The second year defender continued to show excellent development while playing in a top pair role for the Rangers. The Rangers were one of the hottest team in the OHL from December through March and Sebrango was a key in their success.
NHL Scouting Reports
Nate Hanley
(6) Release – Can shoot with his feet moving and is unpredictable. Nate has the ability to shoot through defenders legs while in tight areas and when playing the off-wing he has the accuracy try to go short side shelf from awkward angles. Nate is a dynamic player with the puck on his stick. He is unpredictable and can fire the puck quickly and accurately, yet has the soft hands to adjust his stick at the last second for back door passes.
Some standout forwards from the 2019 Nationals & how they’ve developed over the past 12 months
He plays hard. Finishes everything in his site. Can play multiple positions and play them well. He’s developed a bullet of a curl and drag snapper and has the ability to put it where he wants it. We love his enthusiasm, passion and effort. His NHL Grade has bounced around this year, but after thinking about his upward trajectory we have little doubt that he lasts past the 3rd round.
Cade Webber – 2019 round 4 #99 overall by Carolina Hurricanes
Over the next few years Cade’s development will be incredible and by the time he turns Pro he won’t even look like the same player.
Bennett Zmolek
He was not on our February Draft list, but with his improvement and upward trend it’s hard to believe that a team wont take a chance on him in the 6th or 7th round in June.
Alexander Servagno
Alexander was a ‘C’ rated left winger in Neutral Zone’s February Draft Rankings, coming in at #247. Lets find out who are the similarly rated left wingers and what they bring to the table.
Wyatt Schingoethe
(10) Intangibles – Wyatt is hard to play against. Plain and simple. He grinds his opposition down and is the type of player who will score a big goal in a seven game series. While at Denver we know his quickness will improve and this will only raise his potential, but he will make his money as a dependable third line guy who makes life miserable for the other team’s top players.
Dylan Holloway
(3) Feet – Dylan has elite speed right now and we feel he will only get faster, quicker and more agile after a few years of high end training at the University of Wisconsin. He is in contention for the quickest first step in this draft class.
Tim Lovell
(10) Intangibles – For the past two years Tim has heard the talk that he is too small to succeed at the next and all he does is keep succeeding and proving people wrong. We love that mindset and we love his hockey IQ.
Dylan Peterson
(5) Contact or Physicality – Another area that improves every time we see him play. He finishes his checks with authority and knocks opponents on their backsides. He is beginning to understand that at his size he can intimidate opponents and we love it. He will take runs at defenseman, possibly finishing his check a little too late, knowing that they will hear foot steps later in the game leading to turnovers.
Jacob Truscott
(4) Compete & Effort – No issues here. He is a competitive player who has had success at every level. Jacob wants to win. Even when he was a young free wheeler he was willing to battle for ice, block shots and play a high compete game.
Nolan Krenzen
Nolan has always had offensive capabilities, but we feel he is a defender who has improved his play away from the puck while playing for David Wilkie in Omaha.
Aden Bruich
(10) Intangibles – See Number 4… Aden will not be out worked. To us this is very important when evaluating Aden long term. If he has that same attitude while training and can have the same discipline with his diet and nutrition Aden’s quickness will improve. On the ice he has the mindset to play professional hockey and he if is willing to train his ass off heading into his second junior season and during his time at Clarkson University then we feel certainly feel Aden is a player to keep an eye on.
Zach Plucinski
(8) Body Language – After a big hit Zach doesn’t skate around looking for high fives.
Alex Laferriere
We’re not going to lie. We like Alex’s development and think he has real NHL upside.
Noah Beck
(9) Special Teams Potential – The combination of Noah’s skating ability, long reach and anticipation make him a natural penalty killer. Combine that with how well he maintains shooting lanes and his ability to limit second scoring opportunities and we feel Noah will be a regular penalty killer in professional hockey.
Danil Gushchin
(10) Intangibles – He has always put up points playing Internationally against the best players in his age group. We expect this to continue in the professional hockey and he has the natural instincts to be a top line player in the NHL. Danil is going to get paid to play hockey. His consistency will determine how much.
Carter Mazur
Again, keep an eye on Carter because we think he is physically growing into the player he has mentally always been ready to be.
Nick Capone
(10) Intangibles – Nick is big, strong and competitive. As a professional he has a chance to impact games in ways other than just on the score sheet. Some players we evaluate can only impact the game as a top six guy. We feel Nick can be more than that.
Lukas Svejkovsky
(8) Body Language – He plays the type of game that can rub opponents the wrong way. He may not have a lot of penalty minutes, but opponents seem to yap at him quite often. We see this a real testament to his competitiveness and enjoy seeing it.
