HOW SPECIAL IS KEATON VERHOEFF? | Scout Breaks Down All 6 2026 Draft-Eligible NCAA Prospects
While college hockey is not typically the arena where 17-year-olds flourish, the hockey landscape is shifting and all six first-time draft-eligibles this season will be pushing for Top 50 slots on draft day. First, we look at the explosive starts of net-front bully Ilia Morozov and smooth-skating defenceman Landon Nycz. Next, we take a glance at Adam Valentini's sturdy and projectable game alongside Lincoln Kuehne's runway as a mobile puck-mover. Finally, we round out the show with the two potential NHL superstars: Gavin McKenna and Keaton Verhoeff, the latter of which brings a throwback style from the blueline, with a booming shot, standout skating, and the handling and playmaking to be a dynamic threat in the best league on Earth.

COULD GAVIN MCKENNA HAVE COMPETITION AT 1ST OVERALL?
Gavin McKenna has been a superstar in the making for nearly 4 years now, but could his grasp on #1 in the 2026 NHL Draft be slipping? We discuss his boundless creativity and dynamism alongside his three biggest contenders for the top spot in the class. Ethan Belchetz has all the makings of an elite power playmaker in the NHL, while Ivar Stenberg's elite skill is supported by the details and habits of a 30-year-old veteran. Keaton Verhoeff, the big and mobile defenceman with a howitzer shot, will also have a say in pushing McKenna to earn his right at the top of the draft.
