THE SPNHL S45 PRE-DRAFT RANKING LIST

Now that all signups are done, I can finally give you guys an updated ranking for this season.

I’d like to reiterate that making this list was not only a chore, but extremely hard to do. I couldn’t dwell too hard on possibly moving guys up or down a few spots since each of you offer something unique on the ice that other players don’t.

For those players that I don’t know, I had to rank strictly off research alone, don’t take it personal. If I ranked you too low compared to what you think than just consider it a blessing, chances are you will get drafted lower which in turn makes you that much more valuable during this season.

For the players I do know, sorry if you don’t like your ranking, but suck it up and prove me wrong this season lol.

Biggest change I’d like to point out is that I moved Bartlett from #1 to #21 because he refused forward and dropped availability. Troll move bruh.

Players highlighted in yellow are your GM’s for this season.

21Bartlett–67LDMultiple award winner last season, trolled and refused forward and put 4 a week as avail, had to take him out of the #1 position. Will still be one of the better D this season.

23j_sherminatorCStrong player, don’t know him well but I do know if you’re playing against him it wont be an easy game

30Jcpens22LWGood LW who can bury the puck with the best of them with the right opportunity.
31SniiiiderRWScores a lot, loves to shoot the puck. If you are needing a goal scorer in the 3rd round he would be a good choice.
32zqturnCTalented forward with good thumbs, paired with the right people and this guy could be a 3.5ppg player
33Curtisx18xCFormer GM and cup champion, solid all-around player. Can fill any void you have on your roster.
34ItsBinkleeGStrong stats in VGNHL this season, also has strong stats in LGAHL.
35Bray4x_FybGStrong stats in VGNHL this season, has respectable LG stats as well.
36Pistolpete_7788LDThis guy, greasy as they come. Has 847 SP games under his belt and has a 2.6ppg at forward and 1.3ppg at D, always a great guy to have on your team.
37JonTurner15-LDKids a troll but he plays goalie well and can surprisingly score goals (with the right teammates around him)
38FreezemothasuckaLWPlay this guy anywhere and you’ll be happy you have him, one of the more underrated players in SP
39xShxyneRDSolid RD who is offensively talented, good guy to have on the starting roster.
40xSalda-LWSneaky good LW who can score clutch goals, also not a bad dman when needed.
41xFlashifyG81.3 sv% in VGNHL, 82.2sv% in CNC, good G stats.’
42xshepxrdCTypically a dman, chose to go forward this season. Shep will get it done in any position though so don’t sleep on this guy.
43NowYoDeadCOne of the top Dmen last season on a below average team. Highly dependable and can play F well too.
44Faaa_KueueLDNot familiar with this player but his SP stats are solid, will likely be a good starting LD
45korrowanLDSolid LD who typically plays a strong physical game, also good at making the first pass out of the zone.
46Eggman–1LDSkilled LD who can play a shutdown role well, took his team to the cup finals last season after having a shaky start. One of the GMs this season.
47Blade0MuffinGSneaky strong G for a long time but is now known as a starting G in SP. Look for his name when it comes time to picking your goalie.
48LiljxgrenGHad very good stats last season in SP although only a limited number of games, his avail isn’t the best but I wouldn’t wait too long to pick this guy.
49Spelliscy_21LWStrong LW who likes to move the puck, paired with the right guys and he could be one of the higher scoring players.
50II-megga-IIGNot familiar with this guy but he has experience playing G in the LGNHL, this ranking could be the one I wasn’t even close on getting right compared to the others
51EL_R_O_O_K_I_ERWSolid RW/C who is very dependable, if you have an open spot on the right side of the ice in the 4th-5th round this is who you’ll want
52SA_PliskinLWCommish, GM, Coach, and player, this guy does it all, he’s been here since day 1. He will be owning again this season after a disappointing last season so expect him to turn it around this season. Strong left side of the ice guy who also plays between the pipes well too.
53CClark1999-CIf you want ur discord to blow up this guy is a great pick, refused G this season but he is a solid forward or dman option.
54Heedlessjem48COne of the better 2nd centers to have on your team, can fit in on a top line role well.
