The biggest downside to Nybeck is that heвЂ™s 5-foot-8, 175 pounds, so itвЂ™s really a вЂњwait-and-seeвЂќ with him. His short-burst speed and agility make him unpredictable, and while heвЂ™s primarily a pass-first player, he has a powerful wrist shot that he can get off quickly. HeвЂ™s such a tough player to defend because he can beat you multiple ways. ItвЂ™s almost insulting to have Zion Nybeck on the fringe of the top-20 because this kidвЂ™s talent level is very high.

So, where will the newbies crack the list? How many of them will at all? Here are our takes on the 20 best prospects in the Hurricanes system right now, along with a short breakdown and NHL ETAs for each. We alternated picks, saying вЂњplayer X is my next best prospectвЂќ until we got to 20.В Brandon had the first pick вЂ“ and the odd numbers, and I had the evens. So, in a somewhat interesting way of going about this, we decided to effectively вЂњdraftвЂќ players.

For instance, Brandon didnвЂ™t have Aidan Hreschuk in his top 20, while I did.

We disagreed on whether Aleksi Heimosalmi or Scott Morrow was the better prospect. With that incredibly deep prospect pool and so many talented players with legitimate NHL upside, wenaturally had our differences on what players should be in вЂ“ especially with the newly drafted players. Seth Jarvis, Chicago Wolves (Todd Reicher/Rockford IceHogs) We started with a whopping 32 players that we thought deserved consideration, so simply narrowing this down to 20 was an exercise in itself.

ThatвЂ™s right вЂ“ 13 players were added to what was already added to an already deep class (for full breakdowns on all of those picks, make sure to check out my piece on each of them). The team obviously agreed as they selected defensemen with three of their first five picks and five overall amongst their NHL-record-tying 13 selections. For a look into a prospect group thatвЂ™s as loaded as it gets, myself and fellow THW contributor Brandon Stanley decided to compile a list of the top 20 prospects in the HurricanesвЂ™ system.ДЄhead of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, it was evident that the HurricanesвЂ™ defensive pipeline had begun to dry up a bit and that despite owner Tom DundonвЂ™s insistence on drafting forwards, it may be time to focus on the position. Shrewd drafting and a high priority placed on draft picks will do that. Despite the teamвЂ™s rise from afterthought to todayвЂ™s near-contender status, the system has remained stacked with talent throughout.

The Carolina Hurricanes prospect pool has consistently rated as one of the highest in the National Hockey League for years now.
