Prospect Info: Rangers Prospect Poll: #5

[Beacon]

Blow out win for Dylan McIlrath in round 4. Mackenzie Skapski is the third goalie 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.[/COLOR] 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.

Don't normally love goalies, but I think Shesterkin will be pretty good. Add Nieves.

 

[Beacon]

As a college player who signed his first professional contract after the age of 22, he has 3 years of eligibility per HF.

And actually, by this language, Matt Lindblad is technically a prospect until the spring on 2016 as he signed 4/2013.

Ok, both added.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Graves. Has done nothing but get better year after year, adding new elements to his game, and I thought he looked pretty darn good for a kid that young in his first PS game against NJ.

Add Kovacs.

 

[darko]

Shest add Kovacs

 

[TheDirtyH]

Gropp again. Highest ceiling of the skaters listed. Add kovacs.

 

[nyr2k2]

Gropp, Kovacs.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Ok, now things got hard for me

Went with Tambellini since I think he has some decent 2nd line potential if his skill translates to the pro level. Could have really went with 1 of 4 players (Gropp, Shesterkin, or Graves)

Add Kovacs.

 

[EpicDing]

Having a tough time between Gropp and Shesterkin, went with Gropp though. Add Kovacs.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Gropp. Add Kovacs.

 

[iamthewalrus]

Like Halverson over Shest.

Add Kovacs

 

[kovazub94]

Russian goalie. Add Bodie.

 

[Trxjw]

Shesty. Add Kovacs.

 

[E-Train]

Graves. Add Kovacs

 

[bernmeister]

Gropp, add Nieves

 

[Siamese Dream]

Graves is more of a sure thing at this point but based on pure upside I went with Shestyorkin

Add Boo Nieves

 

[eco's bones]

Gropp, Halverson, Shesterkin--they're all even to me. How to choose? I decided alphabetical order--so it's Gropp for me.

Add Kovacs.

 

[cwede]

hard to pick who to add - Nieves, Kovacs, Zamosrsky, Hrivik all have appeal
