HFAvs Prospect Ranking Poll #9

[tigervixxxen]

Not time yet for NuBigras for me So I’m going Kovalenko. Glad to see others are on board with him. I love his game. While I don’t see a ton more than third line, maybe middle six I think he’ll be effective right away.

Add Lewis, Beaucage if two.

 

[missionAvs]

This is new Meloche's time to shine.

Timmins has already been picked...

 

[Foppberg]

Know what's cool? 3/8 of our top prospects come from one trade.

 

[Tweaky]

Hellboy, add Annunen and Lewis

 

[AllAboutAvs]

Helleson.
Add LOC and Weiss.

 

[Patagonia]

Know what's cool? 3/8 of our top prospects come from one trade.

What's even better is the AVs nearly built an entire team with just 3 player trades (Duchene/ROR/Barrie).


Bowers - Kadri - Compher
Greer - Kamenev - Steinburg
Smirnov - Morrison - 3rd Leafs

Girard - Byram
Zadorov - Rosen
Zhuravlyov

Anunen

I'm not ready for this lineup. Yet.

 

[Freudian]

Voted for the new bust on the block.

 

[Congo Jack]

Helleson.

Add Beaucage and Weiss

 

[Patagonia]

I'm not ready for this lineup. Yet.

It’s already happening.

Some of these players already on the AVs, others should be joining the team in the coming years.

Where's Makar? I used to think you were knowledgeable. Now I realize you're just a sadist.

Seriously though, if they earn their way up then fine. Just not the starting lineup for opening night but yes, I see your point about depth and getting max value in the trades.

Players listed are from the 3 trades, Makar is from the AVs own pick after their embarrassing season.

 

[Bone Breaker]

helleson. add Beaucage and LOC.

 

[cgf]

In a non-smartass manner. Not in my order, just following how teams would rank them for trades. The / prospects would be debatable depending on scouts. Impact means top 6/4.

A prospects (blue chippers, sure thing impact):
Makar
Byram

A-/B+ prospects (solid potential for impact, some flaws):
Newhook
Timmins (if recovered and not stagnated)

B prospects (average chance at impact, good NHL chance):
Kaut
Bowers

B-/C+ prospects (chance at impact, average NHL chance):
Helleson
Meloche
Kovalenko

C prospects (very low chance at impact, low NHL chance, no real value):
Ranta
Werner
Annunen
Weiss
Morrison
Zhuravlyov
Burzan
Beaucage
LOC

D prospects (long shots, no value)
Shvy
Saigeon
Henry
Lewis
Stienburg
etc

Reclamation Potential:
Kamenev
Greer

You're higher on Timmins & Kovalenko than I am. And I'd probably have Shvyry & Lewis over LOC just due to theoretical potential.

I'm also just not very high on Ranta. I see the McPing 2.0 toolset, but I dunno if he thinks the game even as well as McPing-classic did.

 

[Pokecheque]

Voted Helleson again.

Add He—oh wait there he is. Well shit now I don’t know who to campaign for!

I know! Add Shmakov!

 

[Avsboy]

Greer is underappreciated

 

[flyfysher]

Greer is underappreciated

Sakic and JB want Landeskog, Johnson, Calvert and Zadorov to be the ones to deal with physically mixing it up with opposing team players. I don't think JB trusts Greer. I see him as McLeod Resurrected.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Greer is underappreciated

Yeah, by the Avs.

 

[S E P H]

I suggest we should just add one new player to the poll, we don't need to create a huge distraction with 15 players and have the votes go all over the place which it will when we get down to number 13 or 15.

Solid list, but my changes would be...

- Upgrade Helleson, downgrade Bowers (not a huge believer of his offence).
- I would put Weiss in the B- range, but I admit I am still a big fan of him.
- Downgrade Morrison, Zhuravlyov, and Burzan.
- Upgrade Henry and Saigeon.

Should be noted, it is not in my order, but how teams would look at their value in trades.

That’s not an NHL lineup. There’s only 4 legit nhl players there plus Byram who will be at some point.

In fairness, he didn't exactly say they'd be a good team...

Well he said we built an nhl team. But I wouldn’t consider it to be an nhl team if there’s only 4 players that are actually nhl’ers and only one/two prospect is looking like he’s gonna have a legit nhl career.
