"The Rangers have signed 2024 5th round pick Nathan Aspinall to a three year entry level contract. Aspinall, the 159th overall pick in 2024, is another big body that can do more than just grind and hit people. Comparable to Adam Edstrom and Dylan Roobroeck, Aspinall has a nice scoring line of 6-4-10 in 6 games this year in the OHL as a 19 year old."
"Last season, his age-18 season, he put up a very respectable 17-30-47 in 62 games. Hope has put Nathan Aspinall in several of her prospect power rankings, noting that the skill is definitely there but he can sometimes struggle to be present for all 60 minutes of a hockey game. That was last season, so perhaps he's worked on that this season."
Nathan Aspinall, the Rangers' 2024 fifth-round (159th overall) pick, signed a three-year entry-level contract. He is a big-bodied forward who can skate and score, producing 6-4-10 in six OHL games this year as a 19-year-old and 17-30-47 in 62 games at age 18 last season. Scouts compare him to Adam Edstrom and Dylan Roobroeck. Prospect analyst Hope has ranked him in multiple power lists while noting his skill but occasional lapses in engagement for full games. Aspinall will finish the OHL season and is expected to move to the AHL next year.
