Prospect Info: 2024-25 Ducks Prospects

Black Aces coming over to the Gulls is a sight that the org is relieved to see. Is there enough runway to eek into the AHL playoffs?
Proscyzn is interesting prospect… played on a not great team with not a lot of help around him.

Showed some offense, big body, physical with a big shot …. Hopefully we can develop him into a bottom 6 piece

That OHL coach poll thing showed he was voted best defensive forward He was the only great player on his team, it's like he dragged them to the playoffs.
 
Ya there is only 1 drafted player on the roster…. Very weak roster

Yeah they were built to go on a run last year and then were hit by graduations before selling off for a rebuild. Have traded their other three NHL picks since the end of last season. They'll be better next year, but could see them selling off Pro by next deadline if they aren't yet in the contending mix.
 
I haven't done the prospect update in a long minute, but I want to highlight 2024, 7th round pick, LD Darels Uljanskis. He's 6'2 and a 194 lbs Latvian playing in Sweden's J20 Nationell league for AIK20. He finished AIK20 with 39 points (2nd on team) and 9 goals (7th on team). What is surprising is in the J20 Nationell league for defensemen, Uljanskis finished 2nd in scoring and 5th in goal scoring.

Anaheim might have found another later round defensive gem. Darels doesn't turn 19 until Aug. The Ducks can 'draft and stash' him for the next three years.

AIK are playing in the Swedish 2nd tier next season as well, and only have two non-Junior defencemen signed for next season so far. Granted you'd expect them to make more signings, but might have a decent chance at cracking into the senior team and playing some games.

I was impressed during development camp. Kid can really skate, good to hear he’s rewarding the faith.

This franchise is a LHD factory.
 
My only viewings of Uljanskis were at the U20 tournament on TV but he was really rough in those games. Defensively a mess and his skating was average at best. Sounds like he was much better in league play but I definitely put him in the longshot category after that tournament.

This is in line with what I saw at that tournament as well.
