Locked On NHL Prospects

In this episode, we continue our Prospect Spotlight series, in which we take a full episode deep dive on a single draft-eligible prospect, today's focus: Blake Fiddler, a mobile 6-foot-4 RD whose breakout skill and suffocating gap have been consistent strengths all year long. First, we introduce the player with his profile, statistical production, and his tools: shooting, passing, handling, skating, and physicality. Next, we shift our attention to his toolkit and habits, for which we take out the tactics board. Last, we discuss Fiddler's projection at the NHL level, where he might fall on draft day, and some NHL player comparisons.

Elite Prospects' tool projection scale goes from 1 to 9:

1 - Below AHL Caliber Tool

2 - AHL Caliber Tool

3 - Replacement-Level Tool

4 - Average 4th line/#6 Defenceman Tool

5 - Average 3rd line/#4 Defenseman Tool

6 - Standard Top-6/Top-4 Tool

7 - Standard Top Line/Pairing Tool (Nick Suzuki's hockey sense)

8 - Game-Breaking Tool (Quinn Hughes' passing)

9 - Top-of-the-Line Elite-Level Tool (Bedard's shot or McDavid's skating)

(note: we try to balance upside and likelihood of reaching it in our evaluations)

In this episode, we do our second Mock Draft with the revealed lottery order, with all but four selections fully confirmed. First, we delve into the Top 10, featuring Anton Frondell at #3 to the Chicago Blackhawks and the Philadelphia Flyers returning to Broad Street Bully status by swinging on Brady Martin's violent skill at 6th overall. Next, we look through the teams picking 11 to 20, highlighted by the Canucks swinging on a goaltender and the Canadiens landing a pair of dynamic WHL forwards. Finally, we wrap up the show with picks 20 through 32, with the Flyers landing a pair of intense USHL forwards with offensive upside in Václav Nestrašil and Jack Murtagh at 22nd and 31st, respectively.

In this episode, I answer your the viewers' questions. First, we discuss Marco Rossi's game and his potential fit with the Montreal Canadiens; the Utah Mammoth's top options at 4th overall; and Jack Murtagh's ultimate NHL upside. Next, we dig into Max Plante's progression through his freshman NCAA campaign before answering why the QMJHL has gotten weaker in recent years but is seeing a resurgence, currently. Finally, we wrap up the show by talking about Benjamin Kindel's draft stock and why Jack Nesbitt is among the overrated players in this year's class.
