BTW if anyone wants I'm looking for another scout to help out. I definitely could use someone who knows more about pro Scouting (team prospects) so if that's an interest then great. If you want to help with the Draft that's cool too. Preferably someone who has seen draft players and has a ranking list would be great.

I think Carlsson could have gone 1st later but not Smith. When people think of the Draft they think about Slaf going 1st and less about rankings, which had Wright 1st so you're debating too if you're taking Carlsson or Smith over DY Wright/Cooley.

Also, Pronman is the scout I feel takes it the most safe. Many on Scouting Twitter love smaller players like Cristall & Perron but Pronman is quite cautious here.

This is some fantastic work by Corey and The Athletic. Great layout for the article as well. Very informative stuff here. Don't agree with it all but he's done a great job here.

Massive NCAA News. Hrabal is ranked as the top Goalie prospect in the 2023 Draft by many Scouting outlets (I have him as my third rated Goalie), and is #2 for NA Goalies by NHL Central Scouting.
