I don't agree with a lot/most of Pronmans rankings but I'm not going to go around calling them laughable acting like I know more about these prospects more then he does.

I'm a little confused, in this post your argument is to discredit his accolades, which he has so clearly earned? I'm not claiming to have seen the various prospects to the extent of Pronman, but not only was Gaudreau clearly heads and shoulders above everyone else in College this past year, but the season he had, has not been seen in the NCAA for over 30 years. And I have watched Gaudreau quite often, he's a just an incredibly gifted and rare player. It's baffling to me to see 75% of the guys on that list ranked higher than JG, based on the player he is, his upside, and his accomplishments. If you really break it down, theres no debate that he's a top 10 guy.
