[Poll] CDC's Top Ten Canucks Prospects (Day 4)

[Guest]

Yo yo yo! 

 

You've finally found a home for your future #1 goalie on this list! Now the decisions become a little easier, as there are only a few guys left in our A tier for prospects. One of which is Olli Juolevi: Is he a bust at 21? Or finally going to come into his own? Next there's the teeny tiny winger with a thirst to get stronger. Is Hoglander a future Cliff Ronning or Mattias Tedenby? What about Madden or DiPietro? Are they dark horses for this spot? 

 

CDC's Top Ten Canucks Prospects 

1. Quinn Hughes - 107/120 (89%) \
2. Vasili Puts-goals-in - 62/134 (45%)  
3. Thatcher Demko - 75/117 (66%) 
4.  
5.  
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.  
10.  

 

As usual, if they're eligible for the Calder, then they are eligible for this list. 

 

Peace out home-dogs!

#4 OJ.....the only other player on the list likely to play this season

Zac Mac might have something to say about that.

Hoglander could be a huge steal in this year's draft...but this one goes to Juolevi. This  year will be a very telling year for his future. Likely ends up as a 3/4 with potential to be a 2 for some of his best years.

[Angry Goose]

Hard to believe Demko is still considered a prospect but hes played 10 games total.  Is he really still Calder eligible?

Rathbone needs to be on the list.

 

I would also have Lockwood, Gadjovich, and Lind in there over long shots like Manukyan and Malone.

You have to play 25 games in a season to be ineligible. Sam Steel, who played 22 games for the Ducks last year, will be Calder eligible this year.

[AV's Coin]

You need to put Rathbone on soon cause hes in my next tier with Woo and Madden

[RetroCanuck]

Karlsson, Lind, Gadjovich, Rathbone, Lockwood should be options in the top ten

I keep the guys who're likely to get votes in the list. The others who aren’t get swapped around. I put Carson Focht in last time, Palmu in the first time, etc 

[-Vintage Canuck-]

Juolevi.

[Nucker 67]

The way the options are listed seems to be the way they are going to be ranked. Maybe Chatfield goes ahead of Manukyan.

There are three criteria for Calder eligibility:

1. A player cannot have played more than 25 NHL games in any previous season.

2. A player cannot have played 6 or more games in each of any two previous NHL seasons.

3. A player cannot be more than 25 on September 15 just before the season starts.

Makes sense, but I think it is time to make Rathbone and LInd fixtures on the list.

 

One final point. I still don't understand why Juolevi is so strongly favoured over Woo. Or maybe I do understand but I don't agree. Juolevi will likely play on the Canucks this year and Woo probably won't, unless he get a few games late in the year. But Woo was drafted two years later and had a much better draft+1 season than Juolevi (1.06 PPG vs. 0.73 despite playing on a weaker team, was probably slightly better defensively and certainly contributes a lot more to the physical game.)

No, I just put guys in as I think of them. Maybe you can take something subconsciously from that, but nothing was intended from the order. I said that in the day 1 thread, which is in Prospects / In The System

[Amebushi]

This was a tough one for me. I went with OJ because he is the most likely to play in the bigs this year. I really like Woo though. I think long term he is going to surprise a lot of people. I got to see him play live in the Canada vs Russia series and was very impressed. The kid hits like a truck, skates well and has better hands than advertised. He may take another year or two to develop so he can play at the pro levels but when he gets there we will be very happy about it. Here is to hoping that this is the year OJ steps up and makes a difference

woo can still play in jumior that's why  and he currently playing in the summer junior tournament ,,  and toni uttoneon  , could be ranked right behind woo soon

Malone nor Manukyan aren't likely to get significant votes until around 15 polls later, you can be sure of that.

 

Guys like Rathbone and Lockwood will get votes very soon, so for fairness of the poll I think you should definitely have them in soon. Just my 2 cents!

I'm going with Hoglander here. I can see why people would go with Juolevi, but I don't think any other fanbase other than ours would choose Juolevi over Hoglander right now.

 

Essentially I don't think any teams right now would trade late first round value for Juolevi, given his injury last year.

 

Also VERY surprised to see how little Jett Woo is being voted for. I always like to see how CDC's rankings stack up with HF's. Jett Woo was #4 on their list but only has 2/66 votes here. Same with Hoglander above, I think Jett Woo right now has late first rounder value, and I don't see why so many people are voting for Hoglander instead of Woo, given that they were drafted around the same spot, and Woo just had an incredible year.

I have a feeling it's the "shiny new toy" syndrome.
