NHL Draft Rankings – ranking the prospects who haven’t been drafted yet.
The team at DobberProspects has brought back a popular post we do each year where we rank the top prospects for the upcoming NHL Entry Draft for fantasy hockey purposes. There are plenty of draft rankings available but this is the only place where you will find a ranking geared towards your fantasy hockey draft. [...]
The 2021 NHL Entry Draft is still a year and a half away but I feel like I already have a good idea of what the draft class looks like for European prospects and Finnish prospects in particular. I am planning on putting together a 2021 ranking of European prospects in the spring but [...]
Here is DobberProspects’ second ranking of European prospects for the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. This ranking was put together on November 2nd because from November 6th onwards, there will be a U18 Five Nations tournament and a U20 Four Nations tournament, and big international events like those could cause unwanted recency bias.

Here we are. Many players have cleaned out their lockers and are preparing for a massive offseason of training. Some are still fighting it out in their league playoffs, and a handful more are beginning the U18 Worlds which will be the final opportunity to impress the scouts before the combine. This edition [...]
Jack Hughes and Cole Caufield I’ve bumped the rankings up to the top 100 for this edition. This is how I like to work. As the year goes on I have opportunities to see more players more often. When I have a nice sample size to draw on, I can add [...]
