Pretty much our top 10 with the exception of ZAR still being considered a prospect.

Nice work btw.

Edit: Missed Simon, so him too.

Thanks

To explain Simon and ZAR.... At the end of the series, every team has their prospect pool rated.

The only fair way to do this is to define what is and isn't a prospect, and use the same criteria for each team. We make it as objective as possible.

Under 25 years old, and less than 50 NHL games is a prospect. That's our rule so that later teams can be compared fairly. So it may not feel like Simon or ZAR are prospects, but by the rule that we set the first year we did this (2012), and have followed every summer since then, they are counted. The rule is in the intro and while some exceptions are made, we really try to minimize them.

We counted a player on the Habs, who literally has 49 NHL games this year in Victor Mete. 1 game and we wouldn't have counted him. So that's how it has to be. Flyers had Lindblom. Other teams fans have said the same things about some of their guys too.
