Looking Back…at April, 2010 Top Prospects

Looking through the Rankings archives…back to April 2010 and the fantasy hype surrounding one Nikita Filatov.
The American philosopher George Santayana famously said "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." It is one of the most recognizable quotes in history, asking us to remember the past, or risk making the same mistakes in our future.

I cannot confirm or deny if George meant this as a founding principle of fantasy hockey (maybe he was concerned with landing a strong keeper centerman in the late 1890s?). It's message undoubtedly rings true in all walks of life. Today I want to apply it to fantasy rankings, and the importance of understanding our errors of yesteryear, so we can aim to value players more appropriately in the future.
