2021 NHL Draft Class
It’s not a surprise that Zachary L’Heureux sits atop the leaderboard after the first week or so. He’s probably the favourite right now to lead the league of 2020 draft eligibles in scoring. He’s not the biggest kid (listed currently at 5’11”, 196 on team site), but is strong on his skates, flashes some high end skill and already plays a pro style game. It’s early, but he looks like a good bet to be a 1st round pick next June.
Playing mainly with 2020 1st rounder Mavrik Bourque, Xavier Bourgault & Olivier Nadeau are both off to great starts. Nadeau at 6’2″, 204 lbs is your protoypical power forward who possesses a big shot & release. Bourgault, 6’0″, 172 lbs is much more creative and well-rounded.
Evan Nause, is an intriguing defenceman with good size and mobility. He was taken in the Top 10 of the QMJHL draft TWICE (6th in 2019, 5th in 2020). Click here for a full shift by shift analysis courtesy of Loïc Rainville (@Rainvlo).
Keep an eye on Manix Landry in Gatineau. He could be a real sleeper here.
