Inside Wheeler’s Shocking Summer 2025 NHL Prospect Rankings: Who’s the True Future Star?
He doesn’t miss when he has an opportunity. And it’s so hard to find goal scorers like him outside of the very top of the draft. I have seen him play pretty complete, competitive games. I’ve also seen him zip passes around and show a playmaking tilt, and think he’s an underrated passer who actually identifies second and third options quite well, even if he doesn’t always give the puck to them.
Eiserman produces that “he’s about to score here” feeling every time the puck comes to him in a good spot, and that supersedes the ongoing work he needs to do in other areas for me right now. It’s cliche, but you can’t teach that. He looks to me, with continued coaching, like he’s capable of becoming a 30-goal-scoring winger and PP1 focal point. But I understand the reservations many have about him and his game. He’s a complicated player and person, though I think overanalyzed as well.
