Added Adam Werner. He is listed as "NR", not ranked, because while he was eligible to make the top 25 last year he wasn't voted in.

Also, I just noticed that Anton Lindholm just barely qualifies as a prospect, as he has only 60 NHL games played and turns 24 in November.

Beaudin here for me. He had a rough season to start and has his work cut out for him to find a role next year on the Eagles, but I'm hoping he does and that will put his development back on track.

Again, Henry.

Add, um...damn this is getting kinda difficult...Anderson. He's farther along than Clurman right?

Eh, I consider him to have a 0% chance to reach the NHL in any capacity, with Clurman as a 1%, so that puts Clurman ahead for me. I'm still voting Clurman to add, just because there really isn't much else out there with NHL upside except for Kvaca, who I've always liked. Again, very low odds to make it, but at least there's a chance.

 

[Congo Jack]

Beaudin

Add Clurman

 

[CobraAcesS]

Look how many players do not have 2017 rankings lol. (8/14)

 

[UncleRisto]

Beaudin, add Anderson.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Dickinson.

Add Big Josh.

 

[Freaky Styley]

I think Nick Henry is going to surprise some people. I think he has a legit shot to be a 3rd line RW, kinda like a Trevor Lewis or Dustin Brown without the nastiness.

 

[Patagonia]

Beaudin after changing my vote from Henry.

His playoff performances was the determining factor, as he seemed to play better under pressure than during the season. Henry stats were inflated due to Sam Steel.

Now that Morrison finally won, I can move to my next hopeless cause. Smirnov. But that is after Beaudin, as I feel he has a real shot at being a bottom 6 guy for a NHL team. Smirnov has potential to be higher than that, but no real path to it unless he explodes with enough scoring to jump straight over the lower roles.

That shouldn't take as many rounds with this kind of competition.

 

[UncleRisto]

I say let's not have Lindholm in there at this point.

Agreed.
