With the 2023 NHL Trade Deadline come and gone, team's prospect pools are now locked until the Entry Draft.
Besides the off-season, the Draft will be the next time of season when teams those assets are re-evaluated to either be expendable, or part of their future.
The Athletic recently re-ranked every prospect pool by strength, giving us insight into which team's have a future to be excited about.

Prior to the season, the Bruins held the last place spot in the NHL, but have now improved to 30th. Still, not great but there's some solace in the fact that draft picks are performing well.
The Athletic ranked Boston's prospects as follows:
1. Fabian Lysell (F) - AHL 2. Mason Lohrei (D) - NCAA 3. Matthew Poitras (F) - OHL 4. Jakub Lauko (F) - AHL 5. Georgi Merkulov (F) - AHL 6. Riley Duran (F) - NCAA 7. Kyle Keyser (G) - AHL 8. John Beecher (F) - AHL 9. Brett Harrison (F) - OHL 10. Trevor Kuntar (F) - NCAA
