Hawery is a powerful skater with an explosive stride, good body control and he plays the game with good pace. He maintains his speed with the puck on his stick and can make plays extremely quickly. He possesses a lethal shot with a quick release and good accuracy, and he has terrific vision, using fake shots to stall goaltenders before dishing it to teammates for easy goals. Hawery is also a hard working player that loves to compete. He projects to be a first line goal scoring centreman with solid playmaking ability who can play on your first powerplay unit at the next level. He’s a player that has the ability to step into the lineup full-time as soon as next year.
Mitchell was a steady presence on the backend for Peterborough throughout the year and provided consistent offence from the blueline. He was able to start transitions with his feet and got going in a hurry or send out a nice stretch pass covering multiple zones. His poise and control with the puck at the offensive blue line was solid, keeping his feet moving and using his edges to open up shooting lanes or fake a shot and drive down the boards and towards the net. In his own zone, Caleb used his skating ability to match the speed of incoming forwards and keep a good control of his gaps, allowing him to step up and knock the puck away from his man, or force them to the outside into low danger areas. Caleb has the tools and ability to succeed at the next level and could be an impactful offensive defenceman.
Jackson played this season for the York Simcoe Express of the OMHA. He is an exciting and dynamic forward who was able to drive his line and generate a lot of offense for the Express. Jackson is also a great skater who is really able to change the pace and dynamic of the game as he stretches the ice and challenges defenders. He has a good shot, but also good hands that allow him to navigate through the offensive zone and open up play for his linemates. While I think his draft stock is somewhat hindered by his size, I believe teams that are able to see past that will be getting a great player who should be slotted higher.
