## Resource

Niko Tournas, a 20-year-old NHL prospect, is exploding onto the scene with 43 goals in his first QMJHL season, showcasing elite size, skill, and a deadly shot. Drafted around the fourth round with projections from McKeen’s and Elite Prospects, he’s climbing the rankings thanks to his rapid development after jumping from the NAHL. With a commitment to UNH but open to staying in the QMJHL, Tournas is a versatile, physical scorer with room to grow—especially in game processing. Comparisons to Kevin Hayes highlight his potential as a high-upside, depth-scoring prospect with a strong chance to be drafted.
