United States of America
Sam Lipkin
A big skilled player who has a few years of development ahead of him, could be a dark horse.
Tyler Duke
Undersized but tenacious defender with good puck-moving ability. Strong skating ability helps to make up for size limitations.
Connor Kurth
A playmaking power-forward with exceptional hands.
Mac Swanson
Undersized, intelligent playmaker who has some hurdles to climb. Needs to improve his foot speed to have a shot at the NHL. Boom-or-bust long-term project with second-line upside.
Dylan Peterson
A center with all the tools and the physical gifts that you could ask for from skating to size. He projects to the NHL well, having the ability to play up and down the lineup and some ability to play all three forward positions.
Asher Barnett
A competitive, mobile, defense-minded defenseman with limited fantasy upside. Projects as a bottom pairing defenseman that can be used on the penalty kill.
Ty Murchison
A defensive-minded blueliner that relies upon his solid skating and physicality to rid the opponent of the puck. Lacking much offensive upside, Murchison caps out as a potential bottom-pairing or seventh NHL defenseman.
Damien Carfagna
A defense-minded defenseman who skates well and can carry the puck up ice and make smart passes.
Joey Larson
A late bloomer with the physical attributes to earn a look.
Tristan Broz
A well-rounded player that can generate offense with heads up passes and finish plays with an accurate shot. He is a decent skater who plays a responsible game and could develop into a secondary scoring option at the NHL level.
