So in the interest of drawing fire from Frank's decision-making process (Leivo and Aaltonen are both 25 now), I will also post my list and enjoy the subsequent roast. I'm more of a projected ceiling (and associated probability), rather than who has played NHL minutes type of ranker. I also just plopped this out without looking at anything other than the eligibility list.1. Matthews2. Nylander3. Marner4. Rielly5. Liljegren6. Kapanen7. Dermott8. Johnsson9. Grundstrom10. Borgman11. Carrick12. Timashov13. Bracco14. Rosen15. Moore16. Brown17. Korshkov18. Engvall19. Sparks20. Brooks21. Dzierkals 22. Marchment23. Rasanen24. Nielsen25. Woll
Not a bad list. Brown is way too low for a guy who can conceivably score 20 goals again, but yeah he's probably maxed out at being the third liner he is now. Trevor Moore is only 1 year younger and still hasn't made the NHL- do you expect him to be better than a third-liner? I can understand having Timashov and Bracco ahead of him because they have higher ceilings (ie, 2nd line)- but I don't think their chances of hitting those ceilings are very high. I personally wouldn't put them ahead of Brown if, as you state, you also include associated probability- but maybe your probability is a bit rosier than mine.My list is coming in my next post so you can roast me right back.

I have Moore above Brown because have you seen Moore skate? Granted it's only been against AHL so far, but he's essentially left shot Brown with better puckhandling and much better wheels.I'm pretty high on both Bracco and Timashov. They're perimeter playmakers (which renders their smaller size less of a factor) and can both really hold the puck in traffic and have outstanding on-ice vision, which I put a good chunk of stock in.