55teamrun420RDSolid dman with offensive talent. You won’t be disappointed to have this guy on your team.
56xMarucci–RWLGAHL player, former SP player, haven’t seen him play but heard good things.
57iLLuSioNz_13RDNot too familiar with this guy but have played a few games with him, solid talent at D, could be another guy who I ranked too low though.
58premierplayerC2.1ppg in SP, 1.11ppg in VGNHL. Has that LGNHL experience so could be worth a lot higher in this ranking.
59SergeinRWSP legend, 976 career games played, great veteran presence to have on the squad and can put the puck in the net.
60Wheelchairdevon8GGoon of a dman, good goalie though, this guy could surprise some people between the pipes this season. One of the GMs this season.
61Tibod68GAnother solid G who I got to play VG with a few seasons ago, give this guy enough help and he will stop the first shot.
62Mikeyl92123lGMikey aka Sorokin aka icey, he had a hell of a season last year in nets and I expect the same this year. He will be a starter G this season for sure.
63CabRelixGI am not familiar with this goalie but he has strong LG experience, will likely be a starter.
64heroic_veil2RWSolid RW who can bury the puck, don’t count on him to carry your team but you can count on him to finish.
65xHAC_RamboRWHaven’t seen this guy play in a while, but from what I do remember he was a solid forward to have on your team, might make for a strong 3rd forward on your team.
66alonzi401GThis rap legend has played G for years, on the right team this guy will put up good numbers, don’t expect him to stop 30 shots a game though, he doesn’t have the patience for it.
67Shock_rGReturning GM for this season, solid goalie who can surprise you playing on the wings as well.
68Turdburgler169GTurdburglar makes his return to SP, solid goaltender that can get you a win with the proper defensive team in front of him.
69PhilmorinGPhilippe Morin, solid RD, Solid G, can fill any spot in the roster and do well. He signed up for G this season though and I expect him to do well. Could be the starter for your team or potentially take the spot from the guy you originally picked.
70Cuban1616LDPodcast extraordinaire, this owner had his struggles last season and is looking to bounce back. He is a ‘fill the void’ type of player who does what is best for his team at the time. Will likely play D most of the season though. One of the GMs this season.
71IvanthyGreatLWHe’s back! This guy took last season off after playing 30 seasons in a row (I think), he has the offensive talent to get pucks in the net and will make for a solid pickup in the 6th-7th round.
72GamertagrequirdCNot sure of his talent on C but is a very good RD option, makes the safe plays and keeps pucks away from his net.
73X7-Arrow-7XGI haven’t seen arrow play nets but I have seen him RD and he is solid, I’d be more likely to pick him for the RD role, but he may turn out to be a good G.
74JeanTheDon42RWI’ve only ever seen this guy play G, he had one season where he was an absolute beast in nets and stopping everything, the next season he was the complete opposite, he might be worth taking a chance on though for a potential starter
75Korrupto-777G75.5SV% in LGCHL, not too bad, worth a shot between the pipes.
76xPugz_420LWThis guy has typically been a depth roster player in SP. He gets points though so don’t sleep on him for too long.
77ShadykoLWI’ve seen Shady light it up in VGAHL scoring 80 goals one season, he hasn’t figured out SP enough yet to find that scoring touch but the potential is there
78AsianLover420__RWAsianLover is a troll of a human but he isn’t that bad of a player, he’s a solid depth player if you can handle the relentless chatter
79Fatalfire16LDI have this guy ranked low, but he could be a sneaky pick for a dman, his stats aren’t that hot but I’m not sure if he’s ever been put in a spot to excel yet in SP
80ThaFoSixRDFoxsix, he’s ranked kinda low but everyone wants this guy on their team, he can pay a shutdown role pretty well. Just don’t expect him to score any goals lol.
81sportsgeek5RDDecent defender, great guy to have if you need a spot filled, can play any position.
82Bayest_King_LuRD0.7ppg playing D in SP in previous seasons.
83Logan29-_-RWDon’t know this guy but he had some strong stats in the LGCHL, might be worth a risk on drafting higher.
84Thee_GhostyRWDon’t know this guy but he had some good stats in the LGCHL, might be worth a risk on drafting higher.
85JubjjjjjubRWJub has played on struggling teams only so far in his SP career, I think the potential of this guy could be higher but for now I only see him being a depth forward.
