Trent Miner
Successful WHL, ECHL, and AHL netminder but limited track record as a starter.
Successful WHL, ECHL, and AHL netminder but limited track record as a starter.
Highly skilled and intelligent playmaking pivot who can play a physical game. Potential top-six NHL center who drives offense.
Talented playmaker with top-nine upside. Capable of playing both center and wing. Needs to stay healthy - has had a couple of serious injuries in the past.
A true Swiss Army Knife style player, St. Martin can play in any situation and play alongside bottom-six grinders or top-six scorers. His skating is one of his best attributes and could help him take the next leap in his game. He will need to improve most aspects of his game, especially his consistency, to make the NHL but as a player who went in the sixth round as an overager, St. Martin looks to be a nice upside bet.
Creative, relentless forward with decent but improvable puck skills. Still raw, but could develop into a potent top-six forward at the NHL level.
Strong two-way, puck-moving defenseman with good vision and some offensive upside. His ability to manipulate defenders to open a passing lane and create opportunities for his teammates helps to drive play for his team in every area of the ice. He has great discipline and uses his skating to help provide stability to the backend, allowing for consistently positive plus-minus statistics that can help contribute to leagues with that category.
Goal-scoring, two-way center with great compete and intensity. Needs to get comfortable slowing the pace of the game and to develop consistency, but could top out as a top-six forward.
Highly-skilled shooter and puck-handler who accelerates every puck he gets. Boom-or-bust project with second-line upside.
Hard-working winger with sneaky scoring skill down low. Creating off turnovers is his bread and butter, but needs to diversify his offense to unlock his potential as a third-line checker.
Highly skilled offensive threat with elite shooting ability and great hockey sense. Needs to add strength and quickness but should eventually grow into a top-six goal scorer who can provide solid defensive value at the NHL level.
