Here are the Top 50 prospect defensemen to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – May edition!

But first – coming out on June 1 (10 days!) – The 20th Annual Fantasy Prospects Report! The lowdown on 100 draftees and over 400 drafted prospects – from a fantasy hockey standpoint. Pick it up here, or get it with the Fantasy Guide for an extra $2 as part of our Keeper League Pack here. Or better yet, for even more savings, subscribe here. Subscribers will get an early look at and beta test our upcoming online draft list!

Prospects ranked between +/-5.0 ratings of each other should be considered equal value, and you would value them based on your team needs (can wait for bigger upside, or take bigger risks, or lock in the sure thing with lower upside)
