IMO, players 24+ who are not in the NHL should just be labelled as 'Minor Pro' players.

I agree, I would go a step further and say when a players is drafted out of the CHL or Europe, 23+ should be the cut off. Maybe an extra year for the college guys. 5 years is quite a bit of time to see what you have in a player. When they're going through waivers unclaimed, I don't see how you can classify them as a prospect at that point.
