I’d say that isn’t a great prospect showing for a team on year 9 of a playoff drought, but Scott Wheeler was famously wrong about Mo Seider, so I do take these lists with a grain of salt.

I feel Danielson alone will make this list not age well.
Also, he is so high on Eiserman. Not sure what he sees there other than a shot (albeit a very good one). Guy could be the next Tippet or the next Zadina. Time will tell on that one as well.

Could be a little prospect fatigue on Ed but the rest is alright. I think a lot of our players lack super dynamic offensive skills that these lists tend to bias towards, but has almost zero bearing on their NHL careers.

Yawn. Wheeler sucks and always has.

The wings need a high end superstar

The underwhelming ranking of some of our top prospects doesn’t concern me. It’s a combo of we’ve had our two best draftees of the past several years in the NHL for three seasons already, and my belief that Wheeler is underrating ASP, Ed and Danielson. I am pretty happy with our prospect pool considering where we’ve drafted. It’s so much harder to land top tier talent without a top 3 pick, and the draft has to be a good one too.
