Alright Toronto Maple Leafs fans, it’s time to log on to Elite Prospects, search for some YouTube videos and make your own Top 25 list for this year’s young Leaf extravaganza.
Just like last year, we’ll run the community list on weekends and compare it against the official PPP list.
I don’t have any cool donated prizes to offer you like I did last year, but I do have a lot of Maple Leafs and hockey tchotchkes lying around my house, so if you want a mystery box I made by cleaning out my storage room feel free to leave your email on the form and maybe you’ll win some stuff.
The players on the list are ones that the Maple Leafs have signed to an NHL contract or hold the NHL rights to. This is why you’ll see Fabrice Herzog on the list, but not Justin Brazeau. There’s no right or wrong way to rank the players, it’s all up to how you feel. Are you looking solely at the impact they an make in the NHL right now or judging based on where their potential maxes out at.
UPDATE: please note that the list below and the Google Form contain Dakota Joshua, since his rights were traded after this post was made.
The form is the same Google Forms matrix we used last year. It’s not perfect, but it fits the budget.
If you’re ready to start voting, click here. Voting closes on July 19th.
Here’s the official list in the same order it is on the form for you to use to decide your voting:
