Sharpe is one of the top defensive prospects in his age group and should be an interesting prospect to follow going forward.

Has a rather small role for Lethbridge this season but they just traded overager defenseman Pauls so Sharpe might get an extended role soon. Has certainly earned it. Mostly rock solid, not playing like a rookie. Also has pretty much NHL size already, probably around 200lbs but he's an amazing skater for his weight class.

Also proved he can really shoot the puck when scoring his first two WHL goals last game:






At least Arntsen will be gone next season, maybe McCutcheon as well so Sharpe (together with Doyle and Chadwick) will likely be Lethbridge's go to defensemen next season which is gonna be Sharpe's draft season. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up being one of the top defenders of his draft class because I think there's untapped offensive potential.

Doesn't seem to get noticed by fans or media but I'm pretty confident NHL scouts are watching this kid closely. He's slightly smaller but reminds me of Sam Dickinson quite a bit. Not overly flashy but just so good in all areas of the game and terribly efficient in everything he does playing in all situations. Has 6 points in 7 games and a bigger role with the Hurricanes this season. He's also a big reason why they're the nr.2 in the WHL right now by point percentage. He's a 1st rounder in my book for sure.

Has 19 points on the season and, to my knowledge, is the highest scoring 2025 draft prospect among CHL defensemen. Not bad for a kid mature beyond his years and rock solid against the puck. On his team, only the topline of Edwards, Marques and Wormald (28 each) has more points and the Leafs 2023 pick Noah Chadwick has "just" 16.

Yet there's almost no talk about him and he still seems to be flying under the radar. Surprising. I'm literally the only person posting in this thread for almost two years now and he seems to get ignored on most draft lists out there as well. Surprising. Not sure what's going on but nobody seems to care about him. I'm pretty sure NHL teams do though. Criminally underrated prospect:laugh:
