Nikita Grebyonkin
Playmaking winger with great vision and puck skills to complement a projectable frame. Will have to improve his stride and defensive game but has potential as a long-term project.

A power forward reminiscent of Cal Clutterbuck, Dufour fits the Islanders’ hit-anything mentality. His willingness to help defensively qualifies him for the bottom six, although a knack for scoring could lift him higher.
Energy forward with alluring two-way elements and middle-six offensive upside.
Gruden is a high-energy, high-effort player. He displays excellent vision and passing ability paired with a decent shot. He's a well balanced player who can play a variety of roles.
Misyul shows some good speed and ability to rush the puck which could translate at higher levels.
Most likely a bottom-six center with a moderate offensive ceiling. He is a strong skater and sound positionally. Could play net-front on the power play and kill penalties. Good defensively, which could see him as a passenger on an offensively skilled line. Doesn't shoot much, but should get you a hit every other game.
A big goaltender with strong lateral movement and solid puck-tracking. His positioning is a weakness, and he often finds himself straying from his net, leaving easy opportunities for opposing teams.
Complementary two-way winger with middle-six upside.
Edgy, versatile forward with good hands and a solid release.
Physical forward with a powerful stride and slick stickhandling ability. Could be a solid top-6 contributor in the correct scenario.
