Ryan Ufko
Mobile puck moving defender who can quarterback a powerplay. Needs to get stronger and improve his decision making to reach his potential as an NHL defender.
Jacob Quillan
Effective two-way forward with the potential to be a strong middle-six player in the NHL.
Oskari Salminen
Large framed goaltender that moves well from side to side, positionally sound, with good rebound control. A late bloomer who’s trending upward in his development. Sleeper potential.
Colby Barlow
A physically mature goal-scoring winger with a lethal one-timer and elite shooting ability. Lacks playmaking skills and needs to work on off-puck positioning to avoid becoming a one-dimensional goal scorer. Proper development could turn one of the best pure shooters of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft into a high-floor/high-ceiling top-6 elite goal-scoring power forward with PP1 and PK usage.
Olen Zellweger
Puck rushing defenseman with outstanding skating ability. His well-rounded games gives him potential as a top-four defender in the NHL.
Henri Nikkanen
An athletic playmaking centre with good size who sees the ice well. Competes hard and is reliable defensively. Foot speed and skating need improvement at the pro level—a long-term project with limited fantasy upside.
Thomas Milic
A quick, athletic goaltender who reads play with ease. Plays a calm, clean, technical game with aggressive positioning and good footwork, making up for the lack of size. A long-term project that competes hard and thrives under pressure.
Wyatt Bongiovanni
Hard-working center who works hard at both ends of the ice. He isn’t afraid to shoot the puck but lacks offensive upside. Shouldn’t be considered in fantasy leagues.
Henrik Rybinski
Puck distributing winger with a strong playmaking ability.
