I never thought I'd say this, but if I was the NHL, I'd give Gavin McKenna some sort of exceptional status to enter the 2025 draft.
He's far too good already for the CHL and is scoring at over 3PPG in his last 10 games. I'd draft him first overall this year and not lose sleep.
Alright I hate commenting on politics and what not but this fake claim that a transgender pilot, Jo Ellis, was the pilot of the helicopter crash that killed 67 people is the #2 trending topic on this site.
Jo is alive and posting.
This is a clear smear attempt.

Mitch Marner had 102 points this season, double Sam Bennett's 51. He's also one of the best defensive wingers in the NHL.
I get there's an acceptance of losing Marner but acting like Sam Bennett is or has ever been a better player is "shiny new toy" syndrome.
Oh dear. Apparently a fan collapsed on the stairs of the Edmonton Oilers game. Paramedics rushing to help the fan in distress. Game is delayed. Ambulances rushing to Rogers Place.
Hope for the best outcome. Scary.

Used Puckpedia's draft standings along with Bob McKenzie & NHL Central Scouting rankings, as well as my own rankings & teams past drafting history as secondary factors.
