As of early 2024, Montreal Canadiens prospect Ivan Demidov has topped the ranking of NHL drafted prospects after previously being ranked third in July. His rise is attributed to the graduation of Macklin Celebrini and Matvei Michkov to the NHL. Demidov is described as the most skilled forward in the sport, with projections of becoming a point-per-game player. Montreal also saw four more prospects make the list, including David Reinbacher and Michael Hage, showcasing the depth of their developmental pipeline despite varying trajectories of their careers.
In the latest NHL drafted prospects ranking, Montreal Canadiens' Ivan Demidov gains the top spot, showcasing his elite skill as future all-star potential.
Demidov's ascent to the number one ranking reflects his significant talent, particularly as other top prospects transition to the NHL, opening opportunities for others.
Reinbacher's rise in the rankings is notable as he's currently recovering from a knee injury after limited preseason play, yet his skills shine through.
Following a strong NCAA season, Michael Hage's performance raised expectations, although his rank increase was less than anticipated given his impressive 30 points in 27 games.
