None of these guys have played in the NHL so I see this poll as a measure of future POTENTIAL.
You can't penalize Marner because he is one year younger ... or that he can't play in the AHL.
So I picked Marner ... he has more risk, but has a higher ceiling.
It's not that the AHL performance carries such weight. Nylander - who is younger than most in the AHL - was leading it in points b4 injury. Brown is 22. Marner, who is older than many in the OHL isn't and hasn't been #1 in points in that league. That is a valid point to take into consideration. He's clearly #2. That being said Brown has done great in the AHL but there is also 2 years difference to Nylander. You could also say Marner's WJC outing wasn't that best - which plays a factor in my voting.
We're just over the half way point of the season, I figured it was a good time to look towards the only bright part of being a Leafs fan, the future. So lets re-rank our prospects, I figured we'd do top 20, although we can do more or less if the majority would rather.
I didn't include goaltenders, since it's always difficult to rank them with skaters. If everyone would rather have the goalies included, mention it and I can include them in future polls. Also, if there is a prospect not on the poll that you would like to see included next time, mention them and if there is enough demand I will include them in future polls.
Last time they did this they had picks in there as well. Not saying we need them, I'd probably rather not include them.
You should have waited a month before doing this when we have new toys to vote for
