THE RULES

WHO IS A PROSPECT: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/whatmakesaprospect

HOW TO RANK PROSPECTS: Based on their value in a hypothetical trade or waiver draft. This takes into consideration a prospect's ceiling, how close he's to making it, his health, work ethic, the whole deal. Imagine there was a prospect waiver draft and you could keep only one prospect. That guy is our #1 prospect. Then imagine we had one more waiver protection. That guy is our #2 prospect.

Voted for Hughes who had a strong rookie season in Hartford. He's a bit like Sauer, and just like Sauer will fly under the radar until he makes it.

Add Yogan. He had a solid rookie season with .5 points per game in the AHL, but ran into a sophomore slump. Still he was dominant in the ECHL, even in the playoffs when a lot of AHLers were in the ECHL, and all the crappy teams were out.

Yogan is big, a good skater and has a hard shot. He's kind of the Kreider of the AHL, complete with Kreider's early struggles. He will never be as good, but as a speedy power forward, he has a legitimate chance to play in the NHL.
 
Oops, wrong headliner. Chose injury report instead of prospect info. Mods please change it.

Calle.
Also agree Add Yogan. Agree w/above except for exaggeration of Yog's speed.
This is our last year w/contract. Hope we don't lose him for nothing.
Kick ass and make 4th line in camp, or put in a deal for some value returned.

Yogan has a year left to redeem himself. I think it's possible. Right now he has no trade value.
 
Mantha, add Fogarty.
A righty 2-way center with size, we may see his offensive potential this season. Not that he'll be an offensive star, but he'll be a junior now, and should have the icetime and the readiness to be more frequent contributor on O.

wow i'm really out of synch with the community, on my list re D, i have Hughes, Mantha and Walcott all ahead of Andersson, who's dominating the D votes this round. Not behind the others by much, and he is still younger than Hughes and Walcott.
That system depth is key.
Despite how much we believe in these kids, if 5 or 6 of NYR's 13 D prospects each play 100 NHL games, that would be exceptional.

I agree with you. Since we drafted Calle Andersson he has not impressed me a whole lot. I'd rank him below all of Hughes, Mantha and Walcott as well.
 
Nanne should've stuck to playing center if he hopes to make the NHL. How many 5-10 defensemen are there in the NHL?

Tobias Enstrom, Kimmo Timonen, Francis Bouillon, Torey Krug and Brian Rafalski are the only ones who come to mind.

It's hard enough making it as a 5-10 forward, it's 10 times more difficult making it as a 5-10 defenseman.
 
Hughes, the guy's got a year of pro experience, so that's got to show for something.

Beacon, surely there must be a way to demean Crosby without the casual misogyny?
