Four Badgers named in NHL Central Scouting rankings

By

The final NHL Central Scouting rankings were released on Wednesday, prior to this year’s 2020 NHL Draft.  One current and three incoming Badger’s made that list.

Current Badger Dylan Holloway is expected to be one of the first NCAA players to go off the board in the upcoming 2020 NHL Draft.  In the final  NHL Central Scouting rankings for North America, Holloway found himself in the No. 12 spot after a 17-point (8 goals, 9 assists) freshman season.

It’s not known at this time if Dhooghe will have to sit out a year under NCAA transfer rules, or if he’ll be allowed to play immediately.  The NCAA is considering allowing athletes to transfer once during their career without penalty, which could go into place for next season.
