Can Gavin McKenna be the next Nikita Kucherov?
About this episode
On today’s episode, the guys dive into both Scott’s 2025 NHL Prospect Tiers, his own placement of 120 or so under-23 players into the different tiers, then vetted by scouts and executives, as well as Corey’s first 2026 NHL Draft ranking of the season, headlined by Gavin McKenna in the No. 1 spot. Plus, the guys close things out with some listener questions in the mailbag.
