Rank NHL top 10 prospects by country

[HOCKEY_GURU]

been following the top swedes debate... my personal preferrence for No. 1 spot still goes to Kronwall , played solid in the NHL and is teairng it up in the AHL this year.... so lets see ....

- hes a safe pick as to he showed he can do the job in the NHL
- he's showing that he has a high upside offensively

so why rank unproven whith high upside against proven (defensively) with high upside (offensively)? - my two cents

I would have to say Joni Pitkanan would be near the top of the list for Finland

Oooo! OOo! Someone do Germany! You guys will laugh when you see how many prospects from there the Sharks drafted.


Yes, they are decent players.

No, I don't know why the sharks drafted so many.

Hopefully it will earn the team a cool nickname in the future.
