Centers
Yegor Surin
An offensively gifted, gritty center that needs discipline to be more projectable.
Simon Zether
A defensive forward that grinds with the best of them, but needs to add some speed to his game.
Lucas Pettersson
At his best, an offensively gifted center with a high pace, well-rounded two-way game. Needs to show his best more consistently.
Kamil Bednarik
A strong, gritty, natural center with a decent playmaking touch. Still raw, but a safe bet.
Michael Hage
True dual-threat center with great details to his playmaking game. Second-line upside is attainable with work on his defending and engagement.
Jett Luchanko
High-motor forward with natural athletic abilities and a knack for middle drives. Limited puck skills, but projects as a top-nine energy winger.
Raoul Boilard
Faceoff specialist with great hockey sense, a strong motor and decent playmaking. Physical game and skating need work, but has upside as a middle-six defensive centre.
Miguel Marques
Middle-driven forward with triple-threat offensive skill and a great motor. Defensive and physical improvements could see him hit his top-six ceiling.
Cole Beaudoin
Strong, puck-cycling center with a good release. Has a high floor, but likely projects as a third-line power forward.
Calum Ritchie
Highly skilled and intelligent playmaking pivot who can play a physical game. Needs to add some quickness but he already processes the game at an elite level and has potential as a top-six NHL center who drives offense.
