Top 50 Fantasy Prospect Defensemen – August 2024

2024-08-29
Here are the top 200 prospect forwards to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – August edition!
But first, the 19th annual Fantasy Hockey Guide was released just a couple of days ago. That’s right, I’ve earned your trust for 19 years. You can order your digital copy here for immediate download, or for another $5 you can get the Fantasy Prospects Report along with it (Value $14.99) here.
As always, players within +/-5.0 rating of each other should be considered equal value, and at that point become a matter of team needs (immediate help vs wait time, rebuilding vs. going for it, etc.) or personal preference.
