NHL free agency 2020: Complete list of all 31 teams' UFA, RFA players

When the 2019-20 NHL season was paused, the status of free agency was in flux. We later learned the signing period would begin at noon ET on Oct. 9. That's when unrestricted free agents began signing with new teams, restricted free agents with arbitration rights began having their next contracts dictated by a third party and general managers started playing the fun game of "Should we or should we not do an offer sheet?" (Thanks, Marc Bergevin!). This season's list of UFAs isintriguing, with the likes of Alex Pietrangelo, Taylor Hall, Torey Krug and Braden Holtby among the top players on the market. Have weseen the last of Zdeno Chara and Joe Thornton? Who is this year's Sebastian Aho?Below is a list of each team's major free agents.NHL 2020 free agency(UFA = unrestricted free agent; RFA = restricted free agent; NQO/UFA = no qualifying offer,

BlakeDatAzzUp's 2020 NHL Mock Draft

PREFACE: pls dont hurt my feelings
1st Round
1. New York Rangers - Alexis Lafreniere - LW - QMJHL Rimouski
No shock here as the most complete, high floor high ceiling player in years finds his way to the most undeserving team. Thanks Bettman.

2. Los Angeles Kings - Quinton Byfield - C - OHL Sudbury
I don't think there's any reality where LA doesn't take QB. Any uncertainty stems from hoping Ottawa breaks and coughs up some picks to make sure they get their guy. Marco Sturm and Anze Kopitar will make for two great mentors for QB.

3. Ottawa Senators - Tim Stutzle - C/W - DEL Mannheim
If it's not Stutzle, it's Raymond. Well, unless they want to gatekeep D from going to Detroit. But, assuming Dorion wasn't talking out his butt, 1-3 go as planned. Stutzle who really seems mature beyond his years, could make the jump as soon as this year- depending on how Ottawa wants to manage his development.

4. Detroit Red Wings - Jake Sanderson - LD - USHL USDP
I'll eat crow if it isn't.

5. Ottawa Senators - Jamie Drysdale - RD - OHL Eerie
They've seen teams sleep on the skilled unersized d-man. They won't let it happen, especially with how even kneel and professional Jamie's demeanor is.

6. Anaheim Ducks - Cole Perfetti - LW/C - OHL Saginaw
Perfetti and Zegras is just a terrifying 1-2 punch.

7. New Jersey Devils - Lucas Raymond - LW/RW - SHL Frolunda
The Devils bucked expectations by going Nico over Patrick, awarded Hughes and now gifted Raymond. The draft gods love New Jersey.

8. Buffalo Sabres - Marco Rossi - C - OHL Ottawa
Kevyn Adams is in such a sticky situation with Eichel's future up in the air and Mittelsted not progressing as planned. Rossi is the real deal, whether it mitigates the pending loss of Eichel, or ends up being his compliment a line down. It's a smart move by Buffalo with so much uncertainty surrounding their roster.

9. Minnesota Wild - Yaroslav Askarov - G - KHL SKA
Judd Brackett comes from Vancouver, who's draft record as of late has been fantastic. But they've also been in a position to take the obvious BPA. Add this to another win on Brackett's long list of succesful first round picks. Hunter Jones last year shouldn't deter them from solidifying a known weakness on their team.

10. Winnipeg Jets - Seth Jarvis - RW - WHL Portland
Does Laine being shopped put an end to Finnipeg? It might put a pause on it, not because Lundell isn't good enough, but because Jarvis is that electryfying. Raw skill, high IQ. Could Dal Colle' on us, but his mind for the game seems better prepared for the NHL.

11. Nashville Predators - Jack Quinn - LW/RW - OHL Ottawa
Conventional safe wisdom would have Nashville taking Anton Lundell as well. But Jack's skill level is unquestionable. He'll come into the league with a chip on his shoulder that he wasn't in consideration much higher in the draft.

12. Florida Panthers - Alexander Holtz - RW - SHL Djurgardens
The North American bias is real. Holtz ends up falling a tad further than anticipated, but I can't think of a better situation for him to fall into. HooberDoo - Barkov - Holtz could be absolute ~filth~.

13. Carolina Hurricanes - Rodion Amirov - LW - KHL Tulpar
You can't ignore the already marked progression in Rodion's game. The russian factor has never affected Carolina, hello Federov. The high end potential is too much to ignore.

14. Edmonton Oilers - Anton Lundell - C - LIIGA HIFK
KH/Wright always jump at the opportunity for a faller. Here yeee'arhh

15. Toronto Mapleleafs - Kaiden Guhle - LD - WHL Prince Albert
Defense is always a priority and with the beating Toronto took by it's media/fan base for a lack of intensity. Guhle projects as a sign that that Dubas is listening.

16. Montreal Canadiens - Brendan Brisson - C/W - USHL Chicago
Wisconsin bound, and more importantly, no injury concerns. Headed to UofM with another top US draft eligble, should be ready to make an impact in 2-3 years.

17. Chicago Hockey Club - Dylan Holloway - C - BigTen Wisconsin
Yannick Perrault im sure attempted to bring his son Jacob into the pipeline, but the Wisconsin/Chicago fan base would shoot them for not taking the Toews predecessor.

18. New Jersey Devils - William Wallinder - D - SWE MODO
Pure size and skating. A unique prospect that needs time to mature and fill out.

19. Calgary Flames - Connor Zary - C/LW - WHL Kamloops
For a historically physical team, speed isn't a deterence when looking at a kid. The compete level mixed with the skill level screams future Flame. Ala Monahan.

20. New Jersey Devils - Helge Grans - D - SHL Malmo
Double dipped in Sweden on D. They need the help and the value is here.

21. Columbus Blue Jackets - Thomas Bordeleau - RW - USHL USDP
Cole Caufield 2.0 but instead of Wisconsin, he's going to Ann Arbor with Brisson.

22. New York Rangers - Dawson Mercer - RW - QMJHL Drummondsville
Lafreniere brings a certain level of intensity, as does Mercer in a very similar way. Kris Versteeg is a name that comes to mind when looking at Mercer.

23. Philadelphia Flyers - Jacob Perrault - C/W - OHL Sarnia
Flyers get themselves a shooter, good size and NHL bloodlines. The comparisons between Holloway/Perrault internally for Chicago will go on for years to come. Flyers make out like bandits this deep into the first.

24. Colorado Avalanche - Hendrix LaPierre - C - QMJHL Chicoutimi
The rich keep getting richer. With the injury concerns and shortned season, you're really going out on a limb going into the draft. No team can afford to take that risk more than Colorado. If all pans out will be a great replacement for Nadri at the very least.

25. Washington Capitals - Jan Mysak - C - OHL Hamilton
The Capitals have always beat to their own drum in the draft and they see ultra skilled Czech slowly slipping their way. BPA meets Value.

26. St Louis Blues - Braden Schneider - RD - WHL Brandon
He fit's the aura of the Blues. It's the same team that drafted Jackman, Parayko, Edmundson and even took a gamble on DETs Nedomlel. They like their big d-men.

27. Anaheim Ducks - Tyson Foerster - C/RW OHL Barrie
Perfetti and Zegras, throw in Foerster to snipe in all the loose offense that they create. That trio has all the potential in the world to exceed whatever Getzlaf/Perry/Ryan had in their prime.

28. Ottawa Senators - Ryan O'Rourke - LD - OHL Soo
A natural leader with a nasty streak. Fits the current make-up, could potentially be the saftey gap that lets Drysdale rip a little move freely.

29. Vegas Golden Knights - Mavrik Bourque - RW - QMJHL Shawinigan
Vegas just slurps up the sloppy seconds and keep getting richer because of it. Bourque is a little bit slept on in this draft class. Where Krebs fell in their laps last yaer, Bourque does the same this year.

30. Dallas Stars - Marat Khusnutdinov - C - KHL SKA
Nill comes from a long line of long planning and putting players in places, not exactly swinging for the fences ever. Marat having all the tools to be a projectible NHL center is a TYPICAL Nill pick.

31. San Jose Sharks - Emil Andrea - RD - SWE HV71
Ryan Merkley cemented the fact that they are not scared of size on the back end or characther issues. Where most assume smaller swedes are soft, Emil makes up for his height with extreme competitiveness. Has that Zidlicky-esque physicality to his game.

