Tier 3: Top-six forward, #2/3 defenceman, or middle-of-the-pack starting goalie.
Tier 4: Middle-six forward, second-pair defenceman, or bottom-10 starter in the league.
Tier 5: Either surefire bottom-six/third pair potential, or boom-or-bust upside swings for skaters. Likely backup or slim odds of being a high-end starter for goalies.
Tier 6: High likelihood bubble NHLer, or very slim chance of being a middle-six/second-pair/starter.
Tier 7: Unlikely to play an NHL game. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
