Gino Reda is joined by Craig Button for a detailed break down of where each of the seven Canadian teams rank. For the entire Core 4 U-24 project, visit TSN.ca today and for the rest of the week.

I'm actually quite impressed with our depth in that regard.
Stop other teams don't worry about a core 4…that's a T.O thing and its dumb
I haven't given up on Chaz Lucius even though the pundits have. This guy is very talented.
Great comments as usual Mr. Button!
No mention of Kevin He, whose killing it right now in Niagara, and currently third most goals in the OHL. 17 G in 19 games (29 total points).
He and Yager could be a dangerous 1-2 punch in the Jets future.
Nikita Chibrikov is leading the moose in points. He’s 20 or 21 and no mention of him
Jets should be higher prospect rating wise.
1.Perfetti
2. Salmonsson
3. Yager
4. Lambert
5. Chibrikov
6. Barlow
7. Lucius
8.Milic/Divincentiis
9.Julien
10.Freijs
Missing a few guys, Nikita Chibrikov, and Ville Heinola are capable of stepping into the Jets lineup at any time, then there's Kevin He who's lighting up the OHL and Colby Barlow, who's having a bit of a slow season, but has a bright future as well
2:30 For anyone wondering our other 'B' rated prospects are Barlow, Chibrikov, and Freij. They have it on their website. (I think they forgot about my king Ville)
hmmm. Heinola is under 24.
I've never understood the hype about Perfetti.. I just don't see it