2nd Round

  1. Detroit Red Wings - Lukas Reichel - LW - DEL Berlin

  1. Ottawa Senators - Ridley Greig - C - WHL Brandon

An NHL Fan Guide to Picking Your KHL Team

With the NHL season still 18 days away, the KHL is already underway in its third week of play. Whether you’re looking for a quick fix until October 3rd, or you’ve always wanted a dog in the race in the KHL, here is an extensive guide to picking the right team for you.
Route #1: Pretty Colors
For those out there who don’t want to go through the hassle of changing their wardrobe, the simplest path in choosing a tea m is to go with your NHL team’s familial colors. As an avowed Rangers-hating Islanders fan, the toughest part about relocating to St. Petersburg and adopting SKA has been their taste in laundry.
Route #2: So Original
If you long for the days of a league with only six teams and goalies masks amounted to the cartilage in your nose, then perhaps you want to take a look at some Soviet originals. The KHL as we know it has only been around since its 2008-2009 inaugural season. However, most of the clubs have existed in some form or another since before the KHL was founded.
SLOVAN BRATISLAVA – 1921
SKA ST. PETERSBURG – 1946 CSKA MOSCOW – 1946
DYNAMO MOSCOW – 1946 SPARTAK MOSCOW – 1946
Not So Original: For the expansion lovers out there – take a look at the league’s newest entrant – RED STAR KUNLUN.

Route #3: Not Into the Whole ‘Russia’ Thing
Don’t have a particular affinity for Russia? There are plenty of options outside of the Federation:
HELSINKI JOKERIT (Finland) DYNAMO RIGA (Latvia) DINAMO MINSK (Belarus) SLOVAN BRATISLAVA (Slovakia) BARYS ASTANA (Kazakhstan) RED STAR KUNLUN (China)

Route #4: Rooting For (or Against) Familiar Names
Ex-NHL:
Pavel Datsyuk - SKA St. Petersburg Nail Yakupov – SKA St. Petersburg Maxime Talbot – Avangard Omsk Maxim Afinogenov – Dynamo Moscow Alexander Semin – Vityaz Moscow Andrei Markov – Ak Bars Kazan Wojtek Wolski – Metallurg Magnitogorsk Nikolai Kulemin – Metallurg Magnitogorsk Andrej Meszaros – Slovan Bratislava Karri Ramo – Avangard Omsk Jhonas Enroth – Dinamo Minsk Yohann Auvitu – HC Sochi Dmitri Kalinin – Spartak Moscow Peter Regin – Jokerit Helsinki
Route #5: Rooting For (or Against) Future Names \*Notable prospects in italics

MINNESOTA WILD *Kirill Kaprizov (LW/RW) – CSKA Moscow Andrei Svetlakov (C) – CSKA Moscow
MONTREAL CANADIENS Alexander Romanov (D) – CSKA Moscow
NASHVILLE PREDATORS None
NEW JERSEY DEVILS Vojtech Mozik (D) – Vityaz Podolsk Yegor Zaitsev (D) – Dynamo Moscow Mikhail Maltsev (LW/C) – SKA St. Petersburg
NEW YORK ISLANDERS Anatoli Golyshev (LW/RW) – Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg Johan Sundström (C) – Kunlun Red Star Kristers Gudlevskis (G) – Dinamo Riga *Ilya Sorokin (G) – CSKA Moscow The Islander’s 2014 Draft pick Ilya Sorokin has been playing hard to get with the Islanders management, especially after signing a 3 year contract with CSKA Moscow in 2017. Apparently he is most optimistic about playing for the new management but any seasoned Isles fan is likely counting down to heartbreak.
NEW YORK RANGERS Nicklas Jensen (RW/LW) – Helsinki Jokerit Patrik Virta (C/RW) – HC Slovan Bratislava *Yegor Rykov (D) – SKA St. Petersburg Vitali Kravtsov (RW) – Traktor Chelyabinsk *Igor Shestyorkin (G) – SKA St. Petersburg

WASHINGTON CAPITALS None
WINNIPEG JETS Pavel Kraskovsky (C) – Lokomotiv Yaroslavl Ivan Telegin (W/C) – CSKA Moscow
Route #6: Other
METALLURG MAGNITOGORSK
I mean, if you were ever into Pokémon at any point in your life, how could you not be into that name?
LOKOMOTIV YAROSLAVL
Lokomotiv is arguably the best-known team internationally for a unfortunate reason. On September 7th, 2011, nearly the entire team was killed in a plane crash during takeoff to a game in Minsk. The club canceled their 2011-2012 season, and the KHL does not play games on September 7th in order to mourn the tragedy.
TRAKTOR CHELYABINSK
If you come from a "lovable loser" type city in North America (not naming any names...), then you may have a kindred spirit with Chelyabinsk. The butt of infinite memes, as well as home to one of the most viral videos in history of a meteor striking the town in 2013, the hockey club has been a point of pride. Especially making the Gagarin Cup finals, but ultimately losing in the 2012-2013 season.

Hope you enjoyed the post! I would have liked to add more graphics and links, but if you are interested what the uniforms look like, or any of the prospects, I would recommend doing some further research. This article can also be found on https://beta.getkelvin.com/site/en.khl.ru

