Vlad The Impaler said:Anyway, my beef here is that we shouldn't automatically assume an organization is considered crappy just because it is in the low ranks. As for my opinion of the actual list so far: It's so-so. Danny Richmond is a top 5 prospects in Carolina, no way around that. Jussi Jokinen and Shawn Belle ARE top 5 in Dallas. I would keep an eye on David Backes in St. Louis, might be top 5 very soon if not already. The list of disagreement I have would go on.
I will accept the blame for this.
I did much of the final draft of the write up and 99% of the players listed in the "top prospects" line. However, I failed to put the top 5 in there and instead had, for some teams, the top 8 or the top 10. Some teams only had 5 because, in the case of colorado say, there wasn't much to talk about after 5. The point is, in order to mkae things nice and neat, the final edit chopped the prospects down to 5... and becasue I didn't put them in order of 1-5... some guys got edited from there. Believe me when I say that guys like Richmond and Belle were in the final draft but due to my blunder, were trimmed out.
Sorry about that. (They're there in spirit )
