All-Purpose Prospect Thread v17.0

Extremely impressive from Misiak. Most of us were low on him at this point. But elevating your game for the playoffs is going to raise some eyebrows amongst the organization.

Brantford also moving on to the next round.

If management Isnt sold on him , he seems like a serious vault for an add on in the 1st rd for the Leafs pick ,

He went second round back in the day because he had a big USHL playoffs. Nice to see he plays his best in the most important games.

Victor Soderstrom – the d-man the Hawks picked up in a trade with Utah at the TDL – has been named the top defenseman in the major Swedish Hockey League (SHL). He’s a good skating RD who just turned 24 in February. He was drafted in the first round by Arizona in 2019 with the #11 pick. He played 53 games in the NHL and over 150 games in the AHL before going back to Sweden to play the 2024/25 season in his home country with Brynas.

After the Hawks acquired him I watched a couple Brynas games to get a look at him and my first impressions are he’s a very good skater and puck mover who is cool under pressure. He’s only 5’11” but he’s 185lbs and his skating should mitigate his size somewhat.

I think we may have another pretty good young d-man to add to the young prospects group.

Same age as Crevier and Vlasic (older by a couple months). Welcome to the log jam. He’s under contract one more year in Sweden. Basically the deal is he comes back to the nhl, he has to come here. Not sure how it works with his reserve rights. He was a qualified RFA that signed in Sweden after his elc expired.
 
For anyone that watched the final four, Florida was lead by a player that had 34 points to take them to the national title game. He wasn’t a big recruit out of high school. The reason is that in high school he was primarily focused on football and originally planned to play D1 football until pivoting towards basketball as his primary focus. Hoping for a similar trajectory with Spellacy.
Walter Clayton is fearless
