To me, those three (and the order they’re in) was the easy part. Now it becomes much more difficult. Who’s the next most ready guy for a 1-way NHL ticket?
Anyway, just saying that’s how I’ve always voted in these polls. In my mind, a 1-way NHL contract is the “Stanley Cup” of any prospect, therefore ranking prospects in a system should be like ranking Cup favourites amongst NHL teams.

Some people say maximum upside, some people say NHL readiness. I kind of go with "who is going to make the biggest impact in a relatively short period of time", which I suppose is a combination of the two.
