But like I said, everyone has their definitions. He doesn't meet the traditional definitions though (HF, NHL, HN, etc).
I think a guy is a prospect until he sticks with the NHL club no questions asked, or becomes a suspect and is no longer in the plans of the team at all.

One is a negative, one a positive, and Horak is stuck between the two to date which I think makes him a prospect. That is evidenced by his step backwards last year by not making the team out of camp for more than two games

Add in the fact that he's not a guy aged 32 that I'm trying to make a case for, and still on his entry level contract and I have him a prospect.

Just my view though.
