Hockey's Future Organization Rankings, Fall 2011 1-10I don't think prospect rankings are that precise but the Leafs falling in the top third strikes me as about right.Reimer and Gardiner will very likely 'graduate' from consideration by HF next season, so the Leafs may be hard pressed to stay up in those rankings when that happens.The key comment I've seen and one many would acknowledge is that (maybe beyond Reimer/Gardiner), their pipeline is light in true/safe blue chippers - guys that have a good shot to be elite.Regardless, the ranking is a credit to Burke.
I was going through these old posts. Interesting that 5 years ago the Leafs were at 8th. So it seems that either the Leafs have failed to capitalize on fairly high rankings, or the rankings really have little to no viability when it comes to projecting future success.
