Default Hockey’s Next Ones: Top 100 NHL Prospects

This project has been in the works for some time over the summer...finally complete.

Intro Excerpt:

Quote:
"With a plethora of talent waiting in the wings, the future of hockey is bright. The 2015 NHL draft class provided the obvious generational talents Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel along with top guns Mitch Marner, Dylan Strome and the sublime skating defenseman Noah Hanifin. 2014 draftees Sam Bennett, Sam Reinhart and Nik Ehlers seem primed to put their stamp on the NHL landscape as soon as this upcoming season. Max Domi, Darnell Nurse and Shea Theodore from the 2013 NHL Draft all will be key cogs for their respective franchises soon enough.

But how do these prominent prospects stack up against each other? THW brings you The Next Ones Top 100 NHL Prospects. This is a collaborative project combining the opinions of three of THW’s prospect profilers."
