Prospect Info: 2024-2025 Rangers Prospects Thread (Prospect Stats in Post #1; Updated 08/29/2024)

Good for Kampf, I hope he has a very good season and earns an ELC. I'm not as hopeful as I was but perhaps...

 

[nyr2k2]

Yeah Kempf has become a very good college player, but I'm not sure if he has what it takes to become more than a depth AHL guy.

Nothing wrong with a 7th round pick being an AHL player.

Several prospect notes:

Today Vince Mercogliano wrote the first of his two prospect previews and provided his rating for prospects 6-10 as follows:

10. Rempe
9. Boliard
8. BMB
7. Garand
6. Fortescue

He implied that Boliard has more offensive upside than BMB and BMB is a shutdown defensive player and is becoming an elite penalty killer. The wrote ups for the other players were what to be expected.

Tomorrow he does 1-5, which very likely will be Perrault, Othmann, Emery, Berard and Sykora in that order.

Steve Ellis of Daily Face Off wrote about his top 75 NHL prospects and listed Perrault at 16 up from 37 last year and Brennan Othmann at 69 down from 42..

What caught my eye was for Perrault he said his skating is better and at the World Junior Summer Showcase, "he already looks more explosive" and for Othmann projecting that he cam become a top six NHL player.

It’s interesting that BMB made top-10 but not Laba. I get where you’re coming from re top-5 but an outside scenario could be that Laba is in top-5 (I’d guess at the expense of Sykora if this is the case).

It's too bad he only did a top ten. There are several interesting prospects who would be in the 11-15 range. I'm thinking Mancini, Laba, Chmelar, Edstrom, Roobroeck.

Absolutely. I think really once you get outside the third round, if you find an organizational depth player that's a good result. Of course you want to hit a home run every now and then, but those organizational guys are still very important.

Rasmus Larsson will wear #8 for Northern Michigan. I was relieved to see a roster released. Not that I doubted he'd be there, but they lost a ton of guys to transfers and the program has been in a bit of turmoil.

They also have an All Zoomer Name Team:

Wolfgang Govedaris
Grayden Daul
Tynan Ewart
Medric Bolduc
Grayden Slipec
Colby Browne
Aidyn Hutchinson

This are Rangers fans we expect Lundqvist and Pavelski with every 7th round pick

All i can think about is the kay and Peele football skit now. These names fit right in.

Wolfgang govedaris might be related to Jackmerius Tacktheratrix orD’Glester Hardunkichud

Nothing is better than Hingle Mcgringleberry though.

Vince M completed his prospect ranking with the top five as I suggested: 1. Perrault, 2. Othmann, 3. Emery, 4. Berard, 5. Sykora. Nothing unusual in his individual write-ups.

What was interesting was that he put Perrault, Othmann and Emery in a tier I (Valuable line up regulars) , with Berard Sykora, Fortescue and Garand in Tier II (role players who still have to prove they can overcome perceived shortcomings) and Tier III, Jaroslav Chmelař, Adam Edström, Noah Laba and Dylan Roobroeck, defensemen Rasmus Larsson and Victor Mancini and goalie Hugo Ollas among those who just missed this year's cut, but they fall into a similar category with prospects ranked 8-10 (Bryce McConnell-Barker, Raoul Boilard and Matt Rempe) − "clear strengths and things to like, but also holes in their game that call their staying power into question."

From statistical perspective the sheer number of prospects in that tier indicates that at least a couple will develop into at least a role players in the NHL.

I know we like to angst about losing draft picks in trades (one of the biggest Drury’s offenses) but as it stands right now the impact will not be felt for at least 5-6 years so the existing contender window should not be affected.

Boilard over Laba was a hot take.
