Centers
Benjamin Strinden
A solid offensive contributor who plays a sound defensive game. Dealt with injury issues in the past; definitely a long-term project.
Erik Påhlsson
A creative center with pro size, skill, and vision who plays a good 200-foot game that can contribute to the power play and penalty kill.
Caedan Bankier
Strong power forward with great size, which could be beneficial at the NHL level. He battles well along the boards and has strong puck-possession skills.
Jayden Grubbe
A reliable defensive player who excels in boxing out attackers and inhibiting cycle plays.
Berkly Catton
Catton stands out for his abundant dynamism, skill, and creativity, but his defensive engagement will need to take a few steps before he can make the jump to pro hockey.
Kaden Pitre
A defensive-minded center with a high motor who plays a physical game. Has flashed the ability to be a great two-way bottom-six player.
Timur Mukhanov
Diminutive forward with outstanding skating ability and good offensive vision. Lack of size and strength could hold him back, but he has the skill to drive offense at the pro level.
Yan Matveiko
A center that is showing signs of rapid development. Keep an eye on him.
Julius Sumpf
A draft-overager who added some offense and saw his name called. Likely middle-sixer at the professional level.
Philippe Daoust
Has good offensive instincts and controls the puck well. His size forces him to the perimeter where he might struggle to produce at even-strength as he becomes a pro.
