Draft Results- best available players
 

I'm in a league with some friends who are not up to speed with all the prospects which explains some of the rather odd picks. These are the draft results. Who are best undrafted players? Some that stand out to me are Tatar and Brodin but I haven't analyzed the available pool since I am set with my 7 players. Requirements are less than 30 NHL games played. Thanks in advance. Rep given.

If it was me, I would be scouring this list right here.

Should be all the info you need on possible prospects who have yet to be drafted. You may have to do a bit of searching to see how many GP the prospects on that list have played as your league only allows 30 NHL GP and people on this list have played more NHL games then that (first example I see that falls under that catagory is Matt Frattin).

Good luck.

It's a useful list but I think more is needed depending on how deep you go to find prospects and what kind of league we're talking about. This list factors in NHL-readiness and safeness (among other things) which helps a guy like Ullstrom (141) but I would prefer owning Stransky (145) due to better high-end potential. In a lot of leagues Ullstrom will be marginal and interchangeable with guys on the waiver wire. It depends on the context obviously.

I like using the fantasy guide and prospects report to sort out this stuff.

I like Tom Wilson a lot and Klefbom is a guy I would add as well.

Can you tell us which prospects drafted are yours? That would help.

Mika was taken in the 2nd Round.

I took- Huberdeau, Nyqvist, Silfverberg, Grigorenko, Bjugstad, Teravainen, and then McNabb who I have since replaced with Lack. I really regret not taking Lehner in the last round but I wasn't even thinking young goalie since I had a need for a dman that I could play this year and have Fluery, Hiller, Lindback, and Dubnyk.

My thinking is that if the season starts, I wouldn't mind packaging Grigorenko in a package deal especially since there are some good prospects that I can replace him with. Thanks for any help.

Is Trouba taken? Im looking at this post on my Dad's iPad.

I don't know what the value of goalies is in your league but there are a lot of top goaltending prospects still available and if the limit for farm team eligibility in your league is really 30-games then you'll want to load up on goalies since they are the players most likely to remain farm eligible until they are ready to compete.

Off the top of my head the best goalie prospects available in no order:

Jake Allen (yes that Jake Allen)
Matt Hackett
Mark Visentin
Ben Bishop
Oscar Dansk
Leland Irving
Dustin Tokarski
Calvin Pickard
Eddie Lack
Cedric Desjardins
Alex Stalock

Most, if not all of these guys are the top goaltending prospect on their respective teams and because of that they all would have a lot of value if things break right. At no other position can a prospect gain more value than at goaltender because simply getting a starting job is worth a ton.

Prospects who are not on the list:

Jason Zucker
Brock Nelson
Tyson Barrie
Adam Clendening
Mark Barberio
Sami Vatanen
Cory Conacher
Tyler Johnson
Richard Panik
Brett Ritchie
Drew Shore
Matt Donovan
Paul Postma
