Jeremiah Mundy (LW, L, 6’2″, 198, Davos U20, 02/25/2007)
Jeremiah Mundy is a strong-framed, right-shot winger who plays a straightforward north-south game and has steadily developed into a reliable two-way contributor in Switzerland’s U20-Elit league. He represented Switzerland internationally at both the 2024 Hlinka-Gretzky Cup and the 2025 U18 World Championships, where he was given a more expanded role and responded with four points in five games. Mundy’s profile leans toward a power-forward style winger who thrives on puck retrievals, responsible shifts, and physical play—though he lacks high-end offensive flash or skill.

Reasons to Draft
Pro-Ready Frame and Physical Maturity
At 6’2″, 200 pounds, Mundy brings NHL-level size and strength for a winger. He plays with a mature physical presence, often winning his share of puck battles (55% win rate) and establishing inside positioning below the dots. He’s comfortable engaging physically and protects the puck well once established in the offensive zone.
High Battle Rate and Play Along the Wall
Mundy thrives in contested areas, particularly below the goal line and on puck retrievals. His strength, combined with good wall play and above-average awareness, makes him a reliable option to start and extend offensive-zone possession. His high puck battle win rate is a standout metric, especially for a player who doesn’t play a high-skill game.
Efficiency with the Puck
Though not a dynamic playmaker, Mundy makes clean, smart decisions with the puck. He completes 85% of his passes and averages nearly one pre-shot pass per game. His passes are direct, and he shows patience in low-danger areas rather than forcing plays. This reliability helped him earn special teams time with both club and country.
Effective in Limited International Role
Despite a limited role at the Hlinka-Gretzky, Mundy performed well at the U18 Worlds, contributing four points in five games while playing over 15 minutes per night. He looked comfortable in a supporting offensive role and was trusted on both special teams.
Reasons Not to Draft
Lack of Offensive Ceiling
Mundy does not possess dynamic puck skills, high-end speed, or deception in his game. His shot generation is solid but not threatening (2.9 shots/game, 1.87 on goal), and his scoring chance conversion rate (12%) is average. He projects more as a support winger than a top-six contributor.
Minimal Creativity and Limited Pace Variability
His offensive plays tend to be predictable—most of his value is generated from straight-line effort, board play, and support positioning. He struggles to create separation one-on-one and doesn’t manipulate defenders with hands, his eyes or changes of pace. These limitations reduce his ability to be a driver of offense at higher levels.
Low Impact at Hlinka-Gretzky Cup
While he improved at the U18 World Championships, Mundy was nearly invisible during the Hlinka-Gretzky Cup, averaging under eight minutes per game and producing no offense. His ability to adjust to North American pace and impact faster, more physical games remains unproven.
Limited Special Teams Upside
Despite being used on the power play in the U20-Elit league, he was not a primary puck-touch or focal point. His short-handed time was minimal across all contexts. Unless he elevates his decision-making and processing speed, his special teams upside remains capped.
Projection & Recommendation
Projection: Bottom-six, north-south checking winger with forechecking and penalty-kill value
Development Path: Two seasons USHL/CHL, two + seasons in an NCAA environment, two + seasons in minors
Draft Range: Round 7 or Priority Free Agent Invite
Verdict:
Jeremiah Mundy projects as a low-risk, physical depth winger with pro habits and size. His competitive habits, efficient puck management, and strong wall play suggest a potential role player at the pro level. However, his limited offensive upside, lack of pace variability, and quiet international showings raise questions about his NHL potential. He is a reasonable late-round or camp-invite candidate for organizations looking to add size and structure to their bottom-six depth chart.
