As the Class of 2012 draws to a close, a combination of current talent and future potential has been careful weighed to create the Top 50 Canadians by Position. All prospects were reviewed via in person at a gym, live webcast, and/or archived video. Similar to past analyses, the best Canadian prospects were first classified into a specific position and then placed in order next to their peers.

Year of high school or CEGEP is listed after each prospect’s unofficial height. No overaged players were included. This is not an equivalent to the top 50 overall prospects in the Class of 2012. Any commitments, both signed and verbal, have been designated in BOLD next to the prospect’s name.
