At what point in the list would you say would be the last player to fit in the next tier?

By tier, we are saying all players in that tier have comparable value.

Polls will be for three days to start, unless you all think it should be different. 3 days is enough time for people to make their cases, discuss, and vote.

Hoprfully the change in language provides more clarity.

I cast at Akil Thomas.

I wanted to include Faber and JAD but Clague spoils it for me big time.

Grans was a good spot to draw the line as well but I couldn’t overlook how much Thomas has grown and developed over the past two seasons.

Man, folks here are cutthroat in their tier rankings! I thought our A tier was short by at least 2 players too (though I think Anderson should be in the B tier).

It's Faber here for me. I think JAD by virtue of our center depth will eventually be a 3rd line W or strong 4C, but I'm not holding depth against him. If we are looking at projections, I think everyone up from Faber is firmly top 9F/top 4D.

I guess it really depends on if folks see the tiers as their ceilings, floor, or midpoint. I'm using midpoint, but I could see an argument for all three being used depending on your risk tolerance.

Yeah, I would have thought that Fagemo would have made it to our 2nd tier. Shows you what I know. Excellent chance the guy's as good as or better than Kaliyev......

That’s the price he pays for playing big ice. We just haven’t seen him on an NHL sheet.

Just like Kempe is the go-to sniper for Sweden in IIHF events, yet we get Lewis 2.0.

Haven’t figured that one out yet.

Agreed. I believe other teams' fans would be more lenient voting on the tiers of our prospects in comparison to how our own board has voted. :laugh:
