Locked On NHL Prospects

On today's show, we continue our conversation with Chicago Blackhawks prospect and UMass Minutemen star power forward Václav Nestrašil. We catch up on his strong transition from the USHL to college, football (soccer) inspirations, and what's next for this exciting young talent. We had a lovely chat and thank Václav for being so generous with his time and a joy to talk with. Hope to have him back on heading into next season.   August 2025 Interview: https://youtu.be/4lQ1Tq17BXo?si=FZbNM1u65SU1AmBe   Part 1: https://youtu.be/a5Qo5A13TGc     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

On today's show, we check in with the risers and fallers across the USHL, highlighted by Chicago Blackhawks 1st round pick Mason West, who still has a long way to go but has adapted his game well to the middle of the ice. Next, we check-in with Jack Hextall (2026) and Jake Prunty (2027) who are leading their respective teams as young studs. Finally, we look at Thomas Zocco, who may be playing himself into a D+2 draft selection, as well as the Muskegon Lumberjacks, who as a collective have struggled as of late.     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

We focus on Cole and Lane Hutson on today's show, as the younger sibling has officially departed college hockey after two seasons, making his NHL debut with the same skill that has made Lane so special. First, we focus on Cole's path, development, and strengths. Then, we compare the two, looking at stylistic differences and similarities before wrapping it up with a focus on the Habs' sophomore's historic campaign.   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

While the regular season hasn't finished just yet, we ran a Tankathon draft lottery sim and break down the players we have slotted in those theoretical 16 picks. First, we look at the top 5, highlighted by the Rangers and Leafs winning the lottery to land McKenna and Stenberg, respectively. Then, we wrap up the top 10 with a fair few centres and some blueliners, before wrapping up the mock draft featuring Viggo Björck landing in Washington at 13th overall.   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

As we're 10 days past the trade deadline, we're looking back at the moves made, the teams on the right track, and those appearing directionless. We talk about the big deals like Nazem Kadri to Colorado and John Carlson to Anaheim. Then, we take a look at the teams with grand slam after grand slam such as the selling St. Louis Blues and the teams that left a lot to be desired, like the Maple Leafs.     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

In a draft class that remains wide open on the top end as playoffs in various leagues start to begin, there's arguably no bigger glut of talent than on the blueline. At least five defenders deserve to have their names mentioned in every top-10 conversation and a few more trying to break into that range. We break down the biggest names: Keaton Verhoeff, Chase Reid, Xavier Villeneuve, Carson Carels, Alberts Smits, and Daxon Rudolph.     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

It has been a tumultuous draft-eligible campaign for Gavin McKenna, but he's gaining steam at the right time, showcasing a degree of dynamic handling, creating, and dissecting that no other player in the 2026 Draft can match.Though valid questions have been asked of McKenna's physicality and defensive impact, the upside outweighs the risk on nearly every front. If he hits, we're talking Kucherov or Kane levels of potential. This is our first scouting report for the draft, but we'll have deep dives on most first-rounders by the time the draft arrives.   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

In a season where nothing seems to go right in Toronto, with the team's present now in as much doubt as its future, Easton Cowan's development plan leaves much to be desired. Not ideal for his status as the one significant prospect on the active roster. We discuss Cowan's game, what he needs to thrive, and what impact he could potentially have down the line. We extend these conversations more broadly to the Maple Leafs, debating just how dire their situation has become and what direction they must take to rescue themselves.     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…   🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube   Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More   🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter     Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects   Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian   Kareem Ramadan https://x.com/HockeyTakes15     📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers     #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects   Everydayer Club   Join the Everydayer Club for ad-free audio, access to our group chat on Discord, and more.

While the NHL has resumed in full force and the Olympics fade further into the past with each passing game, let us rewind to the tournament where Macklin Celebrini exploded not as a superstar, but something more, something special. In the first episode with new co-host Kareem Ramadan, we break down Macklin's best moments, nitpick a couple learning experiences, and take a look at the gold medal game that will be remembered for well over a decade.   Sebastian: I am so excited to welcome Kareem to the podcast. When charged with finding a co-host to lead this project alongside me, he was the very first person I reached out to and -- to my jubilant shock -- he excitedly accepted within a minute. He's a fantastic analytical mind who I am so glad to work alongside for the first time, even if I technically played a role in hiring him at Dobber Prospects in 2024. Since this past summer, Kareem joined me at Elite Prospects, focusing on the GTHL and OHL draft scouting. With previous experience interning with the Boston Bruins front office, his insights will bring a new dimension to podcast. So please give Kareem the warmest of welcomes and I'm excited to return to a two-host format.

