2025 NHL Draft Shockers: Islanders’ Surprising No. 1 Pick Matthew Schaefer Sparks Debate and Drama
13. Detroit Red Wings — Carter Bear, LW, Everett (WHL)
Bear is the type of prospect that could have gone a little higher just based on talent alone, but he is coming off an Achilles tear he suffered back in March. Prior to that injury, Bear’s skill was plain to see every night. He notched 40 goals and 42 assists in his 56 games with the Everett Silvertips, and he is able to affect the game at both ends of the ice. If the Achilles tear isn’t something that hampers Bear long-term, he could prove to be a great value for the Red Wings in this spot.
