Toronto Maple Leafs' Top Prospects

This will probably be part of the FTB, but I'm up late and an eager beaver so here it is. Hockey Futures isn't always the most reliable, but what this does show is we are starting to get some organizational depth. The importance of that should not be underestimated.

I look forward to seeing many of these guys in the lineup in years to come.

It’s nice to see Bozak and Stralberg getting some love finally.

Stålberg getting love?

How is going from the 6th ranked prospect to the 5th ranked prospect getting love “finally”?

He was on their radar before this release, but the things they’re saying are growing more favourable.

I love the whole “Copyright 2009 Hockey’s Future. Do not reprint or otherwise duplicate without permission of the editorial staff.” thing at the end. Heaven knows half the stuff they’ve said has been said elsewhere repeatedly.

The only one mentioned on that list that I haven’t written about a lot is Frattin – and that’s mainly because he hasn’t done much in the NCAA thus far.

I'm pretty sure he's talking about the Leafs.

That sounds like more love.

Dude, you gotta relax.

It was late, and I wasn’t really comparing what they were saying about Stralberg now to what they were saying earlier. I was mostly just commenting on how it’s nice to see his name getting mentioned in a more promising way than other people like Dale Mitchell, Hanson, etc. I believe he will be the better player than most of the players in the Leafs system, partly because of your articles. That’s it.

Go Stalberg

A new big scoring Swede would help somewhat to fill in that “13”-shaped hole in my heart.

I hear you, man. I am also hopeful for Bozak taking a piece of my heart.

I jst have this feeling about Bozak, despite never having seen him play or even seeing a you tube video of him.
Burke doesn’t give a NCAA free agent a big contract for nothing.
