From 34 points at 16 to 58 in his sophomore season, Hextall’s growth is explosive, backed by gold medals with Team USA. Headed to Michigan State alongside fellow Flame prospect Cullen Potter, Hextall brings a rare blend of energy, versatility, and relentless work ethic — exactly what the Flames need as their center depth ages. Scouts and GM Craig Conroy rave about his “little things” mentality and right-handed shot, making him a top-tier developmental asset poised to make waves in college and beyond.