As promised earlier, Pronmans top 100

Sorry for the delay, at work. The numbering format is funky with copy paste, however this is the order. I dont have time for format as i am in meetings all day.
  1. Clayton Keller, C, Arizona Coyotes DOB: 7/29/98 | Ht: 5' 10" | Wt: 168 2016-17 stats, Boston University (Hockey East): 31 GP | 21 G | 24 A Projected 2017-18 team: Arizona (NHL)
Keller is one of the game's best prospects and coming off a fantastic 2016-17 season. He was among the most dominant freshmen of the past 20 years, a top player for the gold medal-winning Team USA at the World Juniors and wrapped it up with some NHL games for Arizona. He is a dynamic playmaker who excites you anytime he's on the ice. Keller gets plus grades with his speed and puck skills, but his hockey IQ pushes him into the top tier of players. He's an extremely crafty playmaker who can also play on the defensive side of the puck well despite his smaller size, due to his awareness and speed. He should be a quality NHL player in 2017-18, and an early favorite for the Calder Trophy.
  1. Nico Hischier, C, New Jersey Devils DOB: 1/04/99 | Ht: 6' 0.75" | Wt: 176 2016-17 stats, Halifax (QMJHL): 57 GP | 38 G | 48 A Projected 2017-18 team: New Jersey (NHL)
Hischier was fantastic from the word "go" this past season, between league and international play. He's the complete package offensively. He's a very good skater, with the ability to be dangerous due to his first step and top gear, but particularly due to how elusive he is from a standstill. Hischier is a creative puck handler who can dictate possession with his skill and often stands out with how he can generate offense with his creativity. However, his best trait is his hockey sense. He anticipates pressure, moves the puck into the right places and outsmarts defenders. "[Hischier] can take over a game and does so consistently," one scout said. He isn't a bulky guy, but he gets to the net with frequency and is a solid defensive center.
  1. Mathew Barzal, C, New York Islanders DOB: 5/26/97 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 187 2016-17 stats, Seattle (WHL): 41 GP | 10 G | 69 A Projected 2017-18 team: New York (NHL)
Barzal was one of the top players in the CHL last season, with his playmaking standing out on a nightly basis, and he led Seattle to a Memorial Cup appearance. Barzal has elite agility and vision, is tough to check and makes tough offensive plays seem routine. He is not a dynamic two-way center who will take the tough minutes, but he is the first man over the boards if you want control of the puck. I expect him to be a top-six forward in the NHL, and he has the potential to be among the best forwards in the league.
  1. Charlie McAvoy, D, Boston Bruins DOB: 12/21/97 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 212 2016-17 stats, Boston University (Hockey East): 38 GP | 5 G | 21 A Projected 2017-18 team: Boston (NHL)
McAvoy had a season full of success. He was one of the top players for Team USA at the World Juniors and for Boston University in college hockey, then stepped into the Bruins lineup at the tail end of the season and made an immediate impact. He has high-end mobility, has great offensive IQ and is a tough competitor. If you had to nitpick a weakness, it's that his defensive reads aren't yet refined and he can be victim to some errors. However, he's shown noticeable progress in that latter area, and given how well he possesses the puck, he nullifies those issues to an extent.
  1. Nolan Patrick, C, Philadelphia Flyers DOB: 9/19/98 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 198 2016-17 stats, Brandon (WHL): 33 GP | 20 G | 26 A Projected 2017-18 team: Philadelphia (NHL)
Patrick didn't have the best draft season, mostly because he missed a substantial portion due to injury. However, he remains a top prospect. Patrick's best trait is his hockey sense. He's a highly creative playmaker with high-end vision and puck skills. Patrick also shows an above-average shot and can generate it from tight spaces. His skating isn't as dynamic as his playmaking, but he'll be able to keep up in the NHL. He's a player without a glaring flaw and is what you want in a top-level center: a two-way forward with skill, size and intelligence who can contribute in all areas of the game.
  1. Dylan Strome, C, Arizona Coyotes DOB: 3/07/97 | Ht: 6' 3" | Wt: 198 2016-17 stats, Erie (OHL): 35 GP | 22 G | 53 A Projected 2017-18 team: Arizona (NHL)
Strome got caught in CHL-NHL limbo; he wasn't quite ready to play for the Coyotes, but when he was sent back, he cleared two points per game in the OHL. On a skills level, I haven't seen a ton of progression from last season, but he was elite last season and remains so, even if he doesn't seem as shiny. Strome is a tall center with incredible vision, a big shot and good puck skills. Improving his skating and strength remain key issues for him in terms of becoming a top-six forward at the NHL level, but with a big summer, it's possible.
  1. Alexander Nylander, RW, Buffalo Sabres DOB: 3/02/98 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 181 2016-17 stats, Rochester (AHL): 65 GP | 10 G | 18 A Projected 2017-18 team: Rochester (AHL)
Nylander had an up-and-down season. He was great at the World Juniors versus his peers yet again. In the pro levels, he struggled to earn the trust of his coaching staff and was sheltered from tough situations, although he was still a top power-play option. His skill is fantastic, as he makes high-level plays seem routine and is quite creative. I wish he was a little quicker, and his off-the-puck game needs a lot of work, but his offensive upside is NHL top-six level.
  1. Tyson Jost, C/LW, Colorado Avalanche DOB: 3/14/98 | Ht: 5' 11" | Wt: 194 2016-17 stats, North Dakota (NCHC): 33 GP | 16 G | 19 A Projected 2017-18 team: Colorado (NHL)
As a freshman this past season, Tyson Jost was one of the top players in a tough NCHC conference, skating for North Dakota, and had a quite memorable cup of tea with Colorado toward the end of the NHL season. Jost is a well-rounded center. He can play the game with speed and skill, making an occasional highlight-reel play while also being a reliable defensive player. The Jonathan Toews comparison is a little lazy given the paths through North Dakota for both; moreover, I see Jost being a little more offensively tilted. A little bulk will go a long way to his being a full-time NHL player next season.
  1. Gabriel Vilardi, C, Los Angeles Kings DOB: 8/16/99 | Ht: 6' 2.75" | Wt: 201 2016-17 stats, Windsor (OHL): 49 GP | 29 G | 32 A Projected 2017-18 team: Windsor (OHL)
Big men who can make plays with the puck are hard to find, and Gabriel Vilardi fits the bill. His skill is legitimately at the top level, as his ability to maintain possession, create offense off the rush and evade pressure as good as some of the better 5-foot-11 forwards. He also possesses good vision and can make tough distributions seem easy. He's a player who makes his teammates better. Vilardi's skating is an issue, with a below-average top gear.
  1. Casey Mittelstadt, C, Buffalo Sabres DOB: 11/22/98 | Ht: 6' 0.75" | Wt: 201 2016-17 stats, Eden Praire (HS MN): 25 GP | 21 G | 43 A Projected 2017-18 team: Minnesota (Big Ten)
Mittelstadt has been a highly touted player for the past few years, and was a top player in the USHL this past season along with a stint with his high school team. Mittelstadt is a dynamic playmaker who can generate scoring chances in bunches. He can dangle in open ice with the best of them, and can make a highlight happen at any moment. Mittelstadt sees the ice well, often executing on high-difficulty feeds and being a primary starting point of offense. His skating isn't as dynamic as his hands, but he skates well and has a separation gear in his feet. He isn't as great off the puck; despite a strong frame, he loses more battles than he should. He is committed to the University of Minnesota.
  1. Thomas Chabot, D, Ottawa Senators DOB: 1/30/97 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 190 2016-17 stats, Saint John (QMJHL): 34 GP | 10 G | 35 A Projected 2017-18 team: Ottawa (NHL)
Chabot was QMJHL Defenseman of the Year, QMJHL playoffs MVP and world juniors MVP -- not too shabby! His skating ability is ridiculous for a tall defenseman. His vision is great, and he can play an up-tempo game. He's competent defensively, but whenever he's on the ice, his team seems to have the puck. Chabot looks ready to step into the NHL next season in a significant role, and has star potential.
  1. Kirill Kaprizov, LW, Minnesota Wild DOB: 4/26/97 | Ht: 5' 10" | Wt: 192 2016-17 stats, Salavat Yulaev Ufa (KHL): 49 GP | 20 G | 22 A Projected 2017-18 team: CSKA (KHL)
Kaprizov has been lighting the world on fire in the KHL, showing scoring numbers that line up with the best teenagers to ever play in the top Russian league. The KHL's quality has dipped as it expanded, so that's worth noting, but regardless Kaprizov has been impressive and was the top forward at the World Juniors as well. He skates well, is a great playmaker who plays at a quick pace, and can finish chances. He wins puck battles despite his size, and finds a way to be around the puck a lot. Kaprizov re-signed with his KHL team, so it will be three more seasons overseas unless his contract is bought out.
  1. Cody Glass, C, Vegas Golden Knights DOB: 4/01/99 | Ht: 6' 1.75" | Wt: 178 2016-17 stats, Portland (WHL): 69 GP | 32 G | 62 A Projected 2017-18 team: Portland (WHL)
The first of Vegas' three first-round picks was a riser all season. He is a dynamic playmaker, who has the skill, size and hockey IQ to be a significant scorer in the NHL. He has coordinated with the puck for a player his size, and he makes tough dekes seem easy. He's a smart playmaker who can make plays at a quick tempo and control the center third of the ice. Some scouts I talk to praise his skating; I haven't seen a blow-you-away gear from him, but he's certainly above average in that area. Defensively, he is decent. His frame needs to be bulked up a ton, as he can be pushed off pucks too easily, but he works hard for pucks.
  1. Nick Suzuki, C, Vegas Golden Knights DOB: 8/10/99 | Ht: 5' 10.75" | Wt: 183 2016-17 stats, Owen Sound (OHL): 65 GP | 45 G | 51 A Projected 2017-18 team: Owen Sound (OHL)
Suzuki was consistently impressive and one of the top overall players in the OHL this season. The first thing any scout will say about him is to praise his hockey sense. He sees the ice well as a playmaker, but his ability to make quick, creative and correct decisions consistently helps him make a dangerous two-way force. Suzuki can make a difficult open-ice dangle or a quick chip to get the puck up and to the right spot. Defensively, he's solid on his positional play, winning battles without taking penalties, and he is a shorthanded scoring threat to boot. His skating technique isn't sublime, but I wouldn't categorize him as slow -- maybe just a little awkward in how his feet get him where he's going.
  1. Sam Steel, C, Anaheim Ducks DOB: 2/03/98 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 179 2016-17 stats, Regina (WHL): 66 GP | 50 G | 81 A Projected 2017-18 team: Regina (WHL)
Steel was the top scorer in the WHL this past season, having the most productive campaign by an 18-year-old in that league in decades. He is a dynamic playmaker with the top-end puck skills and vision to be a potential difference-maker in the NHL. His skating isn't as dynamic as those other attributes, but I think he skates well, and given his IQ, he's able to make plays at a very quick pace. Steel is a scorer but showed progression off the puck, as well, being a solid defensive center at the junior level, which allowed him to have the puck more often. Once he gains bulk, he'll be ready for the NHL, potentially as soon as this season.
  1. Pierre-Luc Dubois, C/LW, Columbus Blue Jackets DOB: 6/24/98 | Ht: 6' 3" | Wt: 209 2016-17 stats, Cape Breton/Blainville-Boisbriand (QMJHL): 48 GP | 21 G | 34 A Projected 2017-18 team: Columbus (NHL)
If someone says he or she has a perfect feel on what Pierre-Luc Dubois is at this point, that person is a liar. After blowing through the QMJHL in 2015-16, being drafted third overall and nearly making Columbus out of camp, Dubois had a rocky season. His production rates plummeted, and he was just fine at the World Juniors. With all that in mind, I have reason for optimism. He's a skilled, smart, big man, he wins a lot of puck battles, he has a good shot, and he has significantly improved his skating. There is reasonable concern about whether he has the pure offensive instincts to be a top-end scorer in the NHL or is a middle-range scorer who can log tough minutes. You see flashes of a great deke or pass from him, but he isn't consistent in those displays.
  1. Owen Tippett, RW, Florida Panthers DOB: 2/16/99 | Ht: 6' 0.5" | Wt: 200 2016-17 stats, Mississauga (OHL): 60 GP | 44 G | 31 A Projected 2017-18 team: Mississauga (OHL)
First-rounder Tippett is an exciting winger to watch. He was a dominant goal scorer this season, due to both the quality and quantity of shots on goal. His ability to go from 0 to 60 -- metaphorically speaking, though he's darn quick -- is impressive, and he can gain the offensive blue line with ease. He has a high skill level and can make some open-ice plays, but he's much more comfortable going north-south than east-west. He can kill penalties due to his speed and IQ, and can be a shorthanded scoring threat while doing so. Tippett's game is more about playing in straight lines, but don't let his tilted goal-to-assist ratio fool you, as he can make plays to his teammates too.
  1. Brock Boeser, RW, Vancouver Canucks DOB: 2/25/97 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 192 2016-17 stats, North Dakota (NCHC): 32 GP | 16 G | 18 A Projected 2017-18 team: Vancouver (NHL)
Boeser didn't have as promising a season as a sophomore as he did as a freshman at North Dakota, but a wrist issue that plagued him most of the season was likely a factor. When he got time with the Canucks, he looked extremely impressive for a junior-aged player. Boeser has a high skill level, a good shot, competes for pucks and is smart enough to make skilled plays at an NHL pace. His skating will never be a selling point but will not hold him back, given all his other assets. He generates offense and shot attempts in bunches and could be a significant NHL scorer.
  1. Eeli Tolvanen, RW, Nashville Predators DOB: 4/22/99 | Ht: 5' 10.25" | Wt: 170 2016-17 stats, Sioux City (USHL): 52 GP | 30 G | 24 A Projected 2017-18 team: Jokerit (KHL)
