When the Toronto Maple Leafs drafted Fraser Minten with the 38th overall pick, many Leafs fans were some mixture of confused and underwhelmed. Part of the problem is there wasn’t as much hype about him as other prospects many of us were hoping to get. The other problem is, once people started looking up the basic information about him, it was clear he was taken a good chunk earlier than he was ranked.
Bob McKenzie’s had him the highest 47th, but his rankings are more predictions of where a player will go — not about how good a prospect will actually be.
