Who do you think are the top 5 drafted prospects not currently playing in the NHL?

Kuznetsov

everyone else

Honestly, its kind of a vague question. You could start listing off guys who were drafted recently as assume they are the "best" prospect not playing. I can also think of guys off the top of my head like Omark and Karri Ramo who are still considered prospects to some extent not playing in the NHL.

G-Rask, Halak, Schneider

I would say Kuznetsov, Strome, Scheifele, Forsberg, Bjugstad at forward. Rielly, Murray, Trouba at D.

Murray, Reilly, Strome, Schiefele, Trouba

-Many are high on Kuz but I don't get to see him so I'm not as confident to comment on him

-Bjugstad is a good bet to be a solid NHLer but I'm a bit concerned about his lack of domination in the NCAA this year...he should be dominating

-Jaskin is starting to make a case for himself

-Malcom Subban could be a darkhorse here

Kuznetsov
Strome
Rielly
Bjugstad
Scheifele
Murray
Forsberg

Nyquist should be at the top of this list in my opinion.. I'm also going to take a long shot on this one and put Brett Connolly on this list aswell, have a feeling about this kid a few years from now.. Sleeper to look out for a few years down the road, Tyler Toffoli..

Good call, the Wings are babying Nyquist and he gets some time in the NHL so I didn't put him on my list. I consider him NHL ready, while the others are not or are committed to other teams in different leagues.

Aside some of the others who've been mentioned, I'd like to drop Ty Rattie's name into the mix.
