    BUFFALO — A defenceman is likely to top the 2025 NHL Draft, but the event might wind up being defined by teams high on the board with aching needs at centre desperately hoping to finally find their guy. Erie Otters defenceman Matthew Schaefer landed at the 2025 NHL Scouting Combine in Buffalo early in the week as the consensus No. 1 pick.

    BUFFALO — Michael Misa, for better or worse, is used to being the centre of attention. But it wasn’t until a move back to the middle of the ice that the 18-year-old validated his exceptional status and showed the hockey world his true high-end potential.

And, when you look at the previous two, the similarities smack you in the mug like a Brad Marchand facewash — especially as it pertains to the best player on planet earth.

Finally, in that decisive contest on home ice, the Cats closed things out with a 2-1 victory.
