Here are the top 200 prospect forwards to own in your points-only keeper leagues – September edition!

Not much changing this month, as I present to you the last rankings for prospect forwards that do not include the 2020 draftees. Next month – Alexis debuts! How does he stack up against Kaprizov? Be sure to come back and find out.

As always, players between +/-5.0 rating points of each other should be considered equal value and at that point become a matter of team need or personal preference. I look at wait time, upside, likelihood of actually becoming an NHL regular, their likely production (3YP) and their age. o=offensive forward t=two-way p=power forward os=offensive, but small.
