Canada
Carter Sotheran
Transition specialist with surprising mobility and intelligence for his size. Developing consistency is key, but could be a fringe second-pair defenceman down the line.
Matteo Mann
A massive shutdown defenseman with a long reach. He has the size and strength to potentially provide fantasy value with hits and blocks—minimal offensive ability.
Dylan MacKinnon
Raw two-way blue-liner with solid defensive habits and shutdown tools. On-puck game and decision-making are concerns, but has the tools to become a high-end, bottom-pair defenseman.
Justin Gill
A strong middle-six center with a good hockey IQ that helps him create offense for himself and his teammates. He is also good in transition and can offer a good mix of goals and assists for category-based fantasy leagues.
Cooper Foster
A more diminutive but elusive playmaker with an intense and high motor. Deceptive skill with middle-six upside.
Joe Vrbetic
A massive netminder with raw athleticism.
Kalem Parker
A two-way defender with the potential to become a third pairing defenseman with penalty killing usage.
Akil Thomas
Highly skilled and very fast center despite a lower than average size. Great puck control abilities. Much better and stronger forechecker than his size would suggest.
Zachary Bolduc
Goalscoring winger with a heavy shot. He plays a physical game and has an ease at causing turnovers.
Kaedan Korczak
He projects to be a stay-at-home defender that could produce peripheral stats in multi-category league settings. However, he possesses all of the tools to eventually put up decent numbers if he continues his current trajectory.
