Canada
Ryker Evans
A great skating, puck-moving defenseman who plays with an edge. A good multi-cat candidate who still flies under the radar in most circles.
Shane Wright
Highly skilled center that can do it all. Strong skater with great vision, an excellent shot, and the intelligence to impact the game in all areas. A potential franchise cornerstone.
Macklin Celebrini
Exceptional rush offense creator with a solid base of pro-ready tools. Defensively sound, creative and agile, with a knack for winning board battles. Projects as a top-line, do-it-all center at the NHL level.
Brandt Clarke
A dynamic offensive defender who could have the highest ceiling of any player in the 2021 draft class. He has good size but needs to fill out his frame and his skating is elite. A potential number one defenseman in the future.
Taylor Makar
High-energy depth forward who can produce moderately without special teams usage
Olen Zellweger
Puck rushing defenseman with outstanding skating ability. His well-rounded games gives him potential as a top-four defender in the NHL.
Matthew Poitras
Hard-working two-way forward with the skill to capitalize on opposing mistakes. Already displays a lot of pro-level habits and projects as a reliable NHL forward with secondary scoring ability.
John Ludvig
Old-school defensive defenseman who can take care of his own zone. Upside for leagues that include shot blocked, hits and PIMs.
Kevin Mandolese
Big goalie with quick reflexes. Lateral mobility sometimes a question but can make up for it with strong positioning and instincts.
Justin Robidas
Undersized but intelligent center who plays a well-rounded game. Will need to add pace to his game to succeed at the next level but he has the hockey sense to play in the NHL.
