A power forward with soft hands but perhaps a limited offensive ceiling at the next level.
Powerful winger with a great shot and a nose for the net. Needs to add quickness but already moves well for a player his size and could develop into a unique scoring threat in the NHL.
A smooth skating, aggressive netminder that is prone to letting the leaky one through.
A shifty, intelligent forward that can punish unsuspecting defensemen with his shot
Powerful scoring winger with detailed off-puck movement in the offensive zone. Needs to stay engaged and improve his decision-making, but has potential as a second-line sniper.
High IQ, pro-ready 2-way forward.
Excellent shutdown defender with good offensive instincts. Fell in the draft due to size concerns and puck management issues, particularly on offence and during breakouts, but he has shown promising growth in these areas over the last couple years.
Big winger who can score, middle-six upside if he can round out his game
A small goal-scoring winger with lethal wrist shot and good playmaking abilities. A very good skater who gives great effort in his play without the puck. Long-term project with top-nine potential down the road.
