Brodin's skating and his ability to process the game and retrieve pucks will make him a regular in the NHL sooner rather than later. Coyle is the prototypical power forward who excels at both ends of the ice with intelligence and playmaking ability. Also on the radar: Johan Larsson (56th overall, 2010). Total number of top prospects: 12 Also of note is the Sharks are ranked number 30th after the summers trades.
