Recruit Scouting

● By Gavin Chiasson
The 2022 NHL Draft is right around the corner, just 1 week away from the release of this draft guide. The purpose of this draft guide is to provide a slightly in-depth reasoning as to why these players are ranked where they are ranked. Albeit, it is not exactly my proudest work. This year being the first time doing an actual draft guide, mostly solo but with some help from other members here at RecruitScouting, it’s been difficult. It may not read the smoothest, it may not fully show in-depth my feelings about these players, but it is a quick write up that I’ve really pushed myself to do this year – in an ongoing burnout. With that note out of the way, let’s talk about this draft class, and I promise, now that I know how much time this will take, it will be a year-long project for next year.
