Here are the top prospect forwards to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – July edition!

But first, coming in three weeks (July 29), the 20th edition – Dobber’s Fantasy Hockey Guide! Buy it on its own here, or package it with the recently released Prospects Report here.

For this month, the draft picks from June are in! Misa makes his debut!

As always, players between +/- 5.0 rating points should be considered equal and at that point become a matter of personal preference (upside, certainty, wait time, injury risk, etc.)

Legend: FPR is their ranking for June’s Fantasy Prospects Report (available in the shop). o=offensive player, os=offensive but small, p=big forward or power forward, t=two-way
