Sebastian Cossa too (94.1% in 19 games). Logan Stankoven (10 points in 6 WHL games). He might've put up huge numbers in a full season.

A lot of the should-be OHL and WHL guys in general.
This is why I'd be wary of trading away our 1st round pick this year unless you're going all in for Eichel.

I think there are going to be TONS of kids picked in spots where they shouldn't have this year because of how volatile covid made the scouting etc. Kids drafted in the 10-20 range because they had limited playing time will end up going top 5 in a re-draft a few years from now.

At 12 we could hit a home run, it's actually crazy to imagine how the rankings would look if everyone played a normal season.

Sillinger, McTavish, Lysell, Lucius are all solid picks though I think both Sillinger and McTavish would jump rankings had they got to play a full year, Lucius too to some extent.
