Defensemen
Shai Buium
Mobile offensive defenseman with good size who's defensive game improved greatly in the NCAA. His upside remains modest at best, especially in multicategory leagues.
Jake Furlong
Reliable two-way defender who moves the puck efficiently. Has potential as a bottom-of-the-lineup NHL defenseman.
Gannon Laroque
A hard-nosed, physical defender with a potentially burgeoning offensive game.
Kirill Kirsanov
Cerebral defensive defenceman who is responsible in his own end and has a good stick. Can distribute the puck, indicating moderate offensive upside.
Jacob Moverare
Moverare has the skill, size and instincts to be an NHL defenseman, but at this point he looks like he will be more defensive than offensive.
Nikolai Makarov
Large defenseman who plays a well-rounded game. Can move well on his feet and make smart plays on transition. Not biggest offensive producer, but uses his size to his advantage defensively, using his body and long stick to break up plays.
Semyon Chistyakov
Stout defender boasting a versatile 2-way skillset.
Marc Del Gaizo
Offensive-minded defenseman fit for a bottom pairing and 2nd powerplay unit
Adam Wilsby
Offensive defender with second powerplay potential.
Jérémy Davies
Unheralded, but rapidly developing offensive defenseman on the small side with a great work ethic.
