Default Calgarypuck Prospect Ranking 2016 - Round 20

It's baaaaaaaaaaaaaack. almost like Shark Week on the Discovery Channel Calgarypuck and the Summer Prospect Ranking has become an institution for rabid Calgary hockey fans.

2013 - Sean Monahan is the top prospect (2013)

2014 - Johnny Gaudreau takes his turn (2014)

2015 - Sam Bennett come on down! (2015)

The last three years have had a prospect named first, and then make an impact right away on the NHL team. Bennett had to have surgery and mop up the OHL first, but all three were big players for the Flames right away.

Will that be the case again this year?

As per usual the vote is up to you. Some see it as most likely to play, some see it as highest ceiling, others see it as a mix of both.

Happy voting!

Round 1 - Tkachuk 83% (http://forum.calgarypuck.com/showthread.php?t=155575 )

Ive been voting for Ollas Mattsson for awhile now, off and on since about 10ish. The main reason is because he is a prospect I've actually seen play 3 games and was pleasantly surprised by how solid he looked.

Seems to have a lot of tools. Especially his calm demeanor when handling the puck. Really moved well for being a big guy. Also has a hard, heavy shot from the point. From what I came away with in every viewing, I think he could really surprise in the coming years.

This is usually the point in the annual rankings that I stop voting. I don't know anything about the remaining guys... Well maybe other than Hathaway, but I wasn't as impressed by him as others have been around here.

Ollas Mattsson still has potential IMO. He gets my vote.

Happy Birthday to him!

I voted Lindstrom simply because he's a 4th round pick, and Calgary has found some gems in the 4th round recently. He played 4 games on one of the best teams in the Swedish mens league. Unless he was called up at the end of the season to rest vets for the playoffs, I can't imagine a top team calling an 18 year up if he didn't have some skill that warranted it.

Hathaway would be my next pick, but its looking that won't be necessary. The Flames might get 2-3 years of good 4th line hockey out of him. That does count for something even though it's not an exciting pick.

It is interesting that Kylington and Andersson are much more highly touted, much earlier draft picks and went no 4 and 6 in the CP rankings, yet Adam Ollas Mattsson is the only one of three to play a World Junior game for Sweden.

I went Hathaway again.

Always interested to see where these lists go when they approach 20. How many players are left that you are somewhat intrigued by? At this point you don't have any sure things, you don't "expect" upper roster players, but at 20 it's a really good sign when you have a myriad of players that you are excited about.

Culkin
Ollas Mattsson
Schneider

I'd say that would be my list of guys out of the top 20 that still have some upside. I've waned on Rafikov and Smith, Kharnakouv is heading home.

But still 23 players with a "hmmm" attached is huge.

Voted for Ollas Mattsson since he did make the Sweden's WJ team, but I'm fine with Hathaway winning here.

I went Matt Phillips this time around. Maybe a longshot, but oozes skill and potential.
Considered: Hathway, Ollas Mattson, Mattson, and sleep Lindstrom. Falkovsky an intriguing project.
