Was initially going to wait until after WJC to post my next list but I feel there’s been so much movement for me that I should update it
Here’s my last list
*Goalies are not ranked
Some recent notes
1. If Dach had more hustle/effort he’d really push Kakko for my 2 spot. The top 3 are all very close, Dach is closer to Hughes than he is to Cozens imo
2. Yes I still have Honka and Newhook that high. I can understand people’s reasoning for dropping Honka but I think he’ll turn it around, kid has so much talent. Don’t really understand why Newhook’s dropping though as he’s looked good for me in recent viewings
3. I finally came around on Pelletier and realized I was being a bit harsh on him, kid has impressed me a lot lately
4. I don’t get why Brink is getting so hyped lately but Kallionkieli isn’t
5. The only rankings I’m not completely confident in is Hamaliuk, Kaliyev, and Gutik. I’ve just found it hard to rank them because they’ve been so up and down for me
6. Cole Schwindt, Harrison Blaisdell, and Luke Toporowski need some more love
7. Carter Berger is an overager in the BCHL who’s really impressed me, I’d be surprised if he went undrafted again but he does have very little exposure
This is also the most I’ve ranked so far since I’ve been posting my list. The highest I’ve gone is 150. I have about 200 guys but I didn’t know enough about the last 40 to rank them.
And finally, here’s my list
