretty brutal list, highlighted by two chronically injured guys no sane GM would select in the top 200 anymore in Vilardi and Timmins.

The mockeries are well deserved since Primeau should be ranked about where UPL is ranked based on his accomplishments in the NCAA at a very young age, based on his solid technic, his size, competitiveness, his poise and determination... His ranking is a joke, plain simple...guy puts out a list like this for people to look at and debate, and this is your post?? because Primeau is ranked too low for you, you need to put hahahahahahahahahahahahaha out there??
here is an idea hot shot, list your top 15 goalie prospects so we can all judge your list...we all will be anxiously awaiting it..
Kinda wondering if Tyler benson died or what happened to him@Favin csn you give me your opinions on some of the top Oiler prospects?
Surprised how? Have you heard he is getting healthier?People are going to be very surprised by Vilardi based on what I’ve seen in this thread.
And he was dropped in these rankings accordingly. A healthy Timmons would have been near #8-12 on RHD list. He fell this year after missing time. But don't think he ought to fall outside top-200. Most recent news was that he would be 100% for start of 2019-20.You have Timmins above Foote, Liljegren, Lundqvist etc ie. guys no sane GM would trade for Timmins, a prospect who has now missed a full year of hockey.

I know enough about development to know there is no single rule that applies to all prospects.Funny, he seems to be a riser on your list. He was drafted well behind those first round picks I listed and has done nothing to climb above any of them.
I’m not sure you understand how development works. Missing a full year of hockey (closer to a year and a half now) during the developmental years pretty much ends a prospects chances of reaching his initial perceived ceiling. There is no GM who would take damaged goods such as Timmins today above those first round picks I listed, who are all tracking well.

The list is complete garbage.I have absolutely no respect for this list. I know that you put in time and effort to make it but it’s utterly ridiculous.

For every injured prospect with unfulfilled potential, there is a David Pastrnak with his concussion or a Mathew Barzal and his knee.[/QUOTE]
This is false. There are far more prospects who miss a full season of hockey during their developmental years and are never the same level of prospect again. You just don’t hear about most of them because they don’t reach their potential.
Also, Barzal missed 2 and a half months with his knee injury, not 1+ years. Not comparable to Timmins.
The list is complete garbage.
Top 8 for what?Pretty much always like that..
Caufield was top 8 for most people, but now since the Habs drafted him he is worth nothing.
