The more they switch the rankings continuously (See Taylor v Tyler and Tavares "could" lose his number one status) the more hype they build and more views for their draft coverage. Kind of a sham...and shame.

ummm....yea...


Or maybe they just change the rankings based on play...no that couldnt possibly be. Everything is a conspiracy these days.

NHL Central Scouting ranks Seth Jones No. 1 at mid-term. Nate MacKinnon is 2, Jonathan Drouin is 3, Sean Monahan is 4, Hunter Shinkaruk is 5

this Shinkaruk kid has a slight Wendel-like bit of insanity and pain tolerance to him...

he played with them a bit yesterday, too. They're trying out different guys at different positions. Don't read too much into it.

Frattin's only been playing with 4th liners. That's something you can read into.

So why isn't the second top scoring draft eligible guy at the WJC's with the second best face-off record in the whole tournament, who was his teams top PKer and is currently on an almost PPG pace in the fourth best men's league in the world who also happens to be two weeks from being in the 2014 draft and is 6'2 215 already not in the top-5?

2004 Pekka Rinne was drafted in the 8th round.



That same draft, Montoya, Dubnyk, Schwarz, were taken in the first round.


Other loser goalies were also drafted before Rinne.


Just because Gibson was drafted in the 2nd round and had a solid WJC, doesn't mean he's going to be some great goalie..
