QMJHL Central Scouting unveiled its final rankings for the 2020 Entry Draft this afternoon.
As expected, defenseman Tristan Luneau was the top ranked prospect. Listed at 6’01" and 182 lbs, the defenseman recorded six goals and 24 assists in 37 games with the AAA Trois-Rivières Estacades this past season. He added two goals and three assists in five playoff games.
Luneau has previously committed to the University of Wisconsin and was drafted into the USHL by the Sioux Falls Stampede just this week. That is obviously a bit of concern for both the QMJHL and the Gatineau Olympiques, who will be selecting first, second and fourth overall.
Saint-Eustache Vikings forward Antonin Verreault was ranked second while defenseman Michael Mastrodomenico of the Laval-Montréal Rousseau-Royal was third. The Saint John Sea Dogs currently own the third overall selection.
The top ranked Atlantic player was Moncton Flyers forward Samuel Savoie, ranked fourth. The Dieppe native recorded 18 goals and 38 assists in 37 games with the Flyers this season. He had another six goals and two assists in four playoff games.
Six players from the Maritimes were projected as first rounders (top 18 - although there will likely be 20 picks due to compensation picks) by Central Scouting.
The full rankings can be found here.
The 2020 QMJHL Entry Draft will take place June 5-6 online. Only the first round will be held on Friday, June 5.
The trading period is expected to begin on June 3, according to Sea Dogs president and general manager Trevor Georgie.
