Last year I would have said Calvert, but now he's drafted and in with a chance of the WJC camp, I can't say that anymore.
Now I'd say Glennie is our most underated prospect, his speed this year in unreal, peopel who don't watch the Wheaties tend to think he only shines because he plays with Schenn, but that's not true, he was a scoring star in AAA on his own. He's such a different prospect than Schenn, not as durable and 2 way, higher speed and skill, more of a gaborik/Selanne type than Iginla/Messier. If he doesn't go top 20, someone is getting a hell of a bargain!!!
Jonathan Carlsson of Brynas IF looks like a pretty solid one.

By the way, when in the hell did he convert to D man? I don't see anything good about him...
He played D for a game or 2 in pre season, but he's back to playing wing now. Turning into a pretty useful fighter, rated by his WK teammates as our best fighter...
Well, I've seen plenty of love from other fans of Doughty and Moller. Simmonds is not given a lot of credit but this kid is getting chance after chance due to his excellent effort on the forecheck. He seems to do well with any linemates to, he has been put on different lines throughout the season and he always plays his game. He can fight, and plays the body well for a guy who has trouble putting weight and muscle on, plus he has pretty good hands, check out his shoot-out goal.
Also, Justin Azevedo recently joined the AHL affiliate in Manchester. He had 3 assists his first game and recently scored the only goal in the shootout to win the game while Bernier posted a shutout.

He was a 2nd round pick back in 06, yet no one ever talks about him except a little bit every now and then on the Wings board.. He has 1st line potential IMO... I'm really looking forward to next season to see what he can do in the AHL/NHL...
Timo Pielmeier doesn't get a lot of press in the Shark system, but he seems like a good prospect. His problem is being buried in the heap of goalie prospects.
Steve Zalewski and Jamie McGinn also look like they could be good 2-way players for the Sharks on their 2nd/3rd lines in teh future. Kind of a Torrey Mitchell mold of player.
