Defensemen
Paul Fischer
A reliable, defense-minded defenseman.
Tom Willander
Fleet-footed right-handed defenseman who excels defensively. Limited puck skills, but has second-pairing upside in the right hands.
Gabriel Eliasson
A violent hulking defenseman who moves well but just about every habit in his game needs to progress significantly for him to reach an NHL caliber.
Maksymilian Szuber
The big defenseman sees the ice very well and plays a strong all-around game.
Michael Benning
A shifty defender out of the AJHL, Benning is a prototypical modern-day blueliner. He has the ability to skate, make a good first pass and create in transition.
Matvei Shuravin
A large defenseman that can skate well and shut down opponents at a high level. His offensive and transition game are in question but considering his strong skating foundation Shuravin could develop into a competent middle-pairing defenseman who can pitch in offensively.
Atro Leppänen
A dynamic, late-blooming, left-shot depth defenseman who plays a high-risk, high-reward game style. He struggles defensively, but his offensive game is intriguing.
Blake Smith
A big, rugged, smooth-skating defenseman who can fight and hit.
Zeev Buium
A tremendous skater who uses his mobility to create consistent advantages on both sides of the puck.
