Prospects Rambling: Organizational rankings? Boss tells it like it is
Pilfering Nolan Patrick in the 2017 entry draft is just one of the many reasons the Philadelphia Flyers are No. 1 in Dobber's rankings of the 31 NHL teams' prospect pools. Fans love lists. In fact, the only thing they love more than reading lists is picking holes in [...]
2017 Organizational Prospects Rankings
2017 Organizational Prospects Rankings The long overdue DobberProspects Organizational Rankings has returned! Ranking prospects is a pretty subjective exercise; one person may have a very high opinion of a player, while another may have a rather low opinion of the same player.

The Flames called up Sam Bennett, who was in contention for the first overall pick a year ago. The North Bay Battalion held Bennett to just three assists and a minus-nine as they knocked out the Frontenacs in four games. The playoffs can make a prospect’s career but #SmallSampleSizes and Bennett did have 24 points in 11 games. Even with Calgary leaning on their young players, I think Bennett will take some time to get up to speed. Watch how he plays more than the points.
Instead of playing him right away, they decided to leave Markus Granlund in and he rewarded them with the first two goal game of the 21 year old’s career. While he has five points in his last six games, he really doesn’t have the same skillset as his brother, and he is only getting around 11 minutes a game on a surprising Flames team. There is still time for Granlund to develop, but his upside is around 55 points and he is an underdog for a long-term spot in the Flame’s top-six.
