Canada
Maximus Wanner
A long-term project defenseman who has good mobility and plays a reliable defensive game in his own zone. Has not displayed much offence to this point.
Daylan Kuefler
Hard-hitting, shot-blocking, versatile forward who can be trusted in all situations.
Michael DiPietro
A slightly undersized but highly talented goaltender.
Ethan Samson
Offensive-minded and lanky blueliner who shows the willingness to jump into the attack. Capable of handling the point on a power play unit. He must work on his 200-foot game to become a full-time NHL defenseman.
Isaiah George
Smooth-skating two-way defenseman with above-average compete, smarts and puck-retrieving abilities. Needs to round out his offensive toolkit to ensure a top-four future.
Lukas Cormier
A well-rounded left-handed defenseman, who is an efficient puck mover.
Isaac Belliveau
An organizational depth defenseman, likely to stay in the minors. There is no fantasy value.
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.
Luke Prokop
Prototypical defense-minded defenseman.
Kevin Mandolese
Big goalie with quick reflexes. Lateral mobility sometimes a question but can make up for it with strong positioning and instincts.
