Honorable Mentions: C - Kyle Kukkonen, D - Rodwin Dionicio, D - Vojtech Port, G - Gage Alexander, G - Vyacheslav Buteyets
The first name on my list will be Vyacheslav Buteyets. I think Buteyets has flown under the radar, however it seems this year he will get some KHL time in all likelihood, and maybe even AHL time if we are lucky, and I think that will draw a lot more attention to him.
Vojtech Port is due for a breakout. His team last year was very bad. This year he will hopefully be on a team that gives him a bit more to work with. He has the skill, now he has familiarity with NA ice, and hopefully some better teammates and that could do wonders.
Carey Terrance is a somewhat similar situation, I think in general a lot of 2023 guys were kinda unjustly relegated to the 20s and he is chief among them. His speed and instinct will flourish with more support.
I think Noah Warren could move up as well with a new team that should be contenders again, and I think if he makes the WJC team he could become a very important piece of it, similar to what hinds did this year.
Lastly, Michael Callow should have a decent opportunity given to him at Harvard, they lost a lot of their top guys and he could likely fill in and put together an decent season to boost his stock.
