The OHL Prospects Blog Top 20 for the 2009 NHL Entry Draft

With the three contributors all dishing out their rankings for the 2009 NHL Entry draft, it is time for an inclusive Top 20.

Essentially what I've done here is taken the top 20 prospects off Sean, Ryan and my own list and put them into a spreadsheet, creating an average ranking for each prospect. If a player was absent on one of the top 20 list's, he received a 25 for that contributor. If two or more players' average ranking were the same, the player with the highest occurring individual rank from a contributor was placed first. If that was subsequently a tie, I went with the second highest individual ranking. Not a perfect science, but still gives you a fairly accurate averaged ranking.
