Online Showcase- Elite Prospects

In the last 10 years, we have seen data and video massively disrupt the scouting landscape in the NHL. Teams have changed the way they evaluate prospects, valuing large data sample sizes and video scouting to modernize talent management through new technology. This has led to European players getting drafted at historically high rates.

6 players in the 1st Round played internationally

18 players in the Top 3 Rounds played internationally

45 players total played internationally

2023 NHL Draft
