Right now hes not top 10
Both Samuelsson's need to be much higher. 1st round potential and Mattias is a player who'll get Top 10 consideration.
As I've said, I've only had one viewing of most of these guys. People from specific regions will have a better perception as seeing 100+ prospects play this early all the time is hard to do and track.Few thoughts on some kids who've played in Ontario:

McShane is too low.
Hayton is criminally low. First round candidate.
Bahl is a player who should be in the Top 30-40.
No Tyler Weiss being mentioned anywhere. He is a player I could see a lot of people looking silly for not including him...especially in the Top 100. For me, he's in first round discussion and a candidate for second round (similar skill set to Jordan Kyrou)
Still think Ryan McLeod gets too much hype. More comfortable with him in the 20-30 range to start the season. Akil Thomas is a better prospect and is not getting the recognition he deserves.
Based on these rankings of Ontario skaters, I am guessing the OP doesn't watch much Ontario action.
I think I had him in the 11-15 range on my last list. Top 10 isn't so ridiculous, way less ridiculous than some having Wahlstrom top 10.
Don't want to criticize a list this early, but just to put my input into this list. A few things I noticed, Jett Woo would be higher on my list. He's a player scouts will fall in love with IMO, his playing style is transfers easier to the NHL than most other prospects. He's got really good character not to mention he checks all the boxes for a defenceman that will succeed in the NHL. Hockey sense, size, skating, and physicality. He'll be similar to Charlie MacAvoy IMO. I'd have him higher than Boqvist and Smith, Jett Woo never finds himself in a tough situation in a game.
I'd have Sandin a little higher as well, much better than Ginning IMO. Olofsson and Lauko are probably first rounders, Khovanov, Levin, MacDonald, Wilde, Zadina, Dellandrea are overrated IMO. No Carl Wassenius either, I think he's better than Back, Gustaffsson.
Two things pop out to me at first glance:
1. Khovanov so low.
2. Bouchard 25 spots ahead of Dobson, who I think not only is better now but has much more potential, and could be a first round pick.

D Filip Johansson? Good showing at Ivan Hlinka.
Aww man you can't do that. Wasn't he the 12 year old that was posting something crazy every 30 seconds for two weeks at the time. Very good job on the opening list though
Sorry man, he’s a friend, I had to do him dirty like thatAww man you can't do that. Wasn't he the 12 year old that was posting something crazy every 30 seconds for two weeks at the time. Very good job on the opening list though
