Today, we just learned the Habs' ranking.
The Tricolore is ranked seventh among teams with the best prospect bank. Wow!
The criteria to be a prospect? To be 22 years old or less. So, according to Pronman, the CH's best youngster is Juraj Slafkovsky, followed by Cole Caufield, Kirby Dach, Kaiden Guhle and Justin Barron.
The Buffalo Sabres, Detroit Red Wings, New Jersey Devils, Anaheim Ducks, Ottawa Senators and Carolina Hurricanes are ahead of the Canadiens in Pronman's chart.
