Liam Slate has a lot of strengths going into SMJHL draft. His main strength is that he is going to be physically ready to play in the SMJHL. He has been training his physical attributes like muscle strength and cardio this offs-season. Slate will be able to handle the physical wear and tear an entire SMJHL season will bring on his body. He will have the stamina and strength to compete day 1 which will allow him to develop his offensive and defensive game as he goes instead of worrying about being physically ready to play against those much older and experienced than him.

Jöörgüštrâäd DuBølk's main strength is the fact that he's a fairly skilled two way defenseman, while also being an absolute giant of a man, much like his brother Jøln. Because of that, he resists checking fairly well, and is a good puck handler to boot. Despite his size, he can be out on the ice for a decent amount of time before leaving a shift.

Growing up playing as a forward, Conner Hutton has great skill, and strong sense on the offensive side of the game, despite playing defense now. He has a lengthy and accurate shot at his level of play and can make passes and plays to help his teammates capitalize. Playing as a defender in his last year before draft eligibility, it would be understanding to question his defensive game. However, he developed it quickly and plays an overall smart game, so it has been no trouble for him. It only helps that he has been focusing on those attributes over this offseason, preparing for the draft.

Alex Oscarsson is a highly touted offensive talent that has the world at his feet. The 6ft, 200lbs Right Winger has already played 12 games in the SMJHL, scoring only once while playing a pretty okay game in the 4th line for Maine Timber. Even though he scored once and had no more points, Alex is an incredible playmaker at his roots. The Swedish forwards ability to see the game is on a very high level for junior play, and he's just as good at finding the open players. He will have a lot to prove when he is bound for more responsibility next season for the lucky team that ends up drafting this offensive powerhouse of a player.

Sven Gunnar is not a natural center in terms of playstyle, he's there due to his national team but he has adapted to the role gallantly. He's a highly accurate shooter and an excellent skater who excels on the offensive side of the ice. His defense certainly has a long way to go but he's a pretty good face-off man as a center and he finishes plays well. His speed and acceleration make him difficult to control in the slot as well.

Marshall is a unique player, and his strengths will likely differ from the majority of his draft class. He is an old school power forward, who likes to play a physical game. He can score goals, is an excellent net front presence, delivers big hits, and loves to fight. On top of these traditional old-school elements, he's got surprisingly good speed, acceleration, and stick handling.

How Could I describe the strengths of Taylor Gervais, simple, he's a really great offensive player and his main strength for this is that he can easily get open for a pass. He's fast and very agile, he's not that tough guy that you can encounter on the ice and that will kick you butt in a fight, but that's not a problem because his main goal in hockey : put it in the net.

The two best attributes that Colin Lambert possesses are his passing ability and his stamina. His ability to dish the puck is a huge asset for him when he is controlling the puck at the perimeter of the offensive zone. He may not be the strongest defenseman of the S54 SMJHL draft, but he does take his cardio fitness very seriously. His consistent sprinting and running routine allows him to log big minutes on the blue line.

The Godmother is exactly what his nickname suggests. He has excellent speed, puck control and vision and granting the wishes of his teams top scorers. He is a pass first shoot second type of player that has deadly speed. Pair him with any amazing shooter and you will have a deadly combination. His vision on the ice is unmatched and can pull off some fancy passes in the middle of a game.

Neg Rep make big hits. Puny junior players run away in fear of big Japanese hulking defenseman. Neg Rep not great at scoring goals or making passes. Neg Rep only purpose on the ice to crush players. Sometimes his own teammates. Maybe he help the goalie once in awhile. This the type of player Neg Rep is.

Zelma Zuntnere is a top tier prospect from Latvia and one thing that Latvians always have in common with each other is their ability to thrive under pressure. One of ZZ's biggest strengths is her ability to read defenses and find an opening to score or make a scoring chance for her teammates. Although she still is young and there is a lot of maturing and growth in front of her, but she is trying to make herself one of the players to watch for the upcoming SMJHL and future SHL draft.

If one had to describe Johnny Shuffleboard in one word it would be offense. He skates well up the ice, sees the ice well in the offensive zone and he can shoot. If you are looking for an offensive defensman Shuffleboard is your man. He is ready to run your powerplay. All it will cost is your draft pick.

Ryan Rieley's greatest strengths as a player stem from his all-around package as a physical offensive weapon. Blending power with a bit of finesse and speed, Rieley is strong on pucks and isn't afraid to lay the body on opposing defenders while on the forecheck. When handling the puck in the offensive zone, Rieley has an excellent shot and can beat netminders when given time and space to shoot.

Wile E, Coyote's main strength going into the SMJHL draft is the intangibles. Yes, he is a decent prospect, with a quite developed offense for a prospect, and although smaller than some at 6.0, he is quite agile. But his main strength is his locker room presence. He is always positive in games, trying to keep the morale of all the team up even in rough patches. He dreams of being the next Wayne Gretzky.
