Most underrated/overrated prospects on HFBOARDS?

[Next Best Thing*]

Overrated: Malkin

A little about Kostitsyn... it's ok if you guys underrate him, I don't mind (maybe others do blabla my farm team has the biggest girth ) because that's not what is gonna make his value drop. If people saw this guy play the 5 or so games he was up... wow. We have Kovalev's twin brother; minus the frame but that will come as everyone will try to run him down. And THAT my friends, is not overrating.

This was very interesting read.

Surprisingly many got many of these players right,
although....for some reason lots thought Malkin and
Parise were overrated prospects...

There were many posters who were completely off as well,
but thats normal.

Setoguchi was overrated by few here, thinking that
he was underrated, also few thought Toews was overrated...

Only one (or two) i think saw Price's true potential, many thought Pogge was
the guy, thou few overrated ones for Pogge as well.

Almost everyone were spot on Schremp, one even knew that he was the next
Pavel Brendl...

I would say some of the takes in this thread are even as bad as the ones you've made, which is an achievement in it's own rite.

Nice to see this place never changed lol

Did one dude actually say he wouldn't trade Heatley for Malkin?? Yikes!

These 2006 posters were way off. Luckily our new underrated/overrated lists will be more accurate looking back in 15 years...

I think this could spark a good discussion. What prospects that seem to be so highly talked about here make you shake your head? and on the contrary what prospects that DON'T seem to be highly talked about make you want to pimp(yes I used pimp on a hockey forum) this player?

What’s your definition of prospect before I start.
U23, U20, not in the the NHL ?
