The opposing teams broadcast team said they were surprised Andrew O’Neill was only #126 on Central Scouting ranking because he has so much grit to his game.  He had 2 goals tonight in a loss.

It's not surprising he's further down the rankings: 2nd & 3rd time draft eligibles get pushed down because they were passed over in their first time draft eligible, which is the case with O'Neill. 

He'll go between the 5th & 7th rounds if he gets drafted in 2026, maybe in the 4th if a team really believes in his defensive acumen and truculence

Yeah, plenty of times guys ranked in that area don’t get taken at all.  Only takes one team to like your game that thinks your game would suit a certain role.

Big and can skate is a good place to start in getting drafted.  Klee is a good example.  I could see him working his way into an NHL lineup some day.

My thoughts exactly. McKenna looked great against the weaker teams and didn’t do as much otherwise. I don’t think the WJC solidified his #1 status to most scouts. 

I really wouldn’t be surprised to see Stenberg go #1.
