Top 20 Prospects

[JoeIsAStud]

I have a bit of a different list, and give more credit to people who have accomplished more at a higher level than some.

I love McIntyre. Love Zboril. And O'Gara offensive burst last year to go with his strong defensive game has me very high on him. Also Heinen's season was really special last year, I still have some doubts, but it was so special he deserves the level of recognition.

I am less high on Morrow than some here, and really could have gone 3-5 spots lower. Personally I am still waiting for the game to catch up to the tools, and his timid play during his stretch in Boston didn't convince me

1. McIntyre - His ceiling may not be as high as Subban, but he'll hit it
2. Heinen - truly special season as a Frosh
3. Subban - Crazy high ceiling, but not refined
4. Koko - good player needs a chance somewhere, doubt it's in Boston
5. C. Miller - Really excited to see him in Bos/Pro
6. Zboril - Legit top pairing skills
7. O'Gara - Big Strong, can skate, offense is developing
8. Morrow - Tools
9. Celarik - very good in World Juniors
10. Debrusk -
11. Senyshyn
12. Carlo - Wanted to rate him higher
13. Arnesson - Probably should be higher. Won't be surprised if he makes Bs
14. Grzelcyk - Finally showed it in second half of Junior year.
15. Lauzen - Really like him, hard to put higher
16. JFK -
17. Donato - Hard to rank after last year
18. Vlader - Big Ceiling
19. Zack Phillips - eh, doesn't do much for me
20. Kuraly - 4th liner probably
21. Fitzgerald - I have big doubts
22. Ferlin - Not too late, but didn't take advantage of chances last year
23. Griffith - Can play in the NHL, but won't be in Boston
24. Czarnik - Really good college player, could jump up
25. Randell
26. Sherman - Needed him on list, still high ceiling
27. Gabrielle

I know I haven't watched even half of these kids. My question for those of you that have posted lists is, how much of these prospects have you watched to determine you list in order of best to worst? I would assume some of the kids already drafted and a bit older would be higher on the list do to refinement. I know that isn't the case always. Just a littler puzzled by the order of some of these kids.

Ironically Morrow was a decent scrapper in Junior. You look at this list and the Bruins have 3 guys who were ranked Top 25 in the 2011 Draft. Would have been 4 had they kept Hamilton.

There should be some flowers blooming this Fall. Or it's time to cut bait.

I am the king of backyard/BBQ sources so I've heard stuff on a lot of these guys and I have to say you did a pretty amazing job of putting people and adding comments to where I would drop them- really good job

its tough to go on the newbies other than the Bruins honed in on a certain type of player that 'has many of the 8 slices of the pizza' they want their players to possess

LOL!

No kidding. Did mine last summer. Good for another few years.
4th was good. My Moms in Woburn. Lobster, burgers, dogs, sausage, and every kind of salad and dessert known to man. Funny now seeing the yutes all grown with boyfriends and girlfriends there. 25 people. Mom in her glory. I left when they started playing beer pong in the garage.

I think my boys have got the battling out of their system. Breaking dear old dads ribs and ruining Christmas shocked them. Besides I told the Bride Im too old and brittle now to referee. If they decide to throw 'em again they are on their own. But my money is on the younger one. He has 2 inches an 40 ppounds on his ' big brother' and is. 5 day a week gym rat.

haha

just got done with the lawn, checking on HF and in the shower and then to the in-laws for hopefully the same type of spread you had.....I ate oatmeal and a protein shake just in case I see chocolate cake (goes well with Sam's Summer)

they had beer pong 30 years ago and I DO NOT miss it.....I miss a few things from those days but that wasn't one of them
