Pavel Buchnevich
Drury and Laviolette Must Go
Smaller center with very good defensive ability and motor. He’s a top penalty killer for Youngstown. He’s a solid skater for his size. He has some skill, but for 5’9 it’s not that good. I think he has a good chance to be drafted next year, but probably mid/late rounds because for 5’9 he doesn’t have amazing skating or offense. He could help his case if he grows a little before the 2025 draft, and next year he should get a bigger offensive role in the lineup. Committed to Miami of Ohio for 2025-26. Has 4+8=12 points in 37 games.
