    Dante Fabbro ??

    • Dobber 2016-08-11 at 08:30

      You think he’ll be up quickly? After seeing how long we’re waiting on Schmaltz? And Walman and Vannelli?
      In my league (which is very deep) I pretty much have a “no 18-year-old defenseman” policy when drafting. The wait is too long.

      • LAKings 2016-08-11 at 11:15

        Fabbro has been drafted by Nashville, not St.Louis ;-)

        • Dobber 2016-08-11 at 11:20

          LOL how many times have I done that? A million? Though usually I catch it while it’s in my head and before it gets typed. Fabbri on the brain, subconsciously I guess?
          But Nashville is even worse for taking dmen slowly

    Keeper, Provolov or Theodore ?!?!?!?

    • R McGinnis 2016-08-22 at 14:14

      Yikes. Tough call. I think Provolov has better upside but Theodore is ready to put up decent points this year, especially if Fowler ends up getting dealt for a forward.

  3. Jeff 2016-08-15 at 13:47

    Masin anywhere on there? I think he is better than Bear among others..

  4. R McGinnis 2016-08-22 at 12:59

    Stecher is a better NHL prospect than Subban for Vancouver. I’d be tempted to put Stecher in Subban’s spot, Subban in Larsen’s spot and drop Larsen from consideration since he’s not really a prospect.

      Forsling was traded to the Hawks.

    Travis Dermott seem to be a really good 2 way defensemen with a nice offensive touch. Can he climb the ranking ? Do he deserved to be in this list like juulsen, Bear, Larsen etc. And more important, do you guys think he can be a dominant player at the NHL level?!

    • Dobber 2016-09-11 at 20:03

      Dermott is 59th, he’ll move up, give him time
