Ryan McLeod, younger brother of former New Jersey Devils first round pick Michael McLeod, comes into the league as a solid skater with above average mobility, particularly for his size. His passing ability is top notch, and his play drives possession. McLeod will likely be a middle six center at the NHL level.

Scouting Reports

McLeod combines that size with speed and playmaking ability to create the potential necessary for scouts to consider him a first-round talent.