While the Calder race gets most of the media attention, we zero in on 7 rookies outside that debate who have played increasingly vital roles for their respective teams. We start with Oliver Kapanen's role at the centre of the "Kid Line" in Montreal, ramping up the scoring rate as of late. Then, we chat about the seasons Yan Kusnetsov (CGY), Ryan Greene (CHI), and Fraser Minten (BOS) are having. Finally, we wrap up the show with the final trio of young guns who have impressed me as of late: Linus Karlsson (VAN), Justin Sourdif (WSH), and Noah Östlund (BUF).  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

The World Juniors Semifinals saw end-to-end action and the better teams winning both nail-biting games. The Czechs downed the Canadians for a third straight year, with a brand of intense and direct hockey that Canada's skill and finesse could not outplay over a full 60 minutes. We dig into what went right for the Czechs and what went wrong for the Canadians. The other matchup between Sweden and Finland became an instant classic. A late Finnish resurgence, end-to-end OT action, and a long shootout featuring netminders standing on their heads. In the end, the more skilled Swedes got away with the win and will face a staunch opposition in the final as the Czechs aim to win their first gold since their back-to-back championships in 2000 and 2001.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! DripDrop Right now, DripDrop is offering podcast listeners 20% off your first order.Go to https://dripdrop.com and use promo code LOCKEDONNHL. Indeed Now, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit.

One of my favourite power forwards from the past few drafts, Igor Chernyshov has gotten off to a great start to life in the NHL with 8 points in his first 7 games. We break down his season, progression, and what makes him special on today's show, including a rewind to the start of his draft year with my first enthusiastic game report on his potential and upside as a top-six NHL power forward. Just how high could he rise and which Sharks forwards make the best future linemates for him.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

On the last day of 2025, we look back at my 2025 Draft Rankings, which has aged well in certain respects, and poorly in others. We dig into all the risers and fallers of the past 6 months and see what we can learn from hits and misses alike.

On the final day of 2025, we look back at the prospects who have improved the most, risen their stocks, and outright surprised! Who did we miss? First, we look at five players in the elite category, highlighted by Macklin Celebrini, Matthew Schaefer, and Ben Kindel. Next, some personal favourites who have risen up the ranks, featuring Václav Nestrašil, Ilya Protas, and Alexander Zharovsky. Finally, some under-the-radar winners of the year, including Dean Letourneau's angry rebound tour, going from overwhelmed in fourth-line minutes to a shift-dominating power forward on Boston College's top line.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

The 2025-26 season is about halfway through and three players have separated themselves at the top of the Calder race: Schaefer, Demidov, and Sennecke. We break those three down in the first segment before moving onto a pair of netminders who keep rising alongside Zeev Buium on the heels of the top pack. Finally, we wrap it up with the honourable mentions, four players who have made notable impacts as rookies but lack the stardust of the top names.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

First, we look at the big games, USA vs. Sweden and Canada vs. Finland, featuring potential upsets and massive momentum shifts. Next, we wrap up the show with the Slovakia vs. Switzerland game that is destined to be a defensive struggle and Latvia vs. Czechia, which could be determined by whether Alberts Šmits is the best player on the ice.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! DripDrop Right now, DripDrop is offering podcast listeners 20% off your first order.Go to https://dripdrop.com and use promo code LOCKEDONNHL. Indeed Now, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit.

The centre position is truly the wildcard of the 2026 draft with a lack of high end talent. Reaches on pivots seems inevitable, but has this narrative been overblown? We dig into the best centres of the draft, including many ranked in my 2nd round who are likely to end up in the first round and maybe even top 20. We delve through the tiers and highlight the names NHL teams will be battling for come draft day.   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONHLProspects?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL 📲 Follow Locked On NHL Prospects on Twitter  Locked On NHL Prospects https://twitter.com/LO_NHLProspects Sebastian High https://twitter.com/high_sebastian  📺 Follow Locked On NHL: https://twitter.com/LockedOnNHLPods  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers  #NHL #Hockey #NHLDraft #nhlprospects Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! DripDrop Right now, DripDrop is offering podcast listeners 20% off your first order.Go to https://dripdrop.com and use promo code LOCKEDONNHL. Indeed Now, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit.
