QMJHL REGIONAL RANKINGS 🗣️

My top-15 QMJHL prospects for the #2025NHLDraft, with 5 honourable mentions.

This list will change over the course of the year — these are my initial takes based on 100+ cumulative viewings.

The year of the Q is upon us, folks. We're so back.
Justin Carbonneau (#2025NHLDraft) has that ability to just take over games on his own. It's still a work in progress, but sequences like these make you wonder how high he'll soar.

Ridiculous skill and dynamism. #QMJHL

Rim plays are such cop-outs. The Habs are over reliant on them, and Adin Hill is snatching up every single one of them tonight.

It’s easy to blame Dach, Slaf, and Caufield on the last three goals, but why are they in a position to make costly defensive mistakes in the 1st place?

If you’re wondering how my caffeine-fueled morning is doing:

I accidentally said “Lick Nardis” while trying to record an episode of the podcast and we had to take three minutes to compose ourselves before restarting. #Blackhawks
My latest Rinkside Roundup @eliteprospects.bsky.social:

- Nick Lardis is scoring at will in Brantford (#Blackhawks )

Yeah... Justin Carbonneau is really like that.

2nd of the game for Carbo, and it's a beauty. #2025NHLDraft

I’ve never seen more slap shots in a single game than I’ve seen tonight.

The Habs know Shea Weber’s watching.

Gavin McKenna has a 6-point cushion atop the WHL scoring race.

He has 22 more points than the next best '26 eligible skater.

Kid's good.

At this stage, it’s clear the Habs aren’t going to have a bounce back.

If I were the GM, I’d start experimenting. Call up Simoneau, Davidson, Roy, Beck, Engström in rotation. Give them looks. See what they’ve got to give.

What do they have to lose that they aren’t already losing?

10x fewer followers here than I have on Twitter, and twice the amount of engagement on this article.

Active, enthusiastic people > numbers. Love you all. ❤️
Tyler Thorpe doesn’t get enough love for my liking. Massive, skillful, surprisingly coordinated.

Oh, and Owen Protz is still just ragdolling guys in Brantford.

Yup. That’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got into this situation

It’ll be perpetually hilarious that so many of us were like “wait til Lane Hutson gets to the NHL and finally has someone who can finish the scoring chances he creates”

Completely forgetting the current state of the Montreal Canadiens

Per Jeff Marek on the other app, Beijing-born 6’6 OJHL defenceman Haoxi Wang is meeting with the Oshawa Generals to potentially join their ranks.

Boston University commit. The new CHL-NCAA agreement is already shaking the game up in massive ways. #2025NHLDraft

If we had beef over on Twitter, consider it quashed.

Clean slate. New beginnings. Let’s try again — and get it right this time.

Hi, how are you?

I’ll be making a ton of prospects stuff this year. Videos, clips, articles, discussions, polls, you name it.

2025 NHL Draft, Habs and other NHL prospects on your feed as often as possible.

What are you looking forward to seeing?

I know I’m late to this realization because I just started driving but… Montreal drivers have to be the worst in North America, right?
