Prospect Info: Wings Prospect Discussion, Part II

[Frk It]

I thought we were referring to our prospect pool? When did this morph into a discussion about active NHL players? I was specifically referring to our prospects.

Sheesh

Someone adjusted your algorithm to include Cossa at one point, but then they must have cleared that script.

Key is we have a bunch of “good” players in the pool, but very little elite talent except for ASP.

I think others are of similar caliber as ASP but we don't have to agree on that.

This team has graduated its top prospect from 2020, 2021 and 2022 to the NHL. Out of curiosity, how many "elite prospects" do you expect a team to have after that?

Here’s something to note;

There has been ONE 40 goal scorer drafted after 2017 - Jack Hughes in 2019, and Caulfield might hit that this year. None from the 2020 to 2024 drafts. Most players hitting this mark were drafted between 2014 and 2016. The lone guy from 2017 to hit this mark was Jason Robertson.

There have been 7 players after the 2017 draft with point per game seasons; Brady Tkachuk, Quinn Hughes, Jack Hughes, Evan Bouchard, Kirill Marchenko this year, Tim Stutzle, Lucas Raymond this year.

These guys don’t grow on trees. There’s maybe 25 or 30 per season. We shouldn’t cry if our prospects don’t hit this mark or say that they’re busts.
