Vegas Golden Knights prospects
Every player in the Vegas Golden Knights' system who still counts as a rookie, ranked by what he is likely to become: the odds he turns into an NHL regular, and how good the players most like him turned out to be. Draft position starts the estimate; what he does after the draft takes it over.

NHL odds are the chance he becomes a full-time NHL player — 200 games by age 26, or 100 by 27 for a goalie. Impact odds are the chance he becomes better than the typical regular at his position. WAR if he sticks is the middle outcome among his comparables who made it. The score is a percentile of the expected outcome across every prospect in the league, so forwards, defensemen and goalies sit on one scale. The rankings update every night.
