McKenna looks like he could be another Taylor Hall. I don’t know what Stenberg’s comparable would be but doesn’t scream superstar.
verhoff might end up being the best player out of the draft with his size and skill set. But will be become a number one D, or a solid 2?
Everyone is looking for the next biggest thing but I don’t see that (albeit with very limited knowledge compared to others). Seems like there are top 6 F and number 3-4 d men. Good players, but not generational/foundational ones.
Would be interested to see what comparables others have for the prospects of this draft. Trying to get excited but finding it hard to do so.

This draft isnt much different than last years except for the depth and position, and their isnt a huge drop off at the middle of the second round the depth is much better. Top end roughly the same. Seemed to have a lot of hype that it isnt living up to.
Now dont get me wrong i think this draft may have a pile of good to very good players but i dont see a boy remember the 26 draft talk ten years down the line.
All my opinion of course but i am seeing legit prospects into the third round. I think its a draft that produces a lot if nhl players but no superstars. Mckenna , Vaerhoff probably have the best chances of entering that discussion.
Personally hope to get another first and second in this draft lots of names to like in both rounds.
I do like a lot of the centers clustered in the bottom of the first top of the second. Di Lorio, Fitzgerald, Edwards and Dagenais to name some.
