Top 200 Fantasy Prospect Forwards – February 2017
Dobber
2017-02-10
The Top 200 forwards to own in your points-only fantasy hockey keeper leagues – February edition.
This ranking is for full keeper formats, points-only. It weighs upside with wait time and certainty, as well as the team's depth chart (and the politics therein), plus a small factor for immediate help (if he's in the league now, he's helping). Keep in mind that +/- 5.0 ratings points should be treated as an equal player, as it all depends on your needs and personal tastes (i.e. willing to wait years for a stud, or needing help sooner so would prefer a lower ceiling, etc.).
Check back tomorrow for the Top 50 defensemen…

Do you have any updates on Reway as far as his health? I’m hoping he can get healthy enough to live a normal life.
Last I heard was that he still hopes to play again, but it’s not assured. I had hoped to hear more by now, so it’s concerning
Thoughts on Kaprizov? If his contract were up this year in the K, where would you rank him? Also, did you ever consider making a prospect goalies rank? I know in the top 100 on goalie post they are thrown in there but not specifically just them.
Kaprizov would be Top 20 easily if that were hte case.
I do have prospect goalie rankings – new ones every three or four months. Just click the rankings link in the main menu and scroll down
Is there a reason Sebastian Aho (CAR) isn’t on this list?
He graduated a month or two ago. If a young rookie in the NHL isn’t on this list – he obviously should be, or he’s been graduated
