Top 1995 Prospects (2013 NHL Draft)

[Tigers1992]

Yes. I'm big on Monahan. I think he will be going Top 10 2013. Another guy to look out for is Nathan MacKinnon who is drawing a lot of attention. He's being compared to the likes of Sidney Crosby. Also another guy turning heads is Adam Erne, who was only one out of a handful to be drafted in to the USHL as a 95.

At this point he is probably the top eligible forward from Ontario

What does that have to do with anything?

Jacob Trouba was a third rounder.

Crystoval Nieves was a 12th rounder

Tyler Sequin was 9th

Jeff Skinner was 20th.

They all did the same thing Domi did. None where willing immediately commit to the OHL. It has no baring on the NHL.

There is a bigger "way to high" guy on that list from Ontario without the Domi last name.

Yes seguin and skinner wernt top 5, but were they considered top 5 for their nhl drafts 2 years before the draft? No. And domi shouldn't be either. Even if he did commit 100 percent to the ohl do you think he would have gone top 5? I just think putting him at 2nd overall is completely ridiculous right now. A lot can change in the future and many prospects have shown us that. But right now he's not a top 10.

Domi is way too high. The kid didnt even go top 5 in the ohl draft. I'd probably put jones and lazar higher. also Hunter shinkaruk has potential top be a top 10 guy, Id put him there as of now. (late 94 with 42 pts in the whl last season. Some guys flying under the radar as of now could be jared hauf and keagan kanzig, both 6'5 and 1st rounders in the whl bantam draft. Both also excellent skaters from what I have seen.

Domi only fell cause he threatened to go to the USHL. IMO he would have went 1st ahead of Ekblad if he made it apparent that he was going to the O.

I highly doubt that

ya I don't think so...

 

[Tigers1992]

Domi was ranked 4th behind Ekblad, Ritchie and Nurse.

 

[SensFan2010]

Could Monahan go in top 5? What's his NHL potential?

 

[Tigers1992]

Could Monahan go in top 5? What's his NHL potential?

Its just so early at this point.

Most of these kids havent even played in Junior yet. Look at the players who where said to be top 10 for the 2011 NHL Draft a few years ago, alot struggle with the transition, or thrive and become better then most would expect.

 

[DoYouBeleaf]

Domi was ranked 4th behind Ekblad, Ritchie and Nurse.

Yes, because Tie stated at the beginning of the season that Max is taking the NCAA route.

 

[Breakfast of Champs]

Yes, because Tie stated at the beginning of the season that Max is taking the NCAA route.

Yes and in 2010 for the q draft everyone knew michael matheson was going ncaa and he was still ranked 1st. In the rankings they don't do it based on probability of entering the league.

 

[Tigers1992]

Yes, because Tie stated at the beginning of the season that Max is taking the NCAA route.

No. American players who where committed to the NCAA where ranked high as well.

OHL Central Scouting does not care about NCAA commitments, they just rate based on best avaluable and let teams determine who is and is not interested in the OHL.

With respect, this is something that I am VERY familiar with.

THAT is the worst one i've seen in my life, Alex Forsberg will not even be in the first round first of all (call me crazy), Jordan Subban is lower, Curtis Lazar and Jones (isn't a 95) at 8? Are you serious, You even Forgot Madison Bowey who lead Manitoba a low rated Manitoba to 5th and is playing for the Kelowna Rockets that produce good D and the best 95 skater, Domi is good but I doubt he goes 2nd overall, I say maybe 9-20.

My rankings (including 94's)
1. Nathan MacKinnon
2. Curtis Lazar
3. Seth Jones
4. Hunter Shinkaruk
5. Madison Bowey
6. Connor Rankin

I have to say though Bowey IMO i not the best 95 skater, he is an amazing skater though...but best well that comes down to Mackinnon, Cammarata, Duclair or Subban...mackinnon is super strong on his skates, amazing speed, and I would have to say the best acceleration I have seen in a long time, he is in top gear within only 3 strides.

As for Domi in the 1st round I find it a bit hard, small and though very skilled and exciting to watch he lacks creating when pressured IMO.

[Skylimit]

Duclair?

 

[S E P H]

Duclair?

I consider him a late 1st round to early 2nd. But he can easily play himself into the top 15.

 

[Alberta tough]

With due respect scoutman1 I think Forsberg, and Duclair should at least get an HM on your list.

 

[Heat McManus]

I highly doubt that

It's actually more of a case that there was a particular team that Domi wanted to go to a specific team and that Peterborough was the first organization to say "go to hell"

 

[Tigers1992]

With due respect scoutman1 I think Forsberg, Ritchie and Duclair should at least get an HM on your list.

Nick Ritchie? Hes a late 95.

 

[Alberta tough]

Nick Ritchie? Hes a late 95.

Opps, thought Ritchie was in the 2013 group. Thanks for clarifying.

 

[YNWA14]

I think Curtis Lazar will surprise and develop better than MacKinnon.

 

[Jabba11]

There are some real good chances that Anthony Duclair is playing in the Q next year for the Quebec Remparts and Patrick Roy. More information tomorrow..it could be official.
