Chase Ierlan over Coletti is a joke.

Why worry? These lists are for fans and mean little else. Guarantee, they will look different at the end of the coming season.

I agree, media just piss me off with stupid picks. If u took chase off team he’s good don’t get me wrong but Hopkins would fall maybe 1 spot in preseason rankings, take off Coletti Army would fall 4 or 5 spots,

[Farfromgeneva]

Of course that’s a function of the team around them as much as the individual.

Correct... Irelan was at 52.2% and Marcel was at 49.9% last year.. Based on the 363 shots Marcel saw over 17 games, Irelan would saved an additional 8.44 goals or a .493 goals per game.

I think Melendez could be ranked a little higher no?

At some point if everyone should be higher we’re going to have to create a new number system or go to a BC/AD numerical system because 1 typically ends it…

Mackesy, Brandau and Lyons are in that mix.

[AreaLax]

Zappitello Will be in that 6-10 group

Michael Boehm completes the list?? That seems high, but I can not imagine him not making the list.

How does Princeton '23 have 5 of the top 50 players in the country and only go 8-7 with few, if any, good wins?

Why I was surprised to see English on the list. He had a rough year last year. He is completely capable of turning it around, but that is a big assumption

How is Spallina on list?

[Laxrules10]

Scott Cole must be in the 6 - 10 range.

Mule also pretty good last year

[Turnandrake]

Scott Cole………should be in the top 10

Goalie position was unsettled earlier on. Projected top 50 in 2024 doesn’t = top 50 in 2023.

Don't love the hype he gets, but he had 55 points as a freshman and it's not a leap of faith to think he'll get better as he gets older. You can argue he's not ranked right, but he's in the top 50 players in the country.
