C Jett Luchanko - Guelph Storm, OHL (2024, 13th, PHI)

Very impressive game by him today with 2 goals and an assist for a point on all 3 Guelph goals. Getting more responsibility as the season progresses with top 6 minutes and playing on the PK. Now a point per game on the season.

Feel like he’s going to be a massive riser in the draft and expect him to go in the second round and maybe late first depending on the team. Reminds me of Easton Cowan last year when he started to rise as he was given a more prominent role. Let’s see how it continues!
 
Up to 26th on McKenzie’s mid season draft rankings. Currently leading a low scoring Guelph team in points. Hopefully can finish the season strong and end up in the first round.
 
Just another bump to say that he had a good showing at the chl prospects on ice testing. Finished 1st overall for total score and was top 5 in 6 of the 10 tests.
 
Started his OHL career off really slow but point totals this season hide the fact he's been really turning it on recently. Could turn out to be quite the steal. Those comparables too 👀

Lots to like here. Smart reads with the puck, forechecks well, plays in all situations. Think there is more skill there than meets the eye. I like him as a first rounder.
 


his goal and a bunch of his shifts are in the vid. 2nd time seeing him and was impressed both times, hope the Habs are keeping an eye on him.

I think he get more attention in real hockey world than from twitter-scouts.
Probably he doesn’t have elite tools, but his game translates to NHL very easy.
He's also an August birthday.

One thing that's obvious is that he's firm & decisive with passes, but doesn't telegraph them. And then his goal celebrations are very reserved.

Soooo, we should mention that he absolutely killed the combine.

Not sure when he'll be drafter. Rankings have him anywhere from the 20s to the 50s.
Depending on who's there, I wouldn't mind the Habs taking him 26th.

That's where I see him going around as well to a team with 2 first rounders as his development doesn't have to become a star but more a dependable middle 6 type of guy.
