SJHN Daily: Steven Ellis’s Top-10 Sharks Prospects, How Hockey Operations Using AI
Daily Faceoff’s Steven Ellis surveyed the San Jose Sharks’ prospect pool.
What was his first takeaway?
“The future look bright, Sharks fans”.
Ellis compared the Sharks top-10 prospect duo of Sam Dickinson and Michael Misa, to their top-10 prospect duo from last summer – Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith. He sees both Dickinson and Misa’s chances of ending up in the NHL this season as pretty high.
Ellis also highlighted the San Jose Sharks’ biggest strength and weakness, as well as ranking the Sharks’ best prospects.
Following Misa and Dickinson come two goalies – Yaroslav Askarov at No. 3 and Josh Ravensbergen at No. 4.
“With ideal size and incredible athleticism, it’s safe to call Askarov the best goaltending prospect in the game today.
