Sasha Pastujov's production makes him impossible to ignore when making a list of the top prospects eligible for the 2021 NHL Draft. His 52 points in 34 games lead the US National Team Development Program by a wide margin; only Chaz Lucius scored at a better pace over his limited time with the team. 

Pastujov has also continued to find the back of the net and pick up assists at the 2021 IIHF Under-18 World Junior Championship. He currently leads the United States team with five points in three games, and he's a safe bet to crest the points leaderboard by the tournament's end.
