I know the guy has some potential but he did absolutely nothing since being drafted.
Is that another conspiracy from MR telling you guys who to vote for ?
I went with Racine once again, even though Hodges and the NCAA guys are great too... Bengtsson shouldn't be near those guys and NOT ahead !
A big DITTO on that about Bengtsson! I already feel that this kid was a bad draft choice! Had an abysmal year and is still somehow this high? Above guys like Racine (had a pretty darn good year), Hodges (our second highest pick this year) and like you said the NCAA guys (not overly spectacular btu at least they weren't horrible last year like Bengtsson).
Now I have no opinion about MR having something to do this, but I can't help but to wonder why this guy is even making our top 25 list. Maybe it's because he's swedish and swedish defensemen sound sexy these days but this kid has really done absolutely nothing to prove me wrong... and quite frankly just plain and simple nothing at all.
Jonathan Racine: Racine is quickly becoming my favorite prospect. His skating is supreme, his defensive awareness is solid, and he appears to be having fun on the ice. After the end of the second squad's ice time, Racine, along with Rasmus Bengtsson and Jonatan Nielsen, skated with the coaches. And his last name is pronounced Machine with a R, hence Racine.

Um, I didn't even vote in the #16 poll, so....slow your role, killer.
Apparently Bengtsson was a standout at the development camp, and since we know basically nothing about this guy unless someone has seen some of his USHL games, I can understand how his camp performance would have a significant impact.
I vote Brickley. He battled injuries last season but I think he's definitely the best player left here.
I dont know why there is so much talk about MR biasing people. I just go to the hockeysfuture site and read the reports and decide who sounds the best to me. And besides, this is really just a way to keep bored fans busy in the doldrums of July. It wont be long before the NFL and NHL are back and we have plenty to talk about. So just enjoy the process, make a case for who you voted for, and make fun of me when I screw stuff up like the title of the thread or adding Howden in to a poll when he was picked 10 picks ago, but there aint no need to get all up in MR's grill.
Went Delnov again....showed some serious skills at the World Championships (u18)...took some scouts by surprise. I think he's a pretty raw talent right now, but I think he has some serious upside....
Meh, I thought it was a harmless joke from BJ. Not a big deal. Im sure people do listen to his thoughts on prospects since he keeps closer tabs on them then most folks around here.
Went Megan here based on his solid season and prospect camp showing.
Also i know that no more prospects will be added, but would Logan Shaw not be in the 25?

I don't think there's any way Shaw is in the top 25. That's not necessarily a slight against him, our system is just that loaded though.
