In his off-season pre-draft rankings he had the Flames at 20, with the top prospect being Zary, Juuso, Pelletier, Pettersen, and Wolf (in that order).
So part of my reason for 17 is based on the fact that I would say the pool is better now due to:
- The addition of Coronato
- The rise of Wolf
- Perhaps a rise in Pelletier based on AHL performance
- Could see perhaps less value to Zary and Juuso

But net you are left with I think a better pool now than back then. Of course other teams have improved too, which is tougher to project.

But I'm going to stick with 17 largely as I think Wolf's unreal AHL start will boost the ranking.
