Didn't see as much as I'd have liked given the time difference but some guys stood out;
Kulich really caught me off guard. Admittedly I didn't know much about him but this guy looks like a good top 6 forward. Really impressed.
As a Canucks fan I was really impressed with Willander. He was a role player but did it well. Used his speed effectively, closed on guys with physicality, scored a nice goal & flashed puck skills. I just love his upside. Only 18 so a limited role but very encouraging.
Lekkerimaki was the big star. He had a tough year last season with injuries so it was awesome to see him star in this tournament on top of how he's been playing in the SHL.
Lindstein was a guy I really liked. Just a really solid all around Dman & the heightened pace of play doesnt seem to bother him at all. STL made a great pick there in the late 1st imo.
Ostlund was more creative at getting to the inside than I thought he was around the draft. Really interested to see how his career unfolds, he was fantastic.
For USA there's so many guys but Jimmy Snuggerud's shot was eye popping, this guy can really wire it. Cutter Gauthier looks like he'll be a really difficult guy to play against in Philly's top 6. Lane Hutson has obvious talent (he makes things look easy at BU) but I thought he showed a ton of heart + compete in this tourney. Augustine was great when they needed him. And Issac Howard really jumped off the page. He's able to make things happen when it's needed, TB has another guy legit player coming with him.
Helenius showed his high IQ, Celebrini was one of the best players in the tournament, Matt Savoie looked really good, Maverick Lamerouix was more in control of the game than I was expecting.
Could go on and on. Lots of great players in this year's tournament.
