RULES: Each poll will remain open for 2 days. In the case of a tie within the top 10, I'll create a 1-day runoff poll to decide the winner. Ties outside of the top 10 will be let stand as ties. For each additional poll, I will add the most commented next to add prospect.



ELIGIBILITY: All players whose rights are held by the Buffalo Sabres and who are eligible to win the Calder Trophy for the 2023-24 season are eligible inclusion. That means a prospect is eligible if--

• He is under age 26 (as of September 15, 2023);
• He has played no more than 25 games in any single preceding season; and
• He has not played 6 or more games in each of any two or more preceding seasons.

NEXT TO ADD: Comment the player you want to see added to the next poll. The following players are eligible:

• Forwards: Linus Sjodin, Brandon Biro, Linus Weissbach, Matteo Costantini, Gustav Karlsson, Joel Berndtsson, Stiven Sardaryan, Viljami Marjala, William von Barnekow, Jakub Konecny, Justin Richards, Brett Murray
• Defensemen: Shane Keohane, Albert Lyckasen, Norwin Panocha
• Goalies: Scott Ratzlaff

There was really only about 7 maybe 8 guys I would keep ranking, but then I saw Ratzlaff hasn't been added yet and I could see myself having him over Leinonen. So sure you could probably get to 25.

Komarov add Ratzlaff.

Kisakov, add ratzlaff

Kisakov, add Marjala

I think there’s enough depth that 25 is at least an interesting exercise. There’s several players worth considering in the next tier. Once we get Kisakov and Leinonen ranked.

Agreed, a new tier starts once we get Kisakov and Leinonen ranked (after Komarov, Nadeau, and McCarthy of course).

Considering where I have Leinonen right now, we'd have to go past 25.

Crazy that our 2nd round pick from 3 drafts ago may be ranked 17th in here

That's insane depth