The Predators' first-round pick this summer has produced everywhere he has gone. He was one of the best players in the USHL this past season and has looked very good in international play for Finland the past few seasons. Tolvanen is known mostly for his big-time shot. However, he is more than a shooter. He has great hands, can make difficult feeds and can play at a quick pace, though he is most comfortable when winding up his cannon. He's small and not incredibly quick for a player his size (though I think his skating is adequate), but he's smart enough to put himself in position to score and has a little physical edge to his game. He will head to Finland for a season before entering the Predators system in earnest.
The Predators landed Eeli Tolvanen at No. 30 overall in the 2017 draft. Danny Murphy/Icon Sportswire
  1. Miro Heiskanen, D, Dallas Stars DOB: 7/18/99 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 170 2016-17 stats, HIFK (Liiga): 37 GP | 5 G | 5 A Projected 2017-18 team: HIFK (Liiga)
Heiskanen established himself as a regular in the middle of a top Finnish league team's lineup as one of the younger players in this draft class, before coming off the board at No. 3 to the Stars. He shows great ability at both ends of the rink. His hockey sense is advanced to the point that he dictates the play with how effectively he moves the puck. He makes great decisions, understands how to create chances while keeping his plays simple and overall shows no issues playing at a pro pace. His mobility is very good as well. He's a little shorter than average for an NHL defender and needs bulk, but I see his hockey IQ translating well down the line.
  1. Jake Bean, D, Carolina Hurricanes DOB: 6/09/98 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 172 2016-17 stats, Calgary (WHL): 43 GP | 8 G | 37 A Projected 2017-18 team: Calgary (WHL)
Bean missed a substantial part of the 2016-17 season due to a training camp injury. When he was healthy, he was his typical great self. I have some doubts about how dynamic he is in terms of his skating and puck skills, but his two-way IQ and high-end vision make him a top-end prospect. He is calm with the puck and is as refined in his positional play as you will find for a player his age. All he does wherever he goes is produce and be an all-situations horse. He should be one of the top defensemen in the CHL next season as well as Canada's No. 1 defenseman at the world juniors.
  1. Cale Makar, D, Colorado Avalanche DOB: 10/30/98 | Ht: 5' 11.25" | Wt: 180 2016-17 stats, Brooks (AJHL): 54 GP | 24 G | 51 A Projected 2017-18 team: UMass (Hockey East)
Makar was lights-out this season in the AJHL, including a dominant performance at the World Junior A Challenge. Makar skates very well, with a good burst out of each stride. He's aggressive jumping into the play and can pressure opponents with his speed. He's also a highly skilled puck handler, with high-end offensive instincts. He can make tough offensive plays with consistency and quarterback a power play with the best of them. His defense was passable at the Junior A level. His size is the main issue, as he has a short wingspan and can struggle to win battles or close gaps.
  1. Daniel Sprong, RW, Pittsburgh Penguins DOB: 3/17/97 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 181 2016-17 stats, Charlottetown (QMJHL): 31 GP | 32 G | 27 A Projected 2017-18 team: Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AHL)
Sprong is basically the entirety of the Penguins' farm system right now and had a strong season in the QMJHL as a 19-year-old, prepping him to compete for a job this fall. He is a game-breaker with high-end speed, puck skills and finishing ability. He can be a little selfish at times, but he's a dynamic shot generator and playmaker. He's not an option to kill penalties or use on a big defensive zone draw, but he'll score a lot of goals and push the play forward.
  1. Klim Kostin, C/LW, St. Louis Blues DOB: 5/05/99 | Ht: 6' 3" | Wt: 196 2016-17 stats, Dynamo Moscow (KHL): 8 GP | 0 G | 0 A Projected 2017-18 team: Chicago (AHL)
Kostin's ice time was limited playing versus men this past season in Russia, but he has impressed in international play the past few years. His skill level is incredible, as he makes tough offensive plays seem easy. He can stick handle in open space, but also excels as a playmaker, making the smart play. He can get caught trying to do too much, but usually reads the ice well and makes the right decision. Kostin's skating isn't high-end, but he skates well for a player his size, and should be average as a pro.
  1. Mikhail Sergachev, D, Tampa Bay Lightning DOB: 6/25/98 | Ht: 6' 3" | Wt: 216 2016-17 stats, Windsor (OHL): 50 GP | 10 G | 33 A Projected 2017-18 team: Tampa Bay (NHL)
Sergachev had an interesting season, playing briefly with the Canadiens in the NHL, being sent back to the OHL, winning a Memorial Cup and then being traded to Tampa Bay for Jonathan Drouin. He was good but not dominant in the OHL. His skating is ridiculous for a big defenseman, as he's able to get up into the rush. He has decent skill, moving the puck more efficiently this season and has a big shot. He doesn't shy away from physical play, and though his defense has shown progress, his D-zone reads and risky plays are remaining issues in his game.
  1. Jordan Kyrou, C/RW, St. Louis Blues DOB: 5/08/98 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 185 2016-17 stats, Sarnia (OHL): 66 GP | 30 G | 64 A Projected 2017-18 team: Sarnia (OHL)
Jordan Kyrou is an elite skater with great hands, who makes dynamic plays on a routine basis. He is among the best in his age group from a skills standpoint. He has never been a well-rounded player though, is indifferent defensively, and can hurt his team with his decision-making. He is a tough prospect to get a proper read on due to the variance in his play, but few players can dominate a shift like Kyrou.
  1. Erik Brannstrom, D, Vegas Golden Knights DOB: 9/02/99 | Ht: 5' 10" | Wt: 173 2016-17 stats, HV 71 (SHL): 35 GP | 1 G | 5 A Projected 2017-18 team: HV71 (SHL)
Brannstrom is a favorite of mine. I've been impressed the past two to three seasons, and I think he has a good pro ceiling. He's a small defenseman at 5-foot-10, but he does a lot well. Brannstrom is a great skater, is gifted on his edges and has a good top gear. He can make plays in open ice because his feet and great vision allow him to make a lot happen despite less-than-fantastic puck skills. His defense could use a little tweaking, as I've seen him make errors he shouldn't, but he has still displayed the ability to play tough minutes.
  1. Philippe Myers, D, Philadelphia Flyers DOB: 1/25/97 | Ht: 6' 5" | Wt: 209 2016-17 stats, Rouyn-Noranda (QMJHL): 34 GP | 10 G | 25 A Projected 2017-18 team: Lehigh Valley (AHL)
Myers has been everything the Flyers could have hoped when they brought him into camp for a tryout two seasons ago. Defensemen who stand 6-foot-5 and can skate at a pro level are hard to find, and combining that with above-average hockey IQ and capable puck handling ability makes for one heck of a player. Defensively, Myers plays a refined game and displays solid positional play in his own zone. He has all the indicators of being a top-four defenseman in the NHL.
  1. Kristian Vesalainen, LW/RW, Winnipeg Jets DOB: 6/01/99 | Ht: 6' 3.25" | Wt: 207 2016-17 stats, Frolunda (SHL): 26 GP | 1 G | 5 A Projected 2017-18 team: HPK (Liiga)
Vesalainen split time between the SHL and Liiga as he struggled to establish himself at either level as a 17-year-old but ended his season on a strong note, being named the MVP of the IIHF under-18 championship. His poor regular season aside, he has a lot of promise. Players who can jet as well as he does at that size are hard to find. His speed and wingspan make him incredibly dangerous, and he has great puck skills. While not a premier playmaker, he is able to generate quite a bit of offense from his creativity, speed and ability to drive the high-percentage areas. On the negative side, he isn't great defensively, and though he can play a power game, he needs to work on being more consistent in puck battles.
  1. Luke Kunin, C, Minnesota Wild DOB: 12/04/97 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 192 2016-17 stats, Wisconsin (Big Ten): 35 GP | 22 G | 16 A Projected 2017-18 team: Minnesota (NHL)
Kunin was good between Wisconsin and as Team USA's captain at the World Juniors, and blew me away as a 19-year-old in the AHL. He's always a coach's favorite who plays a ton of minutes, and is a smart two-way center. He grinds for pucks, skates and handles the puck well, and has a big shot. I don't watch him and see him making highlight-reel plays, but he makes a lot of smart plays. He'll be a reliable NHL player for a long time.
  1. Kailer Yamamoto, RW, Edmonton Oilers DOB: 9/29/98 | Ht: 5' 7.5" | Wt: 153 2016-17 stats, Spokane (WHL): 65 GP | 42 G | 57 A Projected 2017-18 team: Spokane (WHL)
Yamamoto is a plus skater, puck handler and passer. He has great agility on his edges combined with a good top gear. He can create when he is carrying the puck due to his skill, creativity and ability to see the ice. He can come down the wing with speed one shift and quarterback a power play the next. At the WHL level as an 18-year-old, he showed that he could be decent defensively, but the main concern going forward is how he will do away from the puck, given his small size.
  1. Joel Eriksson Ek, C, Minnesota Wild DOB: 1/29/97 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 196 2016-17 stats, Farjestad (SHL): 26 GP | 8 G | 8 A Projected 2017-18 team: Minnesota (NHL)
Eriksson Ek made the Wild to start the 2016-17 season, but a falloff in play landed him in Sweden for one more season -- where he was fantastic in the SHL. Eriksson is a smart two-way center who competes for pucks, and while his skill/speed combo isn't fantastic, he always seems to be making a play thanks to good vision. He projects to be an effective center in the NHL who can be relied on in any situation. He'll be a full-time NHL player this season.
  1. Colin White, C/RW, Ottawa Senators DOB: 1/30/97 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 190 2016-17 stats, Boston College (Hockey East): 35 GP | 16 G | 17 A Projected 2017-18 team: Ottawa (NHL)
White stagnated a little this past season. But even given that stagnation, he remains a legitimate prospect and projects as a two-way center in the NHL. White doesn't wow you on any given shift, but he makes good plays all over the ice. His hockey sense is top-end on both sides of the puck, he has a decent skill set, and is very competitive in puck battles, always seeming to come out on the winning end.
  1. Kyle Connor, LW, Winnipeg Jets DOB: 12/09/96 | Ht: 6' 1" | Wt: 183 2016-17 stats, Manitoba (AHL): 52 GP | 25 G | 19 A Projected 2017-18 team: Winnipeg (NHL)
Connor's first half was a little rough, failing to get it going in the NHL (and getting hurt), but he torched the AHL in the second half. He's a great skater who can jet through the neutral zone and is able to gain the offensive zone with control of the puck. He can make the difficult passes, but his game is more about going in straight lines and exposing defenders. His off-puck game hasn't developed the past few seasons, and that will be the major hurdle to becoming a quality NHL player.
  1. Samuel Girard, D, Nashville Predators DOB: 5/12/98 | Ht: 5' 10" | Wt: 161 2016-17 stats, Shawinigan (QMJHL): 59 GP | 9 G | 66 A Projected 2017-18 team: Shawinigan (QMJHL)
There are few players in the CHL with the offensive tools and production of Samuel Girard, who led QMJHL defensemen in scoring for the second straight season. He's one of the most dynamic and entertaining prospects in hockey. He's a quick and agile skater with great hands, and he moves the puck at a high-end level. His defense isn't as good as his offense, in part due to a small, slight frame. Although he can close gaps on his checks, he struggles to win battles.
  1. Ryan Poehling, C, Montreal Canadiens DOB: 1/03/99 | Ht: 6' 1.75" | Wt: 183 2016-17 stats, St. Cloud State (NCHC): 35 GP | 7 G | 6 A Projected 2017-18 team: St. Cloud State (NCHC)
Montreal's first-round pick this summer was one of the youngest players in college hockey this season, skating for St. Cloud State. He was decent at times, with the inconsistencies expected of a 17-year-old going against opponents in their early 20s. Poehling is a smart playmaker down the middle who can score as well. He displays good hand-eye coordination, consistently makes above-average skill plays and can play with pace. His skating isn't fantastic, but he can get through the neutral zone well. Defensively, he thinks the game fine and works hard to win pucks.
  1. Christian Fischer, C/RW, Arizona Coyotes DOB: 4/15/97 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 214 2016-17 stats, Tucson (AHL): 57 GP | 20 G | 27 A Projected 2017-18 team: Tucson (AHL)
The Coyotes surprised some in the business by assigning Christian Fischer to the AHL instead of having him play for a Memorial Cup in the OHL for Windsor, but it looks wise now after Fischer was one of the best teenagers in the AHL of the past 20 year and got some NHL time to boot. He's got a great skill level for a big winger, making creative plays at a pro pace, coupling that with a quality shot and a good power game. He also showed fine defensive play for an under-20 player. Improving his first few steps will be key going forward, but all signs are pointing up for Fischer.
  1. Vitaly Abramov, RW/LW, Columbus Blue Jackets DOB: 5/08/98 | Ht: 5' 9" | Wt: 174 2016-17 stats, Gatineau (QMJHL): 66 GP | 46 G | 58 A Projected 2017-18 team: Gatineau (QMJHL)
Abramov followed a great rookie season in the QMJHL by winning the league MVP in 2016-17. However, what was more impressive was his short stint in the AHL, in which he was one of Cleveland's top players. He has high-end speed and puck skills, and his transition to upper-level physical play was quite impressive for such a small winger. He's trending in the right direction and could make an intriguing NHL camp bid.
  1. Josh Ho-Sang, C/RW, New York Islanders DOB: 1/22/96 | Ht: 6' 0' | Wt: 172 2016-17 stats, Bridgeport (AHL): 50 GP | 10 G | 26 A Projected 2017-18 team: New York (NHL)
The past few seasons, Josh Ho-Sang has bounced between being a top-50 overall prospect to being outside the top 100 in six-month intervals. After a strong showing during the final weeks of the 2016-17 NHL season, he has tilted back toward the optimistic part of his projection. He's a dynamic skater and puck handler who can be a dangerous playmaker at the NHL level. He'll never be a great defender, and he has had a series of issues with coaches at different levels, but he has shown that he can score versus NHL players.

