Hehe

Some DM me to update my precedent list done in January with a new list with the new prospect.
I limited myself to 50 players because I usually do it in the summer or at Christmas so more time to do my research check more clip and etc...

My background ;
I'm 22 year old , work in the Midget AAA team in Quebec City. I was a skills coach & scout in the Q last year. I'm specialist into the ''long term development'' of a player , in another word that I don't like , i'm a skills coach. My point of view is often dictated by the way the player use his skills to be efficient in a game. How he place his head to take information on ice? Where he put his puck around his body? Are he able to punch turn and make fake with it?

I'm not bilingual , far from that so I try to do my best.
Enjoy

Last List ;
Butch's Top 130 Prospects
Butch's top 150 Prospect List
Butch List 115
Butch's List of the top 175 Drafted Prospects


Few thoughts ;
Tim Stutzle gonna be a star in the league. He reminds me so much of David Pasternak with lesser shooting. He's not super fast or super strong , but he's dynamic enough with his crossover to be dangerous on the rush. He's puck placement around is body is Wonderfull , allow him to had more time on ice. Always the head inside the play , ready to control the game. His hands is pretty good and he can place the puck anywhere he want.

I'm from Qc and is not dishonour to Alex Lefrenière , but I see that Stuztle is far away than his higher ceiling than Lafrenière. I think Lafrenière will be a very good first liner, bring lot of passion and drive to the game but the way is take control of the game is more difficult to translate than Stutzle in 3 or 5 years.

Drysdale is a fantastic skater with a high IQ. All the tools to be a terrific defenseman close to the 4 young defenseman who's rock the league this season

Zegras was always in my favorite player, was in my top 3 last draft. His ability to control the game with that passing abilities is amazing

Raymond is a dynamic player who can easily create seperation in downlo and off the rush

Bowen Byram had a disappointing year, I was thinking that he was more dynamic but I was wrong. I think he will be a terrific player like Ryan Suter but he will not put a lot of point of board, especially with the D-Core of Colorado AVS. Still projecting him as top 20 defenseman in the league

Branstrom will rock the league with his particular game as defenseman. One of the best to beat player on his blue line which majority of defenseman are to scary to do. Skating is wow

Kaprizov will be a 60-70 point producer , I'm 100% sur of that. Want to make the difference

Caufield is the best IQ shooting on this board. His ability to change his angle using some tactique of Matthews(Switch leg) Laine (ride shot and rise one T) and Mackinnon (Inside shot in mouvement) is very very rare. I will score a lot of goals in the NHL because he understand the goalie

Matias Norlinder could be in the top 5 one year ago from now. His skills package is special.....Watch him

I project Sandin Bouchard Seider and Sodestrom to be solid defenseman in the NHL. I really like Bouchard since day one , his soft/smooth style of game combine with solid size with the ability to make magical pass is rare.

I had work a lot with Lappy last year. In believe in him like no one. What a young person! Passionate about the game. High end IQ with dynamic foot work. We work on his shoot a LOT and I'm proud that he had scored two goal already with his shooting tools.

Batherson is the next Mark Stone for me. You will want him on your team in Stanley cup final

I compare Nils Lunkvist to Andrei Markov.

I'm glad to see Jonathan Berggren doing well this season. He was in my top 10 two year ago and I'm confident that he will be able to be the Viktor Arvidsson in the Detroit lineup

Don't sleep on Joe Veleno. His game will be hard to develop but he will end up as a Patrice Bergeron style of player. I know we put that name often when we try to find comparable but he really think that the style of play and the speed of Joe Veleno can turn him into a good top 6 center

I'm high on Ryan Poehling since a long time. His situation with the Canadien cool me down but him still confident on him.

Norlinder va être meilleur que Romanov selon toi?

Norlinder a un meilleur upset offensif j’imagine

Je vois aussi que tu prefere drysdale a sandersen ! c’est quoi la difference selon toi entre les deux ?

Norlinder c'est un potentiel de 40 points par saison de façon régulière selon plusieurs scouts

Moi c'est voir Caufield meilleur que plein d'autre jeune qui me surprend.

Caufield a un talent pour faire le bon choix de tir face a un goaler qui ne s’apprend pas, aucun jeune joueur est proche de lui à ce niveau là
