F Ethan Procyszyn - North Bay Battalion, OHL (2024, 68th, ANA)

[Frk It]

Bigger forward (listed at 6'3" 189 lbs) who is also on the younger side for this draft (July birthdate). From the little I have seen he seems like a player that could be a good developmental pick for someone if they have some patience to let him develop.

Brock ranked him #27 on his OHL pre-season ranking and provided this write-up:

27. Ethan Procyszyn - Wing - North Bay Battalion
Procyszyn is another player who will move up the board quickly if he can find that next level of production. He has a projectable frame. He competes hard at both ends. He skates well. He had a great scorer's touch in U16 and flashed a high end shot as an OHL rookie. There is lots to like. In reality, he's the kind of player that North Bay has developed well historically. I thought about putting him higher and I feel confident in saying that he'd be higher on the early list of NHL scouts, but I just want to see if he can secure a larger role and produce at a greater clip first.

Not much commentary on Ethan Procyszyn, but he's a player that grew on me the more I watched. He looked really effective in the playoffs on a team that went to the Conference Finals. Size, physicality, high compete, decent skills should have a safe bottom-6 projection but maybe there's enough there for a middle-6 player.

He's a dark horse for me - I'd like the Habs to grab him in the middle rounds. There's more skill there than I think we've seen but he plays hard, a real warrior.
