2026 World Juniors: Top 10 NHL prospects who stood out during round robin

https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/2026- ... kh-zellers

I agree with Hage being on the list, he’s impressed me. Montreal has a nice prospect there.

Lever has mentioned Dallas Stars prospect - Emil Hemming (RW) as a potential return for Sherwood. He was an honourable mention to this list. Need to pay more attention to this player.
Haven't watched enough of the tournament to have an opinion on the list but Albert Smits has acquitted himself quite well from what I have seen. Big kid and moves pretty well too

Anton Frondell on Viggo Björck,

"He's the youngest on the team but plays like the oldest."

I’m telling ya, this Björck kid may make teams regret passing on him.

Great minds think alike. Smits is a stud. Pkays with ekotion. I see Moritz Seider and also Mattias Ohlund. Big horse that can play 25 min a night, mean, physical,,can play 2nd unit PP, kill penalties and chew minutes against the other team's best.

I still loved Ohlund breaking Koivu's leg after Koivu elbowed him in the melon.

Thought of that when Matt Barzal took a swing at Marchment the other night, that and Öhlund’s hack were fully justified IMO

What happened to Cootes? Just tuned in from the Fin-USA game to see him and the trainer working through something to do with his shoulder.
Love the Sport. Love the Team.
