I like the pick. He is right handed, and he had production in the USHL. Totally fine with this in the 5th round.

Smaller forward from Long Island... the last one of those they drafted has worked out.

Pretty good weight for his height - 181lbs @5'10". Good stats, and the Gaudreau Award. Nice tie-in with Calgary.

We had him 221st fwiw.

In-depth profile at NeutralZone:

"Ethan Wyttenbach (LW, R, 5’9″, 180, Sioux Falls Stampede, 02/10/2007, Quinnipiac)

Ethan Wyttenbach is a high-skill, puck-dominant forward with a dangerous offensive skill set and top-tier playmaking vision. While undersized by NHL standards, he consistently finds ways to drive play through quickness, edgework, and elite hands. His puck distribution on the power play and his ability to create in tight spaces make him one of the more offensively creative forwards in the USHL this season. However, his game remains inconsistent due to high-risk decision-making, turnover volume, and his struggle to absorb contact at even strength.

Case For Drafting Wyttenbach:
Wyttenbach brings clear offensive value. He averages 2.2 Grade “A” scoring chances per game and converts at a 16% rate, a respectable figure that reflects a combination of skill, anticipation, and net presence. He has scored 23 goals in 43 games, with a significant portion of those goals created off movement and positioning rather than size or brute strength.

He excels with the puck on his stick, particularly on the power play, where his 1.79 completed passes per game that lead to Grade “A” chances stands out as one of the better marks among USHL draft-eligible forwards. His ability to process quickly, execute under pressure, and exploit seams is advanced. His puck control and deception allow him to hold pucks a half-second longer to open up options, and when he’s not forcing plays, he creates quality looks for himself and others."

"Wyttenbach is a “swing-for-offense” pick with some high-end puck skill and power play traits that separate him from the typical USHL winger. His hands, vision, and game processing are strong — but his puck management, physical limitations, and decision-making under pressure must evolve significantly. Draft as a long-term development project with targeted focus on simplifying his game and building strength."
