Malcolm Spence at eliteprospects.com

One of the more notable prospects so far for the 2025 NHL draft coming from Ontario. Should be one of the higher selections in this years OHL priority draft.

Player too little seen but I have the feeling that he will be the No. 1 in the OHL 2022 draft. Elite prospect to note for the 2025 draft.

Surprised this thread has so little posts, Spence would have been the first overall pick in the OHL draft had Misa not been granted ES.

Agreed, ill add some insight on the type of player he is.

Spence is one of the most dangerous players in his age group. He possesses a great combination of Size, Speed, Skill and Hockey Sense. He isn’t a one dimensional player as he has great vision and play making abilities to go along with his 1-on-1 skills. Spence’s feet are always moving and he battle and competes hard every play. He is just as likely to drive to the net with the puck, unafraid of contact as he is to beat you with a wrist shot off the rush.

Erie is going to love this kid.

Surprised that there wasn't already a thread, or for some reason my search couldn't find his name.


One of the 2025 draft top prospects, right?
2022 OHL draft 2nd overall pick (Otters)

6 foot 0 / 180 lbs LW / September 22 / 2005 / 15

was over 2.00 ppg in the GTHL u16 last season
- scored a goal in his Otter debut, in preseason game 1.

Dynamic forward, should have no problem in the OHL. If I'm projecting 2 years out, top 10-15 for NHL purposes. Dynamic skater, good skill, and elite finisher. Continued development in the d-zone and a consistent physical edge is needed. Complementary top-6 winger at the pro level.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Will be a key piece for Erie this year - may take him a little while to adjust as a late birthday but he has all the opportunities in the world for Erie.

Hey GermanSpitfire, could you fix the title, his first name is Malcolm, not Malcom,
so that the search actually finds him, thank you.

Scores another point btw. his 4th points already

 

[GermanSpitfire]

First OHL point - primary assist on a Ben McDonald goal. (Looked like a Connor Lockhart own goal) but it is what it is.

First OHL goal today. Don't have a clip ATM

Cool it was against Misa too

agreed - battle of the 1&2 picks in the OHL draft who are both first time eligibles in 2025.

That's a goal scorers type of goal. Man some really awesome prospects coming up in the next 3 years.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

My first thought was he's similar to Jordan Kyrou. Very good hands and speed. Good facilitator and can shoot. Makes quick decisions. More of a complimentary offensive player on a scoring line, but has a lot of offensive ability to play higher up in the lineup. Likely winger and needs to pay more attention to the defensive game. Good chance he could be a first rounder in 2024.

Picked up the OT winner tonight on a rip from between the circles after failing to convert on a breakaway
