My Draft Rankings are here! I'm really happy with how this turned out. These rankings are built using a combination of my model's projections and a consensus scout opinion. Check out the full Top 100 on my BMC, available to everyone! buymeacoffee.com/watchthestats/…

Fraser Minten was acquired by the Bruins at the deadline in the Carlo trade. Minten's WHL production wasn't too inspiring and his AHL play this year wasn't eye popping either. If he makes it to the NHL, it'll be in a bottom six role. #NHLBruins

A lot of people are learning the name Jeremy Loranger today. Loranger is a player that I'm very intrigued to watch in the coming years, especially with how well he grades out in my model. The BCHL is a much better league than people give it credit for which has a huge part to…

WATCH THE STATS TOP 100 NHL AFFILIATED PROSPECTS Here it finally is, the best one hundred prospects in the NHL in the eyes of my model. The list is led by three defensemen in the top five in Hutson, Buium, and Nikishin, all well on their way to being franchise guys on their…

I will be releasing my top 100 prospects in a few hours, but until then, here are 15 players who just missed the cut. To qualify as a prospect, the player must: 1) Have just played their D+5 or less in 24-25 2) Played no more than 25 career NHL games Notable names here include…

My Top 100 Prospects are coming tomorrow at 8 am PST! Let's hear your predictions for the top three! Here's a hint: it's not what the "consensus" is... 👀⬇️

My Top 100 Prospect Rankings are coming out soon, so before that, here's a little preview. This is how many top 100 prospects each team has with the tie breaker being total star odds among those players. Stay tuned for the full ranking coming this week...

Cole Hutson

New minor update to the model! Read about it here ⬇️ buymeacoffee.com/watchthestats/…

Chase Stillman was traded to the Canucks yesterday. I never saw him as worthy of being selected in the 1st, and so far, his career is proving that right. Who knows what he finds in Vancouver/Abbotsford but it seems like he'll be a career minor league player. #Canucks

This was helpful… 😑

A lot of people were asking about the comparison between Jiricek and Nemec, two similar defensemen. They've both had disappointing development paths but my model still sees Nemec as the better of the two. It's more confident in him bouncing back than it is in Jiricek. #NJDevils

Henry Thrun, acquired by the Toronto Maple Leafs, is more valuable than Ryan Reaves. Heading into this season my model wanted to see more out of Thrun at the NHL level. His 12 points in 60 games with the Sharks this year solidified him as a safe bottom pair guy. #LeafsForever

The Seattle Kraken are stacked with young centers, and Berkly Catton is no exception. Between Beniers, Wright, Catton, and now O'Brien it'll be very interesting to see how Seattle uses all of them. #SeaKraken

David Jiricek was one of the best prospects in the NHL after his D+1 season. After a lack of opportunity, it's a different story today. Minnesota paid a lot for him. He wasn't that great with Iowa so I'll be interested to see what next season looks like for him. #mnwild

It looks like the Kings have a special prospect on their hands with Greentree. His production exploded this year in the OHL. He has an NHL contract so the NCAA isn't an option for him. I wonder how close he gets to making LA's opening day roster... #GoKingsGo

Easton Cowan played well this past season and projects as a middle-six guy if he makes it to the NHL. I'm very interested to see where and how Cowan plays next year. #LeafsForever

Etienne Morin's production was promising in his DY, but since then, it's only taken steps backwards. There's still a path to being an NHLer but it doesn't seem that likely anymore. #Flames

The New York Islanders have done a great job of making their prospect pool better over the past year. The acquisition of Calum Ritchie is part of that. If he sticks in the NHL, it seems like he'll end up somewhere between a 2nd to 4th line guy. #Isles
