United States of America
Cooper Simpson
A potential dynamic offensive weapon, thanks to his shot, hands, creativity, and vision, though will have to adjust his mentality and approach to reach that ceiling.
Isaac Howard
A gifted offensive winger with great puck skills and a quick release. Needs to get stronger but has top-six upside at the NHL level.
Joseph Willis
An intelligent two-way forward with play-driving upside and a third-line ceiling.
Jack Murtagh
A hard-working, straight-lines checking forward, Murtagh has all the makings of a dependable, middle-six forward.
Devin Kaplan
Has the size and hockey sense to develop into a middle-six, two-way forward. He needs to improve his skating and the speed of his game. He has the potential to develop into a multi-category player. Patience in his development will be necessary, as players his size tend to take longer to reach their potential.
Quinn Hutson
A responsible, fast-paced winger with good defensive instincts, he is an above-average skater with an excellent set of hands and a pro-level shot. Unlike his younger brothers Cole and Lane, he has limited upside but could become a valuable bottom-six forward.
Beckett Hendrickson
A speedy, responsible center who plays well off the puck with a high hockey sense that allows him to create opportunities for himself and his linemates. Needs to develop physically—projects as a bottom-six forward.
Ashton Schultz
Skilled, smart but perimeter-leaning forward.
Brodie Ziemer
High-intensity forechecker with good hands and a high-end shot. Refining his transition habits and learning to slow down the game could unlock middle-six upside.
Ryan Walsh
A playmaking center with the ability to generate offense and drive plays.
