Just sharing a "concensus ranking" from another forum. This is based on a series of polls
Tim Stutzle, Josh Norris and Drake Batherson were considered graduated. Erik Brännström is still considered a prospect
1- Jake Sanderson
2- Shane Pinto
3- Erik Brännström
4- Tyler Boucher
5- Alex Formenton
6- Ridly Greig
7- Filip Gustavsson
8- Jacob Bernard-Docker
9- Egor Sokolov
10- Mads Søgaard
11- Logan Brown
12- Roby Järventie
13- Tyler Kleven
14- Lassi Thomson
15- Leevi Merilainen
16- Zack Ostapchuk
17- Angus Crookshank
18- Parker Kelly
19- Benjamin Roger
20- Vitali Abramov
Philippe Daoust, Oliver Johansson and Kevin Mandolese are being voted next. Daoust and Johansson will most likely be our biggest risers this season.
Also, Maxence Guénette and Carson Latimer are top notch skaters. Guénette just won the skating drills at the development camp
Personally would have Ridly Greig higher at #3 and Tyler Boucher at #8 after Egor Sokolov who might be rising in this very soon. Gustavsson would be #10 and Sogaard #9. These are the main differences with my own pool, except also Philippe Daoust and Oliver Johansson in the top-20 instead of Parker Kelly and Vitali Abramov.
I don't think people know/understand how freaking stacked this pool is. Many of the best young players (Stutzle, Chabot, Batherson, Norris, Tkachuk) are already on the team so it's not super heavy at the top but the number of NHLers we are ging to produce is insane, and not just marginal players but a lot of quality ones.
Just the #17 on this list is a blue chipper lol. The 19th OA pick from 2 years ago doesn't even make my top-15.
