Can a get some ideas on the 2039 draft prospects?
No, its not funny anymore. Try better.
Best prospect from finland by far is Rasmus Rinne (2008). Plays in u16 league at Ilves. He’s playing style is pretty similar as Joakim Kemell years ago. Good skating, amazing shot, defensively would be better but he is physical.
Another very skilled player is Oscar Hemming from K-Espoo. He is very smooth skater and he has very high hockey iq. His brother Emil is eligible for 2024 draft.
Dman Niklas Kaarto (plays for K-Espoo too) is big, physical dman for his age. He has a booming shot and can open the game very well from defensive zone.
Some other players from Finland born in 2008
Viljo Kähkönen
Wilmer Kallio
Oliver Suvanto
Viljam Kivimäki
Vilho Vanhatalo
Jiko Laitinen

10 players who line up performances that make them (among the players discovered), the best currently :
1 Noah Kosick (Canada, 2008) : better PPG than Bedard at the same age in the same league. However Bedard had maintained the same average the following season in U18. It will be hard.
Probably the No. 1 in the 2023 WHL draft.
2 Ryan Roobroeck (Canada, 2007) : 3rd PPG in his U16 league with Jett Luchanko at his side. He had been the 2007 best player during the WSI U12 in 2019. Difficult to obtain information on the Mississauga gang (Misa, Moore, Spence). He greatly surpasses Brady Martin. Possibly the No. 1 in the 2023 OHL Draft.
3 Camden Pantekoek (USA, 2008) : 13th PPG in U14 (equivalent Bantam) open to players born in 2007. Among players born in 2008, he is by far the statistical n°1. He plays in a weak team and scores a lot of goals.
4 Gavin McKenna (Canada, 2007) : Only player born in 2007 established in CSSHL U18. Already n°1 of his team in points. Probably the No. 1 in the 2022 WHL draft. He had been Roobroeck's teammate at the WSI U12 and led the 2nd line.
5 Rasmus Rinne (Finlande, 2008) : Plays in U16 Finland with 2 years younger. By far the best 2008. Its performance is close to that of Kemell 4 years ago. Very far from that of Brad Lambert (his 2017/18 season is at the origin of his hype but he slowed down thereafter).
6 Tobias Tomik (Slovakia, 2007) : By far the best Slovak 2007 in Slovak U18 and he was born in December. Could play in U20 next year.
7 Ivan Matta (Slovakia, 2008) : His offensive production is close to that of Slafkovsky. No progress for a long time.
8 Dylan Rozzi (Canada, 2008) : No. 1 2008 in QBAAA. But performance not outstanding.
9 Harrison Boettiger (Canada, 2008, GK) : Only non-forward on the list. He's the goaltender for the famous Shattuck team. His average is excellent but he plays in a very strong team.
10 Louis Belanger (Canada, 2007) : N°2 PPG in QBAAA far ahead of the mediatized Philippe Veilleux. Score a lot of goals in a very weak team.

Born October 18, 2007 - That's 2026. Had he been born a month + few days sooner, he would be eligible for 2025.

It's funny naming players from Germany who have many points in the 3rd and 4th league of their age groups. You should check out Daniel Kazimov ,plays with Adel Akhmadeev in the same line in Düsseldorf. Great passer in my opinion. Beautiful playing style.
As a german to German. I think you should check out Daniel Kazimov (2008). Do you know him. What's your opinion on him?

If i am honest. I dont know how good Beckham Edwards is but his Brick record is very interesting. He is 2008 prospect so he is gonna be drafted in the 2024 OHL Draft (I believe it will be relatively high). I do like how my McKenna and Roobroeck takes have been shaping as McKenna went first overall to Medicine Hat and Roobroeck seems like he will go first this year to whatever team is drafting him

I've been hearing some William Moore talk heating up recently so it's possible right now the top Projected prospect is Moore currently which surprises me.

Agree on a lot of the names in Sweden and Finland , but I do think you have missed some of the most intresting players in Sweden, like:
Harry Styf
Ruben Östman
Casper Juustovara Karlsson
and Vertti Svensk from Finland

You’re 100% correct. It’s definitely not guaranteed to be Roobroeck. He’s be the favourite but some respect needs to be given to Owen Griffin, Brady Martin, Ethan Weir and especially like you said - William Moore.
You also have some Jr. Canadiens players that could usurp some of these guys too.
Viktor Fyodorov is getting a lot of hype on a Russian language youth hockey forum I visit from time to time. At least early on here, he’s seen as potentially the next big Russian star.

He tried to get surclassed into the OHL, so my thoughts is that he will go OHL
He was denied so I wonder if that will push him towards playing for the USNTDP. Could be a big loss for the OHL and Hockey Canada.
