This thread is hilarious. Shows how strange some people think.
Marincin is the only and best answer to this question. Although technically that isn't very fair cause he already has 40 some games under his belt and appears to no longer be a prospect.
Marincin is showing extremely well in a top 4 role against an extremely tough Western Conference. He is the most successful player of that group and still has tons of room to grow/improve.
Sure you can say Leon could/would/should be better eventually. Same with Nurse. But both those guys are nothing at the moment... So... yeah... by definition Marincin is the best prospect.

Disagree, Ekblad is a way better prospect than Andrew Ference. Doesn't matter how you put it. Upside is what counts not what they have done.
For the record I am not sold on Marincin, I am surprised how many people fell in love with him. He is smart, good positionally is decent at a first pass, but, he doesn't have a lot of offensive upside, he is tall but pretty week. I saw alot of guys push him of pucks last year. Personally I think a lot higher of Klef, but, hey that is just me. Still like Marincin. just not as sold as many are.
Strictly on upside.

I see where u are going with this but Ferrence isn't a prospect and Marincin is. I am not going to go check but I also hardly expect Ferrence was drafted as high as Marincin or had his kind of upside.
If you completely ignore what Marincin has done to date, and I am not sure why u would, he still should be 3rd or 4th on the list.
His high potential combined with his success to date puts him as our best prospect no questions asked.
I rate Klef and Marincin very high so if Yak and Slep are better, those are four elite prospects. I hope you're right and they are that good, but not because the two defenders are not as good as projected.
well you love Marincin which is fine, no way do I put him ahead of Nurse or LD thought.
