Prospect Info: Rangers Prospect Poll: #22

[Beacon]

LW Ryan Bourque won round 21. D Tommy Hughes 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.

Ryan Mantha easily here. He was a 4th round pick last year and had a very solid year. Huge size, as big as McIlrath, but not as nasty. He does handle the puck better than McIlrath did at the same age.

Add Huska. Gotta trust that the Rangers had reason to draft him despite having several quality goalie prospects already in the system.

 

[cwede]

Bodie
add Huska;
I suspect he goes to NCAA,
by 2020, the other young goalies will have sorted themselves out...

 

[Savant]

Bernhardt add Huska

 

[darko]

Mantha add Lindblad

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Bernhardt add Huska

Same.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

Bernhardt add Huska.

 

[nyr2k2]

Fogarty, Lindblad.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I'm torn between Bodie, Iverson, Fogarty and Mantha.

Fogarty and Bodie seem to be closest to actually making the Rangers team while Iverson and Mantha are a few years younger but have already developed significantly since being drafted. Damn, this is hard.

I will go with Fogarty. Add Huska

 

[eco's bones]

Fogarty. Lindblad.

Someone break the tie.

Someone broke the tie, so Mantha wins. Next round: http://hfboards.mandatory.com/showthread.php?t=1967999
