Who is the best (drafted) prospect in hockey?

[JT Kreider]

Have to limit this thread to prospects who have already been drafted otherwise the answer would be obvious.

And guys like Keller, Barzal, Boeser, Sergachev, Dubois, Puljujarvi, McAvoy or anyone else with a decent chunk of NHL games under their belt or are too important to get sent to the WJC have graduated beyond prospect status.

To get the convo going I'll throw out some names like Pettersson, Shestyorkin, Kaprizov, Roslovic.

That kid Dallas picked at 3 is doing well right?

 

[ThirdManIn]

I'd add Tolvanen to your list.

I'd add Tolvanen to your list.

Yeah he and Fabbro are definitely at the top of the list. Poile is crushing it right now

Probably Heiskanen, Pettersson, or Mittlestadt.

I think we could go ahead and toss Girard on there, too. He has played 22 games, though I guess the qualifier of being too important to be sent to the WJC may keep him off.

 

[Sam Spade]

Ilya Samsonov.

 

[Kcoyote3]

Whichever one doesn't have any NHL games next to them to fit your criteria. Can't go wrong. Just pick one and you're correct.

 

[Mr Hockey]

Top 2 are Heiskanen, Pettersson, my opinion.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

agree with people saying Heiskanen and Pettersson

Colorado has on D alone...coming in.....

Cole Makar
Samuel Girard
Duncan Siemens
Connor Timmins
Nicholas Meloche


Aren't most of them supposed to be really good?

Also hear Bean,McKeown-CAR, Stanley-WIN, Fabbro-NAS, Heiskanen-Dal, Foote,Spencer-TB are supposed to be very good too.



That's just D though.

ANyone know the best Goalies?

Other then Demko--Dipietro ---Hart-Ingram-Samsonov

 

[TrillMike]

Heiskanen has looked great from what I've seen, but I'm also a Dallas fan and keep an eye on him.

Duncan Siemens... Lol. Other then him Colorado has a very good looking pipeline on defense.

And Shestyorkin and Sorokin are the two best goalie prospects and top 10 prospects overall IMO.

Both have been stupid dominant in the KHL. Going to be very interesting if/when they both come over. Could bring the Islanders/Rangers rivalry to a whole nother level.
