Hey gang, I hope everyone is enjoying this interesting offseason
It's that point in the offseason where the board winds down and there isn't too much to talk about, so it's perfect timing for the annual prospect ranking polls. I've ran it the last two years and I've had a blast doing it so I've decided to run it a again.
Like last year I'm going to use HF's prospect criteria, which is under 65 NHL games played. So that means that Draisaitl, Nurse and Pakarinen have graduated. I will also be adding Connor McDavid (45 GP) and Brandon Davidson (63 GP) to the graduated list as I and I'm assuming most on here, don't consider either a prospect anymore. Guys like Reinhart, Slepyshev, Brossoit, Khaira, Oesterle and Pitlick are still eligible. Just like last year I won't be including guys deemed to be AHL vets... So Ryan Hamilton is not eligible. In addition I will be excluding guys on AHL deals so Joey Benik, Josh Currie, Ty Rimmer, Marco Roy, Scott Allen and Alex Loiseau are not eligible.
Just like last year, I've decided to skip poll #1. I think we can all agree that Jesse Puljujarvi is our top prospect. I'm gonna go ahead and give him 100% of the vote, because anyone that wouldn't vote him is just trolling the poll. Poll #2 will be very interesting.
Poll #2 will go up just before noon tomorrow.
