2026 NHL Mock Draft Shock: Gavin McKenna Tops Corey Pronman’s List—But Can He Live Up to the Hype?
5. Pittsburgh: Tynan Lawrence, C, Muskegon (USHL)
Lawrence was tremendous this season. He played major minutes in the USHL on a good team, was a leading scorer in the playoffs and was very good for Canada’s U17 team, too. He’s a high-end skater who competes hard and brings a high level of pace to each of his shifts. Lawrence is also a great stickhandler and passer who generates a ton of scoring chances. He projects to be a play-driving center in the NHL that coaches can rely on at both ends. His only real issue is that he’s not that big.