86PghFANATICLDDecent defender, if he stops making cross ice passes and just makes the simple one up the wall on neutral zone transitions this guys stock will go up big time. I’ve seen him turn over wayy too many pucks trying to make the long pass.
87AyyTrain1RWNot familiar with this player, saw he had a 2.6ppg in CNC, likely a good depth player.
88Dustyroads052GDusty isn’t too bad of a goalie but he’s been put in a lot of rough situations over the past few seasons, with a strong team in front of him this guy could perform much better.
89Terance2niceGDoesn’t have too hot of stats coming into this season, but could turn out to be a decent backup for the right team.
90Rathx4LWNot familiar with this guy, but he has played SP in seasons past and averaged a 1.8ppg, likely be a decent depth forward.
91LUYEYEP123C1.44ppg in VGNHL, 1.91ppg in VGAHL
92A-Mason_4LWKid sucks at hockey, don’t even know why he signed up
93Billyg7718RWNot familiar with this guy, but he has played SP in seasons past and averaged a 1.2ppg, likely be a decent depth forward.
94Lyrad99RWNot familiar with this guy, but he has played SP in seasons past and averaged a 1.1ppg, likely be a decent depth forward.
95Martok77GPoor Martok had a real rough season last year, he deserves a chance on a team that hasn’t sold.
96LaterSmittyRWThis guy had a 5.2ppg in VGAHL in the one season he played, there could be some real potential in this guy and this ranking may be up there in one of the worst I’ve done.
97Savage_Eze26LDThis guy played LGCHL and averaged a 0.71ppg on D, I’m thinking he’s a 3rd-4th dman for teams.
98Mr-_-goobsRDHis SP stats aren’t too hot but we know he will show up to play, another guy who would be a 3rd-4th dman on teams.
99bg9m9rRWThis guy has VGNHL experience, 1.85ppg. Could be worth taking a risk with a 6th roundish pick.
100DooteeesG70.5 sv% in Club games.
101Washko86CThis guy has VGNHL experience, 1.81ppg. Could be worth taking a risk with a 6th roundish pick.
102Maintenance_84LWThis guy has a 2.95 ppg in CNC, could be ranked too low as well, might be worth a higher pick.
103Jockey138RW2.34ppg in CNC, could be a solid option as a 4th-5th forward.
104FlowSoCleanLDLGCHL 0.72ppg player, CNC 1.97ppg player, might be a good 3rd-4th dman.
105VBumqs-LWCould only find EASHL stats for this guy and they’re 3.82ppg. He might be a lot better than he’s ranked but it’s hard to judge strictly based off the EASHL stats.
106reallUncleLarryRWCould only find EASHL stats for this guy and they’re 3.41ppg. He might be a lot better than he’s ranked but it’s hard to judge strictly based off the EASHL stats.
107ImOnA_PlainLD0.48ppg in VGNHL in an older season, might make for a solid 3-4th dman.
108NomoderationRWCould only find EASHL stats for this guy and they’re 1.85ppg. Can’t make a real good judgment based on those stats.
109Jets76-bradyk14RDLGCHL 0.75ppg, CNC 0.99ppg, this guy will show up to play though so he may be worth taking over some of the guys ranked around him here.
110LispDogeC1.55ppg in CNC, nothing too special about those stats, depth forward is what I’d pick him to be.
111Complexitii-LWNot many games played in league I looked up, he was committed to playing on a struggling Philadelphia team last season though, can count on him to fill voids.
112Crazyshow1414LDThis guy signed up twice I think under 2 different names, could be a troll. 1.78ppg in CNC, 2.53ppg in EASHL.
113X3_Svechnikov_X7GI think this guy recently changed his gamertag but I don’t know what it used to be. Could only find EASHL stats which are 2.59ppg
114xGilmour93GThis guy could be another troll, he was recently banned from VG under the tag Newfoundgamer88. 2.02ppg in LGCHL though, didn’t see any goalie stats.
115SpinnermcgeeG71.6 Sv% in LGCHL, will likely be a backup goalie this season.
116Pc3poseidonLD0,83ppg in CNC, this guy looks to be a depth dman.
117RiCKYxBoBBYjrRW2.66ppg in EASHL
118LieutenantemuRW2.57ppg in EASHL
119Foxl14lLW2.42ppg in EASHL
120X_apex-killa_XLWStats are from playing defense in LGCHL
121Race2ChaseeLD2.03ppg in EASHL
122Play-boypaul420LD0.87 in EASHL
123SourrrBHLW1.63ppg in EASHL
124NyfrijolesLD0.86ppg in EASHL
125Troyuh-_-COnly 4 games played, tough -13 in those games.
126Ndirishman22LDsome tough looking stats in LG and VG, but he’s played VGNHL and LGAHL so there is possible hidden talent behind those numbers.
127CTN_LaneybooRW1.06ppg in EASHL
128Mgm_2425LW1.0ppg in EASHL
129Beeper_tha_1st_aRDOnly 9 games in SP on D with a 0.2ppg
