Scouting Report:

Lucas Raymond plays a strong two-way game with excellent vision, intensity and a has a good wrist shot.
His ability to generate speed through the neutral zone is hard to miss but he’s also capable of dancing around opposing players by using his edges very well.
His hands are elite and the best among this group of prospects, and it’s difficult to find anyone as creative as him.
He’s got an elite brain and can make plays like few others. He’s an undersized player who isn’t a top-end skater, which has led to some adjustment to the pro game.
Despite the lack of production with Frolunda this season, Raymond still has too big an upside for teams to ignore in the draft;
he has the potential to be an elite talent just like Lafreniere, Byfield and Stutzle.

NHL Potential:

1st line Winger, that can do it all
