Prospect Info: HFCBJ 2023 Summer Prospect Rankings: #3

[Viqsi]

HFCBJ's annual prospect polls continue. A quick reminder as to how this goes:
Vote for the best prospect from the above poll (listed alphabetically) and post who you think should be added from the full (remaining) list below. Criteria is that they are under 25 and haven't spent the majority of a season in the NHL. (This criteria may not match any particular service's/outlet's, or anyone's here who makes a list. Be that as it may...)

There are no set guidelines to determine how you vote. Peak potential, likelihood of NHL career, pathway to playing time, expectations based on draft status -- any/all of these can be used at your discretion. There is no right/wrong way to vote.

For me it gets interesting at this point because I have no friggin' clue. Or in other words, no real opinion of my own. So do I vote based on a coupla highlight vids, their draft position, and scout commentary? I guess so!

I think that's how most of us vote; it's just a question of how much of that kind of information you gather. No GM personally scouts absolutely everyone he's going to draft and/or trade for, after all; delegating to information sources you trust (and doing additional research on specific guys when they become of interest) is universal.

Seems like a lot of people vote on how close prospects are to playing in the NHL, rather than on upside.

Yeah; that's a different debate, and everyone seems to weight those things differently.

Since Tarasov is eligible add him, I think if he stays healthy there still can be something real good out of him.
