1.5 month out - this is my prediction:

Adam Goljer - 2nd round
Tomas Chrenko - 3rd round
Adam Nemec - 3rd round
Jakub Floriš - 4th round
Samuel Hrenák - 5th round
Lucian Bernát - 6th round

Tobias Tomík, Jakubec and Henriquez all have a chance but in my opinion will not be drafted.

I am pretty confident Goljer goes late 1st round.

From NHL Mock Draft 2026: All 32 first-round picks projected by Corey Pronman

23. Boston Bruins: Adam Goljer, RHD, Trencin (Extraliga)
Goljer is trending up with teams after a strong worlds and the Bruins haven’t picked a defenseman in the first round in a decade. Goljer skates well, breaks up plays effectively, and makes a good first pass, even if he doesn’t project as a major offensive driver. He projects to become a dependable top-four presence on the Bruins’ blue line.

Goljer is one of younger kids in the draft, born in June and it makes a lot of impact in such young age. Scouts focus much on the progress they see and he made some remarkable improvements. For me, the key aspects are:
- at WJC he did not play a lot, but his transition game was excellent
- for Dukla, he was the youngest D, but he was playing regular PK minutes
- they sent him back to juniors for playoffs and he was dominant leader, these kind of players usually just coast around when sent down to juniors. He had 9 pts in 6 games.
- no need to talk about U18s
He reminds me a lite version of Noah Dobson. Could become a solid 2nd pair D.
 
Can anyone tell me more about Chrenko and Nemec?

They both look interesting on paper.
 

This is a very promising ranking by Pronman, but remember last year - he had on these positions Pobezal and Radivojevic, and we know how it turned out.
 
Can anyone tell me more about Chrenko and Nemec?

They both look interesting on paper.
Chrenko has above avarage shooting, passing and puckhandling and a very good hockey IQ but is undersized at 5´10 and is an avarage skater - which in players his size is sometimes not enough. He has non-existent defence and can´t win a board battle.

Nemec is a smart, defensively responsible winger. He has avarage skill and skating but decent size and motor. No separating tool is the problem.
 
Can anyone tell me more about Chrenko and Nemec?

Chrenko is a center which is very important for slovak hockey. Hopefully he can play as a center in the NHL/Top EU league too. His game is about his hockey IQ, very inteligent player. Needs to get stronger physically but hes only 18 so we'll see
