2023 World Junior Championship: Top 10 NHL Draft Prospects
While the U-18 World Championship is the top event for NHL Draft enthusiasts, the World Junior Championship might just be more fun.
You’ve got the NHL-drafted prospects – including some lent from NHL teams – mixing it up with the next crop of talent ready to have their names called. For many of them, it’s the first real chance to play against older competition on the international stage, allowing scouts to judge them against their closest peers.
This event is unique because it’s the second World Junior Championship since the 2022 draft, all thanks to COVID-19. It’s great to have this tournament where it rightfully belongs – right after Christmas, with the end of the round robin ending just hours before North America begins the new year.
