Top 10 prospects of the Carolina Hurricanes

13 comments
  1. Does Nikishin still count as a prospect? He’s essentially a lock for the top 6 next year

  2. The first 3 are a lock to make the NHL eventually.

    I’m hoping Frolov becomes the same as well.

  3. Has a team ever cornered the market as much as the Canes have with u23 short RWers ?

  4. FUS is still only 19?! Truly had no idea. He already looked pretty good a year ago.

  5. I can see the first 8, with the understanding that we’re mostly talking about potential impact rather than NHL readiness/likelihood to play in the league (although Frolov, Ryabkin, and Limatov move up a few spots in that case). But under either measure I’m so confused by 9 and 10 – Fransen and Forsmark have only recently started showing flashes of bigger talent and still have a ways to go before they’re ready to enter the league. So I can’t see them being here ahead of, like, 5 or 6 other prospects in either potential or likelihood to play in the league.

  6. Newish to hockey. Been following last two years or so. Are the odds of a prospect making the nhl always so low? If so where do all the actual NHLers come from?

  7. Isn’t it crazy our next big “D” man on this list.. not hating but its a future I look forward to! LGC
