They landed the third overall pick in the 2022 Draft as well as two additional first-round picks in that draft, boosting their prospect pool significantly. However, the young Swede has a bit more of a scoring element to his game, and it shouldnt surprise anyone if Detroits development coaches place emphasis on utilizing his shot once he crosses the pond.

Mock Draft. I will be using Corey Pronmans definition of prospect for this, so if youre confused about why players like Dylan Guenther or Quinton Byfield arent on the list, this is why. Calgary has made a few excellent choices toward the end of the first round that give them a very positive outlook despite the disappointing season they are experiencing at the moment. To be fair, they did draft Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes who are two of their best players on a nightly basis, but the cupboards are rather empty these days with little help on the way. Their prospect pool has rebounded quite well since then, with prospects like Thomas Bordeleau and Brandon Coe being selected in the 2020 Draft, making it a positive day regardless of the status of their first-rounder that ended up being third overall.

The rest of their recent first-round picks, Rasmus Dahlin and Dylan Cozens, have taken massive steps forward this year as well, giving Buffalo one of the brightest young cores in the NHL with much more help on the way. The Sharks held the 11th overall pick on draft day in 2022, but rather than adding a top prospect like Conor Geekie (who Arizona selected with that pick) they flipped 11 for picks 27, 34, and 45, turning one asset into three. His raw ability is off the charts, and he will come over to North America by next season with a chance to play in the NHL for the 2022 season. They tore the team to shreds and have been tanking ever since. The assumption going in was that top five would be the five players it ended up being, but figuring out the order they went in (specifically 3-5) turned out to be a little more difficult than anticipated.

NHL farm system rankings: No. He has two game speeds, and that fouls up the opposition. Mark Pysyk: Mon, Jul 25, 2022: Achilles: The Detroit Red Wings placed D Mark Pysyk on injured reserve. His wrist shot is almost elite, his playmaking is well above average, and he could be a Calder Finalist in his rookie season as well. How he fares with the Griffins will determine how soon Red Wings fans can expect to see him wear the winged wheel. For Montreal, those players are 2022 first-overall pick Juraj Slafkovsky and two-way defender Kaiden Guhle. It feels like the Jets are going to be able to remain competitive for years with the passing of the guard from guys like Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler to Kyle Connor, Rutger McGroarty, and more on the horizon.

Cooley is a remarkable offensive driver who was the first center selected in the draft, taken one pick before Shane Wright. His defense has always been his calling card. Edmonton still holds all its future first-round picks and although they will likely trade at least one of them soon as they try to capitalize on the historic stretch of play that Connor McDavid has been on over the last few seasons. Simon Edvinsson is adjusting well to North America and has the potential to be an excellent two-way defenseman despite being a massive outlier size-wise. However, he looked a lot better as the season progressed, and he likely would have finished strong if the AHL season hadnt been cut short by the pandemic. What are your thoughts on your favourite teams ranking? McGroarty is my favourite Jets prospect and I was happy to see he didnt stay on the board for long in the 2022 Draft, being selected 14th overall. 40 brought to Detroit. Odds & lines subject to change. Defensemen like Dougie Hamilton, John Marino, and Jonas Siegenthaler are all signed for at least four seasons after the current one, so you can imagine the Devils either dealing from a position of strength and leveraging their depth in a trade, or building one of the most dominant defensive groups in modern NHL history.

The New York Rangers have gone from having one of the best prospect pools in the NHL several years in a row to having one of the best young cores in the NHL as those players (Adam Fox, Igor Shesterkin, Kaapo Kakko, etc.) For him, its about asserting himself physically while also making good on the offensive opportunities he does get. This is when players like Raymond, Veleno and Berggren should all be knocking on the door while guys like Seider and Rasmussen have already taken spots in the NHL. After being drafted in the first round of the 2019 Draft, Poulin has been the top dog in Pittsburghs prospect pool with no real competition. With two goals and 11 points through 22 games this season, Tuomisto is showing why the Red Wings were eager to use a high second round pick on him almost two years ago. The Toronto Maple Leafs have only used one first-round pick in the last four drafts, but have managed to mine some really valuable selections in the second and third rounds in recent years.

Mastrosimone has been a solid presence in all areas of the ice for Boston University this season. They have gone all in for several years now, and that wont end anytime soon considering theyve already traded away their 2023 and 2024 1st round picks in the trade that landed them Brandon Hagel from the Chicago Blackhawks. It feels like Samuel Poulin has been talked about as the Penguins top prospect for several years now, and thats because he has. Pavel Mintyukov was highly sought after in the leadup to the 2022 Draft, but there was a ton of attention on the other top defenders in the draft class and he ended up going to the Ducks at 10th overall. The Wild have the best prospect pool in the NHL, and thats not even including Kaprizov or the newly-extended Matt Boldy.
