Jake O'Brien checks a lot of boxes for me. Right-shooting center putting up a lot of points in the OHL, arguably the best current developmental league in North America (if not the entire world).
I have been saying for a while that if we drafted two centers with our 2 firsts this year, I would be quite pleased.
By the way, I know McKenna will be the main prize of the 2026 draft and DuPont the main prize of the 2027 draft. But McKenzie also seems to be very high on Quebec center Alexis Joseph for the 2027 draft. I think he is like 6'4" at age 15 and an offensive force.
