yeah its difficult to rate prospects because everyone values different things at different levels. In a way I think HF the right type of rating system since it estimates both top end potential and probability of making the NHL, perhaps a 3rd rating based on how soon they are ready would be nice as well. (maybe use stoplight colors; green is nhl ready, amber 1-2 years away, red 3 or more years away)
So for example I would rate Gaudreau 8.5D-red but Baertschi 8.5B-grean
Or you could have 3 number ratings and weight them based on importance.
I dunno, just spitballing.
