I honestly like our top 25... a lot of solid players.... maybe lack the elilte/star power... but overall a pretty good mix.

There is a drop off after 7, with Jones' injury status. I think they could and have been deeper.
Certainly not a bad system though

Out of those players, how many would you guys think have a legitimate chance at being top 9 forwards/top 6 d-men/NHL goalies?

Lundestrum is going to fly up this list and already looks like he's too low. Just like with hampus, I can't wait to see him in preseason games.

Also, thanks for doing this, it's a lot of work.

Steel, terry, comtois, jones, lundestrom, groulx... id say.

Larsson, pettersson, welinski, mahura and maybe a tad early but drew.

All 3 goalies have at least back up level talent

Some other guys have potential but need to see more of em

I agree. They got alot of guys who can become middle 6 fowards (45 to 50 points per season).
Hopefully by then they got a new coach who will run 4 lines properly.
If all of the top forward prospects can put up Kase like numbers thats alot of forward depth to have.

I don't mind where most prospect sites rank the Ducks farm system. We know our scouts are really good & see guys drafted later like Kase & Manson produce alot. How a very late 1st rounder like Rakell is now a star. They way out performed what most expected from them or thought they were capable of.

Sprong has now played 43 NHL games, which means he'd still qualify as a prospect according to HF standards. It would've been interesting to see where he'd rank on this list. I'd probably slot him between Larsson and Mahura, at least within the top-5.
