NHL Draft 2025 Shockers: Islanders Stun Experts, Maple Leafs’ Shocking Miss Leaves Fans Reeling
I liked the Cole McKinney selection at No. 53 as well. McKinney is a strongly built center who excels in the faceoff circle, cares about detail and checking off the puck, and was productive on an NTDP team that didn’t have a star or a first-round pick. I think he has a very clear path to becoming a 3C for them behind Celebrini and one of Misa/Smith.
Overager Zack Sharp showed enough on the NCAA-champion Western Michigan University Broncos to warrant getting drafted where he did as well. And I’ve got a ton of time for the small but consistent in work ethic and impact Richard Gallant, even if he’s a long shot.
