The NHL Combine revealed little clarity for the 2025 draft order, though the New York Islanders are projected to select defenseman Matthew Schaefer first overall. However, the top prospects, including Michael Misa and Anton Frondell, show significant variability in their ranking. Frondell, a Swedish center, has impressed with nearly 25 points in recent games and is commended by peers, notably Victor Eklund, who emphasizes their successful collaboration. Eklund notes Frondell's talent potentially eclipses that of their competition in this draft class.
"It's been pretty easy to play with Anton. We didn't get to do it in the start of the season, but then we had to tell the coach that we needed to play (together), and I think we did pretty well."
"When most of the Swedish prospects were asked to name the best player in this draft class they faced this season, they said the 6-foot-1, 205-pound Frondell."
