Undrafted Oliwer Sjostrom popping off like Heiskanen in his D+1. Isn't that fun.
@ByronMBader What’s up with Oliwer Sjöström? 5th-highest star probability in the ‘25 class now from an undrafted D…

Wyttenbach is having a grrreat freshman season. Could do, and normally do, a lot worse with a 5th round pick!
@ByronMBader Wyttenbach please

Jesus Christmas. Don't be surprised if this 2nd rounder makes the NHL. But continue to be surprised he fell to the 2nd round. Forever and always.

Been asked about Matvei Gridin quite a bit. Here's the update. Nice, nice jump in the AHL thus far in his D+2.

Mason LeBron Bo West I believe is his full name. Would be fun to be elite at multiple sports simultaneously like this.
Mason West is a dual sport WEAPON 🏈🏒 After throwing 5 TDs, the Blackhawks prospect is off to the Minnesota State Championship before lacing them up in the USHL with the @FargoForce

CGY claims Beecher. But of course.
88% of drafted forwards from 1990 on that had a progression (or lack of progression I should say) from D-1 season to D+3 season that looks just like Beecher did not make the NHL in any notable way. The few that have have all been replacement level producing 4th liners. Even

J.P. Hurlbert and Tomas Chrenko are two 2026 draftees that I've barely heard mentioned... sneaky great production in their pre-draft and draft seasons (thus far)... good be a couple nice sleepers for teams to get outside the top 10!

What is happening with Nikita Artamonov? Was seeing significant growth from his D-1 to his D+1 season and he's fallen off huge this year (1 point in 14 games in the KHL). Very uncommon to see a fall off like this after a really notable season the year previous, in the same

Hi. Nemec playing in the pro Slovakia league at 16 years of age and generating a ton of production was unheard of. Unicorn stuff. One of the best looking D the model had ever seen.
I think it’s high time people start remembering the unbelievable models for Nemec in his draft year

Well that's not good for Kaliyev... yikes.
Ex-#NYR & current Belleville Senator Arthur Kaliyev is accused of scamming his ex out of over $50K to fund what she describes as a rampant gambling addiction that’s gone unaddressed by figures around the NHL. The Post conducted a month-long investigation into the allegations⬇️

That Ben Kindel pick for the Penguins is looking pretty good... right away. 11th overall selections don't often jump into the NHL months after being drafted, stick around past the 9 game tryout and have an immediate impact. Only 7 times in the past 35 years has a F picked
