I am not sure where some of the moves are coming from. Gillies jumping to #1 from #5 is a bit surprising to me. Only a handful of games played, and a long-term injury. Now his injury doesn't necessarily mean he should drop in the rankings, but I just don't see the logic for him to jump up either.

Agreed...I was very surprised to see Gillies #1. And probably more surprised to see that Mason McDonald was ranked #3 last time behind only Bennett and Poirier). Goalies are typically very unpredictable.
I still like Poirier as our top prospect and Jankowski should be a little higher. But with all the graduated prospects over the past couple years and the recent draft picks trades, our prospects seem to be a lot weaker than the past couple years. I think it shows how great it'd be to get a couple 1st and 2nd round picks by unloading the expiring contracts.