  1. Kasperi Kapanen, RW, Toronto Maple Leafs DOB: 7/23/96 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 181 2016-17 stats, Toronto (AHL): 43 GP | 18 G | 25 A Projected 2017-18 team: Toronto (NHL)
Kapanen was electric in the AHL while he was just OK in the NHL, but he has the potential to be a scorer at the top level. He has dynamic qualities in his speed and skill, and improved his defensive play to the point where was killing penalties for the Marlies this past season. Kapanen will always be an offense-tilted player who may not win every battle in the NHL, but the overall growth of his game this season is very promising. He's right on the cusp of joining the Leafs on a permanent basis.
  1. Jakub Vrana, LW, Washington Capitals DOB: 2/28/96 | Ht: 5' 11" | Wt: 185 2016-17 stats, Hershey (AHL): 49 GP | 19 G | 17 A Projected 2017-18 team: Washington (NHL)
Vrana had another strong AHL campaign but didn't show a ton of progress from where he was heading into 2016-17. Some scouts argue he seemed bored, but there's also the argument that he didn't assert himself enough, which has been a continuous trend of his game away from the puck. When he's on his game, Vrana is a dynamic winger and one of the most dangerous players in the AHL. He can beat defensemen with his great speed and skill and is able to finish off scoring chances.
  1. Olli Juolevi, D, Vancouver Canucks DOB: 5/05/98 | Ht: 6' 3" | Wt: 198 2016-17 stats, London (OHL): 58 GP | 10 G | 32 A Projected 2017-18 team: London (OHL)
Former No. 5 overall pick Olli Juolevi's season was comparable to his previous campaign, but you expect progression from the 17-year-old season to the 18-year-old season, not stagnation. Juolevi has talent, but doesn't always assert himself offensively, too often being a secondary piece in the attack. His defense has been just fine but not outstanding; while his reads are good, he loses too many battles. Juolevi is a fantastic skater with all the tools to be a successful, two-way NHL defenseman, but he will need to step up his game in 2018-19.
  1. Timothy Liljegren, D, Toronto Maple Leafs DOB: 4/30/99 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 191 2016-17 stats, Rogle (SHL): 19 GP | 1 G | 4 A Projected 2017-18 team: Rogle (SHL)
Timothy Liljegren missed a sizeable chunk of this past season due to mono. When healthy, he has elite talent. He can make the in-tight plays and control the puck in ways that distinguish him as a puck mover. He skates well and can get up in a rush, but his skill and offensive mind elevate him to the highest levels. One negative is that he gives the puck away at times, trying to make one extra play. His defense is OK, but there are times when he is a clear negative on that side on the puck.
  1. Taylor Raddysh, RW, Tampa Bay Lightning DOB: 2/18/98 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 207 2016-17 stats, Erie (OHL): 58 GP | 42 G | 67 A Projected 2017-18 team: Erie (OHL)
Raddysh had a great campaign, putting up giant numbers in the OHL season and playoffs. He was also good at the World Juniors for an underage player, serving as the net-front presence on Canada's top power-play unit. He's a big body who wins a lot of battles, but has a lot of talent to his game. He's got solid hands, above-average vision and a good shot. The issue is a lack of explosiveness in his skating.
  1. Robert Thomas, C, St. Louis Blues DOB: 7/02/99 | Ht: 5' 11.5" | Wt: 188 2016-17 stats, London (OHL): 66 GP | 16 G | 50 A Projected 2017-18 team: London (OHL)
Thomas was consistently impressive this past season, and was an important part of yet another dominant London team in the OHL. He's a smart and skilled center. His coordination and creativity with the puck are top-notch, and he consistently moves the puck into good spaces to generate chances. Thomas can be quite effective on the defensive side of the puck, despite his smaller frame, and was one of London's better penalty killers this season.
  1. Kale Clague, D, Los Angeles Kings DOB: 6/05/98 | Ht: 6' 0" | Wt: 176 2016-17 stats, Brandon (WHL): 48 GP | 5 G | 35 A Projected 2017-18 team: Brandon (WHL)
Clague had a great bounce-back season, being a first-team All-Star in the WHL and returning to the form of a top prospect -- which is why I had him rated in the first round prior to the 2016 draft. He's a mobile defenseman with fine skills, and makes good reads at both ends of the rink. He doesn't take over a game, but he's always noticeable. I expect him to be an impact player again in the WHL and at this year's World Juniors.
  1. Lias Andersson, C, New York Rangers DOB: 10/13/98 | Ht: 5' 11.25" | Wt: 198 2016-17 stats, HV 71 (SHL): 42 GP | 9 G | 10 A Projected 2017-18 team: Frolunda (SHL)
Andersson was a solid piece for HV 71 in the SHL and Sweden's world junior team this season; he has produced wherever he has gone the past few seasons. He won't dazzle with high-end dekes, but there is a lot of skill to Andersson's game. He makes quick decisions, has a quick shot, sees his options well and has good puck skills. Andersson might be below average in size, but he's tough and strong for a player his age, and he can kill penalties adequately.
  1. Elias Pettersson, C, Vancouver Canucks DOB: 11/12/98 | Ht: 6' 2" | Wt: 161 2016-17 stats, Timra (Allsvenskan): 43 GP | 19 G | 22 A Projected 2017-18 team: Vaxjo (SHL)
Pettersson was a significant riser this season, producing at a high level against men in Sweden. Pettersson has very quick hands and a ton of creativity in his game, along with the ability to generate space for himself. He sees the ice well and can make difficult feeds. Pettersson's game isn't perfect. He struggles to win battles due to a wiry frame and lack of intensity. His skating has improved to the point that it's no longer a concern.
  1. Logan Brown, C, Ottawa Senators DOB: 3/05/98 | Ht: 6' 6" | Wt: 220 2016-17 stats, Windsor (OHL): 35 GP | 14 G | 26 A Projected 2017-18 team: Windsor (OHL)
Brown had a rough third time in his OHL season, as he struggled with injury issues; when he was playing, he never seemed comfortable. Huge centers who are also dynamic playmakers are incredibly rare. While Brown has his warts -- in that he's not exactly a warrior in the corners or a guy with fantastic defensive skills -- he is a unique type of player who makes unique plays. There's upside here.
  1. Alex DeBrincat, RW, Chicago Blackhawks DOB: 12/18/97 | Ht: 5' 7" | Wt: 165 2016-17 stats, Erie (OHL): 63 GP | 65 G | 62 A Projected 2017-18 team: Rockford (AHL)
DeBrincat continues to put up points in giant bunches. He led the OHL in goals and points and led the OHL playoffs in scoring. There is a lot to love about his game. He has high-end puck skills, plays with fast pace, and has a fantastic shot. The issue for me isn't DeBrincat's 5-foot-7 frame, it is whether he's a good enough skater for that 5-foot-7 frame. To his credit, he battles well and wins more pucks than his frame suggests. His OHL resume suggests a top-end prospect, but when I've seen him at NHL and world junior camps, I haven't seen the same player show up.

