The Butcher easily won round 1. Fellow 2013 third rounder Adam "Rambo" Tambellini is added to the poll.

THE RULES

WHO IS A PROSPECT: We can't all have different standards based on what we each want personally. We are on the HF board, so let's follow their rules. The standard for what's a prospect is here: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/whatmakesaprospect

* Please don't write that so-and-so should or should not be a prospect. It's not up to each individual here to decide, it's up to the HF rules. Every poll we have people who think they get to decide the rules. If you don't like the rules, go to another web site because here we use HF rules.

HOW TO RANK PROSPECTS: Based on their value in a hypothetical trade or waiver draft. This takes into consideration a prospect's ceiling, how close he's to making it, his health, work ethic, the whole deal. Imagine there was a prospect waiver draft and you could keep only one prospect. That guy is our #1 prospect. Then imagine we had one more waiver protection. That guy is our #2 prospect.

Please write who you want added to the poll, and give a reason for it. This makes the discussion here more lively.

Voted for Skjei who's almost on par with The Butcher as a top prospect. Add Boo Nieves because he has a good combo of size and speed.

It should be Skjei 100%. Adding this year's second rounder at such an early stage is telling but it is what it is.

People complain we don't have that many high-end prospects, but on the other hand we have players who made the team last season (Hayes, Miller, Fast) while having other, relatively young, core pieces signed long-term (McDonagh, Stepan, Staal, Zuccarello, Brassard).

Despite the fact that we do not have an elite prospect-pool, we are actually doing great due to the fact that we aren't in dire need of prospects making the team.

I know Beacon asked not to discuss who is or isn't a prospect, but I really feel Nejezchleb should be part of the list. He was drafted last year and we still own his rights.

I will add him if by NHL rules he counts as Rangers property instead of a camp invitee. Can someone confirm either way?
