Clarke Caswell

Canada

Seattle Kraken

Caswell consistently wins body position on opponents before touching the puck, even going out of his way to intercept them with his back. Inside the defensive zone, he forces high turnovers and dives down the wall to pickpocket opponents. Then, he quickly moves the puck to the middle. He prefers to play a give-and-go supporting game, highlighted by unique skills as the F2. Once he gets the puck, he instantly finds the next play, whether he’s delaying for a lane to open, deceiving opponents, finding the trailer, or hitting the middle driver. <a href="https://www.eliteprospects.com/nhl-draft-guide/2024" target="_blank">-EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide </a>

Andrew Basha

Calgary Flames

Basha is a fast-moving, dynamic winger with playmaking and scoring ability. If that fails, he has the checking game to provide significant value as a bottom-six energy forward, too. With his swift crossovers and handling moves, Basha carries the puck across blue lines. He cuts east and west, evades defenders, finds the gap in their coverage and gets in. And as soon as he crosses into the offensive zone, he looks for outlets. Defenders converge on him, opening up great potential play. <a href="https://www.eliteprospects.com/nhl-draft-guide/2024" target="_blank">-EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide </a>