Leafs Prospect Update: Part 1-4

 

Prospect Update | First Edition |

 
I thought I’d start up a new series of prospect updates to break up the offseason. I’ll be attempting to write about 3 players every week, as time permits.
 
Travis Dermott | Defence - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 20 | 5'11" 215 lbs | 2015 #34 TOR
After suffering a high ankle sprain shortly after starting his rookie season with the Marlies, Dermott took a while to really get into a groove. After struggling for about a month following his injury, he started to find his pre-injury form again.
After returning to form, Dermott quickly became the Marlies most impressive defenceman. While not putting up the most points, he was by far the most reliable man in his own end.
Some positives when mentioning Dermott’s game are his strong ability to separate opponents from the puck, whether it be with his stick, or his body. His defensive IQ and decision making are incredible, and he has a great point shot. Dermott quickly became a staple on the Marlies PP and PK because of these talents.
There are a few things Dermott is going to have to improve to successfully make the jump to the next level. His shot is great, but he needs to work on getting it through defending shin pads and bodies, as it was often deflected, or he deferred to his partners. He has gotten better at that, especially during the marlies playoff run, hopefully he can show some consistency and keep his successful shot rate up. Another thing he's going to have to work on is his skating. He’s a powerful skater, but on the slower end for his size, but after some extra attention from Barb Underhill, I think he’ll be fine.
When talking about Dermott, Keefe had this to say, “I don’t know that there is a better 20-year-old defenceman that is playing in our league. That is a really encouraging sign, obviously. He’s got a bright future.”

Seth Griffith | Wing - Shoots Right | Toronto Maple Leafs | Age: 24 | 5'9" 192 lbs | 2012 #131 BOS
“Too good for the AHL, but not quite good enough for the NHL”. That’s a phrase often heard when talking about Seth Griffith. After initially being acquired as a waiver pick up by the Maple Leafs, Griffith bounced around from team to team for half the year, after failing to successfully carve out his role on an NHL roster.
After short stints in Florida and Boston, Griffith settled into a role on the Marlies, trying to take advantage of a key role on the team, in what could be one of his last shots at making an impression with an NHL team.
In his half-season with the Toronto Marlies, Griffith put up over a point per game, being utilized on the first powerplay line, and was a real cog in generating offense on a line with Kerby Rychel and Colin Greening. Griffith’s playmaking ability at the AHL level is top notch, and his eye for the open man is above many players in the NHL.
The downside to Griffith’s game is that he relies on taking advantage of lots of open ice and sub par defending allowing him an extra split second of time and space that he doesn’t get at the NHL level. When given that extra space Griffith is extremely dangerous, but is easily shut down if you have defenders checking tight against him.
To succeed at the NHL level, Griffith will have to take his game to the next level by working on his ability to find open ice, and improve his leg strength, to make sure he’s less easily knocked around.

