Well, he ranked this group 13th:

Wheeler’s 2021 NHL prospect pool rankings: No. 13 Toronto Maple Leafs

Why were the Maple Leafs 13th in Scott Wheeler's prospect pool rankings? Who is Toronto's top prospect?

So a whole bunch of junk basically. No top end talent. However I do think Minten will be a Stajan type and have a 10 year + career

The Athletic (Scott Wheeler) ranks the Leafs prospect pool 28th in his latest rankings.

1. Cowan (projects as a top 9 forward)
2. Minten (projects as a 4th line C)
3. Danford (projects as a 3rd pair dman)
4. Akhtyamov (solid NHL goalie)
5. Hildeby (possible #2 or good organizational depth goalie)
6. Grebenkin (bottom 6 winger)
7. Niemela (5-8 D somewhere else)
8. Chadwick (7-8 D with possible upside)
9. Holinka (might play some NHL games)
10. Villeneuve (possible call up option one day)
11. Tverberg
12. Quillan
13. Johansson
14. Moldenhauer
15. Miller

I'm impressed they weren't ranked dead last, that is a sad list of prospects. Very few of them are progressing this season too.
