2026 NHL Mock Draft Shock: Gavin McKenna Tops Corey Pronman’s List—But Can He Live Up to the Hype?
18. New York Rangers: Chase Reid, RHD, Sault Ste. Marie (OHL)
Reid had a strange season. He started off playing well in the NAHL, and following the ruling that CHL players could go to college hockey, he left to play in the OHL, where he became one of the best young defensemen in the league. He’s a very skilled player whose creativity and offensive IQ stand out consistently. Reid is a good enough skater who can lead a rush effectively and attack with tempo. His defending is mediocre, and the main area to improve, though. He’s committed to playing at Michigan State.
