Would anticipate Washington slotting int at the mid-to-high teens. Hutson and Mateiko will get post-WJC bumps, and Leonard continues to be one of the best players not playing in the NHL.

Yep. Wheeler is notoriously slow to change his opinions on some guys and is I think a little too focused on skating and offensive upside which will probably bump a lot of the Caps' guys down for him. Fascinated to see what he thinks of Hutson and Cristall in particular

Leonard did take some "unneeded" penalties but the refereeing was garbage. I get that that his antics propably played a part in it that he didn't draw calls despite being mugged in front of the net but he didn't draw any other calls, either. Trip, hook, slash and nothing gets called? Frustrating? Well i mean, d'oh.

NHL refereeing isn't perfect but they aren't as bad as IIHF refs. He's going to struggle to draw roughing calls after the refs grow tired of the antics in the NHL but the NHL refs still call slashing, hooking, tripping and those calls pretty fairly. Late in this tournament there were literally nothing that would have drawn a call for him and he STILL won the MVP and was great in the Playoff rounds. Talk about too good for Juniors.

I think given Carberry's fondness for and skill at developing young players, and Wilson as a mentor, I think we have exact right folks to help Leonard hone his fire. There'll be bumps because he's still a kid, but he couldn't be in a better spot to develop into everything he can be.

also teams like the Sharks with Celebrini and Smith (is askarov considered graduated)that have graduated players will fall in the ranking. So other teams that have graduated and Caps prospects have in General improved from last ranking (Protas, Hutson, Mateiko, Cristall).
