It is difficult to grade each Ottawa Senators prospect on an individual level, with so many players fitting into the same ‘tiers’ as their peers.
With this in mind, we here at SenShot have decided to have a go at creating the Senators’ 2019/20 Prospect Pyramid – an idea originally created in 2016 by Sportsnet writer and Toronto Maple Leafs fans Steve Dangle.
Dangle created different tiers that prospects would fit into, based on their projected place within an NHL roster.
With this, rather than having players listed in a specific order, something that fans would undoubtedly disagree on for a whole range of reasons, players that are deemed to be of a similar level have been placed together in their respective tiers.
