Finland
Anttoni Honka
Boom or bust type offensive defenseman with high upside.
Samu Salminen
A talented and smart forward who can affect the game all over the ice. He is a more than capable offensive player who can dish the puck with soft hands and pick corners with a nice shot. His skating is the issue but the center could be a steal in the third round.
Topias Vilén
Sturdy defense-minded defenseman with issues on the passing side. Strong but under-utilized shot, great anticipation and stick-checking off the rush. Likely a bottom-pair or depth defenseman, but could add tools to his game in the next few years.
Kasper Pikkarainen
Big, toolsy forward that works well in tight spaces.
Mikko Kokkonen
Reliable defender who prioritizes his own zone. Can move the puck but his overall offensive upside appears to be limited.
Antti Saarela
Complementary forward with middle-six upside. Has played center in junior but projects to be a winger at the pro level.
Petteri Rimpinen
A smaller netminder by goalie standards. Has posted impressive numbers at all Finnish levels.
Max Westergård
An undersized two-way winger that battles hard. Has the hockey IQ and skill to become a bottom-six forward.
