Forgetting ? No one really and a couple of guys on that list are pretty suspect.
Sad really and to think this years second rounder was given away to win a couple of face-offs that don't seem to mean a whole lot now.
kulemin
stralman
pogge
tlusty
earl
williams
Its nice to see the Leafs finally have a prospect pool.
It was actually next years second rounder. Thats better, meaning we have time to get it back.

It's an awfully shallow pool. Williams and Earl are dark horse prospects with big upsides but they're far from guaranteed to make an impact in the NHL. Nobody's going to be shocked if neither of them turn into top-six forwards. In fact odds are neither will.
Stralman and Kulemin both went undrafted first time around and way deep the second time, but they have thrived in Europe since, especially in the last year. I'd rate them as very good prospects, potential top liners, but there's got to be a serious question mark about their NHL potential until they've actually played in NA. Also, the way Russians are signing in the RSL these days you can't even know if Kulemin's going to come over. Sad but true.
That leaves Pogge and Tlusty as the only legitimate top tier prospects who are actually being developped by the Leafs. Hopefully Stralman stays after camp and makes it three. Even so, it's a pretty thin prospect list.
It generally takes about 5 years to see how a prospect shakes out. How about a look at HF's assessments of Leafs propspects from 2002:
1. Mikael Tellqvis G
2. Brad Boyes-C
3. Carlo Colaiacovo-D
4. Petr Svoboda-D
5. Markus Seikola-D
6. Alexei Ponikarovsky-RW
7. Jeff Farkas-LW
8. Karel Pilar-D
9. Luca Cereda-C
10. Tomas Mojzis-D
11. Miguel Delisle-RW
12. Ivan Kolozvary-LW
13. Jaroslav Sklenar-RW
14. Regan Kelly-D
15. Kyle Wellwood-C
16. Nicolas Corbeil-C
17. Sebastien Centomo-G
18. Allan Rourke-D19. Lubos Velebny
20. Christian Chartier-D
i wouldnt call it great. its decent, but not great.
It's not even that decent.......whats with all the hype the strallman kid is getting? LOL @ ferguson even bringing up the name lidstrom when talking about him in the media......is that the entire base for this hype?
Telly is a decent pick
Boyes was a great pick
Carlo was a solid pick
Poni was an awesome pick
Pilar was a good pick, minus his health
Mozjis was a great pick
Wellwood was an amzing pick
the rest are awful
