Upside Hockey's Updated Top 83 2026 NHL Draft Consolidated Rankings

The Top 83 prospects from amalgamated draft rankings

• Rankings from who we deem trusted sources for the 2026 NHL Draft incorporated

  • We are now up to 83 prospects included (up from 70)

  • The oldest ranking included is now from March 1st, 2026

  • Includes Upside’s own April Rankings

• Trends as compared to our March Aggregated Rankings:

  • Moves Björck up to 5th from 8th previous

  • Lawrence slides down to 9th from 5th

  • Liam Ruck remains at 26th, with Markus shooting up to 26th from 36th

    • Note: somewhat misleading in this case as some have Liam ranked but not Marcus and if they did Marcus there’s a high probability, he would be lower.

  • Preston moves down to 30th from 25th

  • Roobroeck now outside the 1st round down to 35th from 29th

• Note: prospects need to appear on 4 or more to get an average
