The tacit leader of Team Canada stood at centre ice in Vancouver. Maybe he wasn’t wearing the “C” on his jersey but that didn’t matter. Everyone knew who the leader of this team was. Coming off a career season in goals, he took over the job of being the number one centre on Team Canada.
Here are the top 10 Hockey Prospects starting at #10 and ending at #1
Here are Hockey’s Top Prospects: 20-11
This is the third installation. The first was released last Thursday, the second was released on Saturday.
Here’s the second installment. 50-41 was released on Thursday.
I sincerely hope they enjoy doing so. Players who are currently NHL regulars (meaning they haven’t been sent to the AHL this season) and players who’ve played 82 NHL games, are not considered prospects.
In this installment, we’ll highlight the players whose values have gone up and down over the last few weeks in anticipation of the of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. This does take into account the CSB Midterms and Bob MacKenzie’s recent mid season top thirty including personal viewings of the different prospects.

News this week that Cody Hodgson would be ineligible to participate in the World Juniors was greeted with a light measure of panic by Team Canada watchers who were understandably distressed by the loss of a first line centre, top point producer and expected Captain. But even with Cody Hodgson, the Canadians were going to be in much tougher this year than in recent history.
Yesterday, Team Sweden announced their roster for the 2010 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship to be played December 26th to January 5th in Saskatoon – Regina. I’ll give you the roster before I break it down for analysis. Height, weight and hometown statistics are all courtesy of Elite Prospects.
Prospect watchers eagerly await and analyze each list that comes out. It’s the nature of the beast. They wanna know who’s up and who’s down.
