not sure how any potential 1st rounder can choose to stay in the chl after their draft. Its so clear this year that doing so is just punting a year of development
News on the Ruck twins - Liam and Markus. They informed the 'NHL Draft Class' podcast (to drop on Friday) that they will return to @tigershockey for 2026-27. Also noteworthy was the fact Liam, the RH right wing, had 25 club interviews & Markus, a LHC, had 20.
@ColtonBaxter17@WJCrankings people are missing out on them, its such a good group. Malte gustafsson and william hakansson are two of tge most capable defensemen in the draft, and id argue the most defensively capable in the class
I saw mark and owen get some heat for their lists so I figured I should remind people they are the sane ones in the room. Reminder that disagreements probably come from the fact that either A. We value different things in hockey, or B. We saw different things in a player.
