A future Blackhawks player may take the ice Wednesday for the CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game at ENMAX Centrium in Red Deer, Alberta.
The game will feature 19 of the top 31 players in Central Scouting’s midterm ranking of North American skaters for this June’s NHL draft, which will be June 21-22 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
Former NHL goaltender Kelly Hrudey will coach Team Bobby Orr and Team Don Cherry will be coached by Sportsnet’s “Hockey Night in Canada” host Ron MacLean. The game includes 15 players from the Ontario Hockey League and Western Hockey League, and 10 from the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
