## Resource

Tommy Lafreniere, Edmonton’s fifth-ranked prospect, is exploding onto the scene—41 goals, 77 points in 67 games last season for Kamloops. Drafted in 2025, he’s already showing elite development, earning a World Junior invite and committing to Western Michigan. His blistering shot, relentless two-way play, and elite mobility make him a nightmare for opponents. While his passing is simple, it’s effective—and his work ethic suggests he’s built for the NHL. A high-floor, gritty forward with NHL upside, Lafreniere’s the kind of player you can’t afford to ignore. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
