Switzerland
Calvin Thürkauf
Big and powerful forward who can play both center and wing. Decent offensive skills but lacks high-end talent.
Basile Sansonnens
Big, mobile defensive defenseman that keeps the puck out of the net. Plays on the penalty kill, uses an active stick to prevent chances. Brings value to leagues that value takeaways, blocked shots.
Damien Riat
A good value pick for the Capitals. He appears to be a dangerous top six forward but time and increased competition is needed for him to continue developing.
Leon Muggli
Mature and smart left-handed defenceman who regularly wins battles against former NHLers. Lacks offensive pop, but should translate well to the NHL as a bottom-pair penalty-killer.
Tobias Geisser
Geisser is a big bodied defenseman and appears to have some untapped offense.
Gian Meier
A reliable defensive specialist who shone in a big role at the U18 Worlds.
Daniil Ustinkov
Smooth-skating two-way defenseman who excels on the breakout. Adding more aggressive offensive tendencies could solidify his middle-pair potential.
Leon Muggli
A smooth-skating, cerebral two-way defender that does a little bit of everything.
Tommaso De Luca
De Luca is a skilled forward who still needs to refine his game at higher paces but who could become a depth producer in the NHL with strong development.
Lian Bichsel
Massive, smooth-skating blue-liner with polished defensive habits. Offensive tools need some work but could easily become a top-four defensive defenseman.
