My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
http://lastwordonsports.com/2015/06/...nasty-leagues/
A couple days ago, I shared my top 9:
1. Connor McDavid – C
2. Jack Eichel – C
3. Mitch Marner – W
4. Dylan Strome – C
5. Mikko Rantanen – W
6. Noah Hanifin – D
7. Mathew Barzal – C
8. Pavel Zacha – C
9. Timo Meier – W
Now that I am pretty much done my draft in the one league that drafts prior to the actual one, I am comfortable sharing my own personal top 30 ranking. Give it a read and let me know what you think.

Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Good list, thanks for sharing. Only two players from your list don't make my own Top-30 (Senyshyn #33 and Chlapik #36) but even those two are in my Top-40, so I can't argue with much on that list.Of course some players are a little lower or higher on my list but our lists are mostly similar. I still have two weeks left before our prospect draft starts, so I still have some time to tinker my list. But to be honest with you, I don't feel very strongly about any of the players in that range, so Senyshyn and Chlapik could easily be in the Top-30 in my final ranking.
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
After 11-12, there is a pretty big dropoff in terms of skill in this draft. And then after around 20 or so, another dropoff. Late 1st round and onward, it's very difficult for me project.

Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Nicely done Chris! Thanks for the share, I needed the sounding board on my projections as well.
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
I always find it weird that some leagues draft before the actual NHL draft.
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Definitely makes it more interesting. I hate when I take the prospect I want and during the NHL he ends up on a team I can't stand! LOLOriginally Posted by MarmotKing
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Curious as to the reasoning for Zachary Senyshyn > Colin White. White deserves to be in the 19-22 range IMO.
I like how high you have Meier and Svechnikov. Thanks for sharing.
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Agree with you on Bracco. The play of Johnny Gaudreau and Tyler Johnson certaintly can't hurt how scouts view the smaller players these days.
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Everything I have seen/read about White just screams "Travis Zajac" to me for some reason so I didn't have him rated in my to 30. I prefer Senyshyn to him because I don't think we have even seen anything close to what he brings yet. Playing on a deep Soo team, he didn't get the opportunities this year that he could have to showcase what he will bring. Once a few of their key players graduate this year, Senyshyn will play a more dominate role with the Greyhounds and you will see a big jump in his numbers.
White wasn't far outside my top 30 but I backed off him for this reason.
Thanks for reading!

Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
Great stuff Axe - thanks for sharing it.
In a multi-cat format, I can absolutely appreciate you having Rantanen that high and agree that Meier will be a solid NHL'er.
On the flip side though, I sort of feel like guys like Bracco and Sprong have to drop accordingly too. Not sure they'll add much to peripherals in most leagues (SOG notwithstanding for Sprong). Same with Kylington and J.Roy. Feels like there might be a few more well-rounded D - Zboril comes to mind - that should be in the same conversation (with Roy at least).
Just nitpicking as I love this stuff - great writeup as per usual.

Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
even if you don't like Crouse...poor man's Benoit Pouliot? C'mon mayne
Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
It's just my opinion fwiw. That's how I see him.

Re: My Top 30 prospects for your upcoming Prospect Draft.
That's fine but I don't think you understand what "poor man's" means. That pretty much means he wouldn't make the NHL or he'll be scoring 20 points per season.
I hope other people in my draft see him that way if that's the case. It's pretty unlikely that he isn't at least as good as Benoit Pouliot.
