7. Joseph Woll (G, 3rd Round, 62nd Overall in 2016)

Joseph Woll is the first goalie to make an appearance on this list. He was not on last year’s list – the only goalie on last year’s list was Garrett Sparks, who we ranked second and who is know in the NHL.

Woll was a 3rd round pick by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2016 draft, and is currently 20 years old.

Woll  has been, without a doubt, the most consistent goaltending prospect the Maple Leafs have. He’s gotten better each season since his draft year. In his third season with Boston College, he’s put together a record of 5-7-2 with a save percentage of .929 and a goals against average of 2.06.

With Frederik Andersen manning the crease for the foreseeable future, it’s more than likely the Leafs will let Woll play out the rest of his college career before bringing him to the pros.

Nevertheless, it’s important to have good goalie prospects because it can be not only the most important position to fill, but also the most difficult.
