Rank these prospects please

[EveryDay]

The gap in perceived defensive ability in meaningless in the face of the difference of offensive upside. That was my point, and I think I made it pretty clear.

Tracking prospects is not that hard. Kadri projects well on his way to being a top-six forward, Eller and Backlund do not.

The Rob Schremp comparison is just... weaksauce. Robbie couldn't skate nor would he play in the corners. Kadri is a risky player, but neither of these things are true with him.

By the way Eller is projected to be a 2nd line center......and he will probably end up there by the end of next year

Remier is so overrated, and only a TML fan would rank him over Markström. Remier started really well in his first games, but dropped after that. That's why his SV% is so good. "He hasn't proven anything". He struggled getting used to the NA ice, but had over 90% far november and out this season. Carried a SEL team alone at the age of 17. Of course Reimer has an advantage when he has played on the small rinks all his life, while Markström hasn't. Markström is by far the best goaltender among those mentioned, and it's not even close. Only on HFboards or in Toronto would someone take Remier over Markström

I am really against ranking goalies as they are usually very unpredictable. Sure Markstrom has proven he can play in the SEL yet Gustavsson did to and we all saw how that worked out. You will probably reply saying "Gustavsson is no where close to Markstrom" yet actually Gustavsson has posted better numbers than Markstrom ever had. I am in no way saying Gustavsson is better, im just using it as an example of how goalies are unpredictable and their true worth should be based on what they can do in the NHL. Ontop of all that, Reimer did not drop at all. In fact he was never spectacular but we praise him for his calm attitude and consistency.

Gustavsson vs Markström is another story. Gustavsson played on the best team in the league, and Markström on probably the worst one.

Remier certainly started out way better than he finished. He had some shutouts and one goal games, and HF boiled over, but at the end he wasn't as stable.. but we'll see who's gonna be the better one.

You completely missed my point What i was trying to say is that goalies are unpredictable when it comes to NHL success so rating them now would be foolish as it can go either way.

You can only live on potential and hype for so long. I don't know how you can actually compare NHL stats with hype and AHL numbers. Where do you draw the line? I dont know how Reimer even has a chance when you're using old SEL stories as excuses and accolades.

Is Markstrom already a top 10 NHL goalie? I'd love to see a list of which NHL starting goaltenders you think Markstrom is better than at this point in time.

I think even a Habs fan would admit Kadri has more potential than Eller. And Boedker is being VERY underrated.

Boedker is being underrated because he plays for phoenix. They don't exactly have the best development for prospects. Another example is the Panthers, plentora of high picks and prospects, few actually turn out.
