Graeme Clarke
Clarke has much work to do but his shot and ability to skate are what keeps his upside at a moderate level.

Big and strong, but skates well for a big guy. Showing signs of being a future PP weapon, but doesn’t ignore defense. Could be more physical. Potentially a top-four NHL blueliner.
Big-bodied winger with good puck skills and a heavy shot, needs to work on his skating ability but projects as a solid middle six winger with upside as a powerplay specialist.
Versatile and responsible two-way forward.
Fix-Wolansky is a scrappy forward that can score and make plays. Columbus has traded away numerous prospects at the trade deadline this season. As a result, he could find himself fast-tracked to the NHL as a middle-six winger within the next two years.
A smart, smooth skating, offensive defenseman has all the tools to be a future top four pairing. A comparison within the organization is Duncan Keith.
Defense-minded defenseman; wont put up points but can prevent them
High-skill forward who has great hands and a lethal shot. Small but stalky forward that protects the puck well.
Smart, fast forward who can be dangerous from anywhere
Lindbom has shown early signs of becoming a draft day steal, being taken at the very end of his 2021 draft year. On the smaller side for goalies but with the heart of a lion, questions will linger about his size until he shows what he can do on North American ice.