Andreas Johnsson | Wing - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 21 | 5'10" 184 lbs | 2013 #202 TOR
It took a few games for Andreas Johnsson to get his bearings in Toronto.
After being concussed from a blindside headshot, Johnsson spent the next few weeks recovering. After he was back at 100%, Johnsson spent the offseason working at his specially made offseason training regimen, given to him by the Maple Leafs physio staff.
In the first 2 games of the 2016-2017 season, Johnsson picked up 3 powerplay goals, but picked up just 2 assists in the following 14 games. After his slow start, Johnsson adjusted to the smaller ice, and changed his game up a bit. He was still taking advantage of his above average shot, but also making sure to get in tighter around the net and fight for rebounds. Finding success in his new offensive style, Johnsson stuck to it, and manages to sneak in tight, and battle for his goals, despite being one of the smaller players on the ice.
In an interview, Sheldon Keefe was asked about Johnsson’s face after a fight. “He [Johnsson] seems to get hit with more sticks and pucks than anyone. He got in that fight, but there is never a shortage of wounds on his face. He earns every one of them because he gets down and he gets physical and gets involved in so many things.”
His strength is going to have to improve to do this at the next level, but it looks like Johnsson will fight for every inch.

Prospect Update | Second Edition |

 
 
Andrew Nielsen | Defence - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 20 | 6'3" 220 lbs | 2015 #65 TOR
Andrew Nielsen had a pretty good first year in the AHL this year. While he was prone to pinching too often, being beat to the outside in the neutral zone, and making often questionable defensive decisions, his offense more than made up for it in it’s overall effect on the team.
In the defensive zone, his strengths are his size and his active stick. While occasionally caught puckwatching, he usually recovers well when he doesn’t have the puck because of these things.
Sheldon Keefe had great things to say about Nielsen’s ability to grow his game and play under pressure towards the end of the Marlies season this year, “He has taken real big strides in the last month of the regular season and a bigger one in a tough playoff series (against Albany),” said Keefe. “He plays under pressure. It was big for our team to be able to put him on the ice consistently and have confidence that he is going to be able to play through pressure and make plays.”
Unquestionably, Nielsen’s biggest asset is his offensive ability. He has a great shot, which if I had to compare his shooting to anyone, I would say it would be Cody Franson. He has a great ability to get pucks through to the net, whether it’s with a slap shot, or his accurate wrist shot.
He’s going to need to work on his skating (stride, backwards, and crossovers), overall strength, and in general get further adjusted to the speed of the pro game, but I believe with a couple years of seasoning in the AHL, Nielsen has the ability to be an NHL defender. Whether that be as a 5-6 powerplay specialist, or a mainstay on the top 4, only time will tell.

Kerby Rychel | Wing - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 22 | 6’1" 210 lbs | 2013 #19 CBJ
Once considered a likely top 6 power forward, in the mold of JVR or Blake Wheeler, Kerby Rychel is now on the outside looking in at the NHL picture.
Coming in to the Marlies, a lack of growth to his game, and no real defined role on his previous teams had left Rychel’s game stagnant. At the start of the year, Rychel seemed like he was trying too hard to carve out a role as the team’s tough guy, getting in several fights in the first few weeks of the season, including a couple in the preseason as well.
It took a couple months for Rychel to really find his role on the Marlies team, as Toronto’s coaching staff tried to guide him back into being the power forward that Columbus hoped they were getting when they drafted him. After his slow start Rychel ended up being the Marlies leading point scorer. With an impressive stretch of 20 points in 21 games during the midpoint of the season. Rychel’s strengths are his strong net front presence, his ability to finish in tight, and his willingness to battle opponents hard along the boards. When he is playing hard, he is a very tough guy to play against. He’s willing to battle as hard as it takes, and he’s no stranger to dropping the gloves.
Rychel seems most likely to end up as a bottom 6 forward, due to his lack of a real “break out” season, or improvement on the skills he developed over the last couple years in the AHL.
I don’t see Rychel starting the season with Toronto next year, as he still has some value and is likely to be taken in the expansion draft by the Vegas Golden Knights.

Dmytro Timashov | Wing - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 20 | 5'10" 194 lbs | 2015 #125 TOR
With a log jam of talented wingers, Dmytro Timashov was left as the odd man out many nights towards the start of the year, which didn’t help his development. Timashov struggled for the first few months in the AHL, relegated to the 4th line, playing under 10 minutes a night for the first half of the season, Timashov may as well have started his season with the Solar Bears.
Around halfway through the year, Timashov really picked up his game, whether that was due to the midseason fatigue he managed to avoid by playing so little for the first half of the season, or just growth in his game after playing at the AHL level so long, we’ll have to find out next year, but for the last half of the season, he looked much more like he did at the QMJHL level. Dominant and able to make the puck go wherever he’d like it to.
Timashov is going to have to train hard this offseason to jump some of the other Marlies on the depth chart, but I firmly believe that he is one of the teams better prospects. Some of the things he’s going to have to work on are his shot strength, he’s going to have to get better at picking the puck from opposing players with the puck, hopefully he can pick up some tips from William Nylander.
For Timashov’s strengths, there’s his ability to have the puck on a string. He’s got great stickhandling and puck guarding ability. He’s got explosive skating, one second he can be at a stand still, and in just a couple strides, he’ll be at top flight. It makes him very dangerous offensively. Timashov’s biggest strength though, has to be his puck moving ability. He’s got elite vision, and is able to make plays that most players wouldn’t even see. I wouldn’t compare his passing to Marner, who is another elite passer, but more like Martin St Louis.

Prospect Update | Third Edition |

 
 
Carl Grundstrom | Wing - Shoots Left | Frolunda/Toronto Marlies | Age: 19 | 6'0" 194 lbs | 2016 #57 TOR
After being picked in the draft, Carl Grundstrom spent most of his 2016-2017 season playing for Frolunda, where he put up a respectable 20 points in 45 games, leading all players under 20 years of age.
Grundstrom’s biggest offensive asset is his ability to come up with the puck down low on the forecheck. He uses his short but stocky frame to effectively shield the puck from opposing players. He’s got great hands in tight around the net, he always seems to have his stick in the right spot, and is great at predicting where a puck is going to end up.
Another of Grundstrom’s strengths is his ability to adjust. He can play all up and down the lineup in the SHL and AHL so far. He’s proven himself trustworthy for defensive minutes and powerplay time. Grundstrom made a seamless transition from the SHL to the AHL, taking hardly any time to get up to speed putting up 4 points in just 6 games.
Immediately following his insertion into the lineup, Grundstrom was one of the Marlies most impactful players during their playoff run. Keefe had some praise for Grundstrom when he was brought up during the Marlies run, “It’s been good for us and the organization to get to know him a bit better,” Keefe said. “He’s a guy that goes to the net. He’s smart. And he’s competitive. He’s not afraid. It’s good to see him get rewarded. He seems to play better after he scores.”
He’s going to need to work on his skating, Grundstrom lacks that extra separation gear that’s going to allow him to mesh well with the rest of Toronto’s high-octane offense. There are a few inefficiencies in Grundstrom’s stride to work out, he’s got to work on getting more power out of his crossovers and work on smoothing out his stride a little more.

