Segment 1
Which NHL match-up are you most excited for? Ottawa vs Carolina is intriguing. Avs vs Kings will probably be non-competitive and un-watchable.
Evaluating the offense:
TJ Hughes - Hobey Baker level season.
Jayden Perron - Dramatically exceeded expectations. Led the team offensively in the post-season.
Nick Moldenhauer - Previously minimal production, huge breakout season.
Michael Hage - High-end playmaker, season cut short due to injury.
Malcolm Spence - Up-and-down freshman season, started hot.
Adam Valentini - Limited in size but played a bigger role as the season progressed.
Cole McKinney - Strong in faceoffs but underwhelming offensive production.
Will Horkoff - Highly productive, highly streaky.
Aidan Park - Depth freshman, lacked consistent impact.
Keenan Draper - Praised for role mastery, leadership, and penalty-kill value.
Josh Earnesty - Depth player who improved on offense and defense.
Kayson Musket - Exceeded expectation in limited minutes.
Teddy Spitznagel - No meaningful playing time before leaving the program.

Segment 2
Evaluating the defense and goalies:
Luca Fantilli - Unexpected breakout senior year. Became a reliable leader.
Tyler Duke - High effort and physical despite his size. Took too many penalties.
Ben Robertson - Dependable, steady presence on the blue line.
Garrett Shifsky - Elevated his game late in the season, gets a special shout out.
Drew Schock - Limited as a freshman, grew throughout the season.
Dakota Raemel - Inconsistent with turnovers.
Asher Barnett - Excellent as a freshman.
Everyone else didn't contribute enough to get a fair grade.
Jack Ivankovic - Delivered high-level all season when not hurt.
Steven Peck - Exceeded expectations as a backup.
