The 2025 NHL Entry Draft is set to be a pivotal class loaded with high-end talent across forward and defense positions. The battle for the number one overall selection is heating up among a few elite prospects from both North America and Europe. NHL scouts and GMs will be tracking upside, position scarcity, and immediate impact potential throughout the 2024–25 junior and international seasons.
This market rewards those who closely follow development leagues, international tournaments, and draft rankings as they evolve during the season.
NHL Team Needs: The draft order will ultimately influence the selection. A team in need of an elite defenseman vs. a franchise center may tip the scale.
League of Play: Prospects from major junior (CHL), U.S. NTDP, or top European leagues (SHL, Liiga) can have different developmental expectations.
Skating & IQ: NHL GMs place a premium on mobility, decision-making, and hockey IQ—especially for centers and defensemen.
Combine & Interviews: Off-ice presence and physical testing at the NHL Draft Combine can influence rankings late in the process.
World Juniors/U18s: Standout performances on the international stage often cause late surges in draft stock.
James Hagens (USA NTDP – C): Dynamic playmaker with elite offensive instincts. Regarded as the early favorite.
Roger McQueen (WHL – F): Strong two-way forward with size and finishing ability. Projected to climb throughout the year.
Aron Kiviharju (Finland – D): Elite skating and vision from the blue line. If healthy, could be the top defenseman in the class.
Cole Eiserman (USA NTDP – LW): One of the best pure scorers in his age group. If he rounds out his game, he’s a serious contender.
Berkly Catton (WHL – C): High IQ, point-producing pivot with top-line upside and leadership qualities.