Garret Sparks | Goaltender - Catches Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 23 | 6’3" 206 lbs | 2011 #190 TOR
Updated from last years prospect update
The son of an architect father and stay-at-home mother in Elmhurst, Sparks grew up a hockey fan, but not of the Blackhawks, instead he grew up watching the Dallas Stars.
Always known as a bit of an underdog, Sparks was picked in the seventh and final round of the 2011 NHL draft. He was an eighth-round selection in junior. He never let that stop him though, in his last season with Guelph he set Storm franchise records for regular-season shutouts (seven) and victories.
When talking about his love of hockey, Sparks had this to say,
“I couldn’t go a day without (hockey),” Sparks said. “I don’t always have to be on the ice. I don’t always have to be playing with my friends. But at the end of the day, I can be on a lake in the summertime and all I think about is hockey. It’s not even a love-hate relationship. It’s just constantly there. Things go wrong in life and you’re not always the happiest. But at the end of the day you get a fresh sheet of ice and nothing can bring you down.”
To his teammates, and people that follow him on twitter, Sparks is a man with endless opinions, and ideas. The Buffalo Sabres’ newly released third jersey makes the Sabres’ much-mocked “Buffaslug” logo look “like a Picasso.” Young men who expressed disappointment with the recent engagement of Paulina Gretzky were delusional: “You never had a shot with her & you can still follow her on Instagram,” Sparks tweeted. “Your relationship hasn’t changed.”
Not just known for his opinions, Sparks is also quite well known for his on ice antics (3 separate links in “on ice antics”)

Scouting Report

The first thing you’ll notice when looking at Garret Sparks numbers is that they have gotten better every single year since he was drafted in the 7th round of the 2011 draft. He transitioned well from the OHL into the AHL, and subsequently back to the ECHL after injury.
In 2013, Sparks first pro season he saw 21 games, and put up a pretty impressive .915 save percentage. His transition to the step up in competition in the AHL was smooth, and Sparks adjusted to the pace quickly.
Leading up to the 2014 regular season, Sparks got injured in a Leafs preseason game, which caused him to lose out in the goaltender race between Sparks, Bibeau, and Christopher Gibson. Rather than have him play backup in the AHL, Kyle Dubas made the choice to send sparks down to the ECHL, to get a starters load, and develop his game with the Orlando Solarbears.
His numbers make it obvious that Sparks is too good for the ECHL, as Sparks put up a .936 save percentage, which was the highest in the league, by a .12 margin. He put up these numbers while playing on a floundering Orlando team that was regularly outshot, outplayed, and out possessed. Almost singlehandedly Sparks drug the team into the 8th and final spot for the playoffs. One thing you’ll notice when watching Sparks game is that he is a very good blocking goaltender. Similar to Leafs netminder James Reimer, he will do anything to put his body in front of the puck. He may not always control the rebound, but very, very rarely will he miss the first shot. Sparks has great vision, agility and second effort, but the things he’ll need to work on in the coming season though, are his rebound control, and shot positioning.
2017 UPDATE
Sparks spent much of the 2016-2017 season injured, and stuck behind Marlies flop and future free-agent fodder, Antoine Bibeau, due to off ice issues. Due to his limited ice time, Sparks never really managed to find the groove he had when he was getting consistent strings of games in previous years.
His strengths are his size, lower body flexibility, and his willingness to throw his body around to make second effort saves.
He needs to work on the quickness of his lateral movements when tracking pucks, and continue to work on his rebound control and recovery.

Future Expectations and Projections

Ceiling Projection: NHL 1b Goalie.

Trevor Moore | Wing - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 22 | 5'10" 183 lbs | Undrafted
After going undrafted in his eligible years, Trevor Moore finished his college hockey career with impressive numbers, putting up 44 points in 40 games with the University of Denver.
Moore was placed alongside two other scoring phenoms, Danton Heinen and Dylan Grambell, on a line that provided the majority of Denver’s offense.
During the offseason, Moore signed a 3 year entry level contract with Toronto, under the understanding he would be developing with the Marlies.
It took a little bit for Moore to become comfortable with the Marlies, as he struggled out of the gate. After his slow start, he took advantage of injuries in the lineup to move his way up through the lines, relishing his opportunity. Moore used his quickness, great passing and puck handling ability to quickly carve out a niche for himself on the Marlies team.
Moore has a great skillset. I touched on it there, but the way he handles the puck reminds me of Johnny Gaudreau. He often takes advantage of his speed to back off defenders, and his great hands which he uses to fire off a wicked wrister, and also make passes that most players wouldn’t even see. He has excellent east-west skating ability, and is very tricky with his feet, managing to fool defenders with his fakeouts.
T. Moore’s biggest weakness is his lack of size and strength. To continue to improve, Moore is going to have to spend a lot of time in the weight room, working on his leg strength and conditioning to help him battle against players at the next level.

Prospect Update | Fourth Edition |

 
 
Adam Brooks | Center - Shoots Left |Toronto Marlies | Age: 21 | 5’11" 176 lbs | 2016 #92 TOR
Adam Brooks has spent most of his hockey career battling adversity. Told that he was too small, or too slow for his size, Brooks took those comments and used them as motivation to work even harder to achieve his hockey dream.
After having a mediocre draft year and being passed over in the draft as an 18 year old, Brooks came back the next year and tore up the league, putting up 120 points in 72 games. In the 2016 draft, the Leafs took a flier on the Manitoba native. So far it’s paid off tremendously, with him improving to 130 points in 66 games, while simultaenously developing his defensive game.
Brooks was given more defensive responsibility in the 2016-2017 season than he was previously used to, and adjusted without faltering, averaging about 19 minutes a night while playing heavily at both ends of the rink.
The level of production Brooks had at the WHL is almost unheard of. He has had the highest assists in the league for the last 2 years running, and holds the single season assist record dating back to 1996-1997.
Among Brooks talents are his While Brooks has an innate ability to draw defenders in to him, to open up space for his teammates, he also has the ability to slip in and out of the play unnoticed, ready to appear just at the right moment to collect the puck and either make a seeing eye pass with his incredible vision, or fire home a wrister with laser accuracy.
One thing Brooks is going to have to work on is his situational awareness when it comes to taking a hit to make a play. Often times, Brooks will place himself in a vulnerable position to complete a play, to the risk of his own health. At the pro level, Brooks is going to have to adjust his idea of when that play will be worth it, and when it won't.
Similar to Connor Brown, Brooks is heralded for his strong work ethic on and off the ice. If Brooks is able to duplicate anything like Brown's rookie AHL season, we'll have a very exciting player on our hands.
To reach his potential, Brooks is going to need to prove that he is capable of playing at the AHL level. He’ll probably need at least 2 years seasoning before he starts to get a real look at the NHL, provided his development goes as planned.

Kasimir Kaskisuo | Goalie - Catches Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 23 | 6’3" 201 lbs | Undrafted
Spending his teen years developing in Finland, playing in Jokerit’s system, Kaskisuo decided to make the jump to North American hockey after going relatively unnoticed playing behind Joonas Korpisalo. After making the jump to the NAHL, Kaskisuo quickly caught the eyes of college scouts and ended up committing to the university of Minnesota-Duluth.
What ended up attracting a lot of eyes to Kaskisuo was his highlight reel behind-the-back save. Toronto probably ended up watching him more than most teams with former prospects Tony Cameranesi and Dominic Toninato also playing for Minnesota-Duluth, and it showed. “it was an easy decision to come here (because of) what they offered and how bad they wanted me here and how often they were calling,” [Kaskisuo] said.
Kaskisuo’s biggest advantage is his quickness given his size. His feet are quick to dart out and make a stretching pad save. He has to work on not overcommitting to shooters or going down too early, as it’s become a glaring weakness in his game. His positioning is suspect, and he’s prone to make the occasional mental error a la Jonathan Bernier.
Another of Kaskisuo's weaknesses is his consistency. Like many young goaltenders, Kaskisuo will look like a worldbeater one period, and then leave you scratching your head, wondering how he made it this far the next.
If Kaskisuo can learn to move less, and work on making more positional saves rather than relying on athleticism, he'll have a much better chance at succeeding at this level.
After his contract ends, I don’t see the Leafs re-signing Kaskisuo, they will probably let him walk, similar to other failed experiments in Rynnas, Bibeau, and Owuya.

Frederik Gauthier | Center - Shoots Left | Toronto Marlies | Age: 22 | 6'5" 238 lbs | 2013 #21
Freddy Gauthier being drafted 21st overall is a perfect example of the mindset of the former Maple Leafs management, prior to the Shanahan takeover. He’s tall, not quick by any means, and isn’t particularly offensively gifted.
What Gauthier does have in abundance is defensive skill, maturity beyond his age, and a very strong work ethic, leading me to believe he’s only going to continue to get better with age.
Gauthier is likely to be a late bloomer due to the fact that he didn’t take hockey seriously up until 4 years before his draft year. In the past 2 years developing the AHL and NHL, his stats have only improved.
Both Keefe and Babcock have learned to lean on Gauthier in the defensive zone. Starting the majority of shifts in the defensive zone, Gauthier maintains a relatively even Corsi, despite being saddled with other anchors like Matt Martin, and has improved his faceoff percentage to above 50% as one of the youngest players in the league to do so.
While he’s not the strongest skater, Gauthier has come leaps and bounds since his draft day. His skating stride and movements are much cleaner now. The difference is almost night and day.
Gauthier is going to have to learn to use his size more effectively to really develop into the role that the Leafs are looking to mold Gauthier into.
If Gauthier returns from his injury with no ill effects and continues to develop at his current pace, he will turn into a very reliable fourth line center for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
