Ethan Samson
Offensive-minded and lanky blueliner who shows the willingness to jump into the attack. Capable of handling the point on a power play unit. He must work on his 200-foot game to become a full-time NHL defenseman.
Isaiah George
Smooth-skating two-way defenseman with above-average compete, smarts and puck-retrieving abilities. Needs to round out his offensive toolkit to ensure a top-four future.
Lukas Cormier
A well-rounded left-handed defenseman, who is an efficient puck mover.
William Wallinder
A puck-rushing defenseman with great size and skating ability, he lacks offensive upside but has good puck skills and a decent shot. Needs to improve defensively and with his decision-making; projects as a third-pair defenseman with second-pair upside.
Antti Tuomisto
A big, right-handed defenseman who skates well and has a heavy shot from the point. Likely tops out as an AHL defenseman who might get an occasional call-up due to injury.
Isaac Belliveau
An organizational depth defenseman, likely to stay in the minors. There is no fantasy value.
Cross Hanas
Playmaking winger with good puck-handling ability who is willing to engage in puck battles. Needs to improve his skating mechanics and start converting chances into goals to ever make the NHL
Chase Yoder
A potential bottom-six center with strong defensive instincts.
Isaiah Saville
Saville is the complete package as a goalie if it weren't for his size. He competes hard, is very technically sound, and has won at nearly every level he's played.
Kevin Mandolese
Big goalie with quick reflexes. Lateral mobility sometimes a question but can make up for it with strong positioning and instincts.
