Notes:
1) numbers in parenthesis are the players ranking at the beginning of season 6 (I did not do a list for season 7).
2) players that have a downward career trajectory, or have been moved to teams with weak training facilities (such as G. Goodhind) have been removed from consideration
3) NT chemistry has been factored in

If you have a player that should be included in this list let me know.

The Top 5 most improved over the past 2 seasons (non NT Players):
1) Gauthier 265 OR
