2022 NHL Draft prospect profile: Ryan Chesley’s main qualities are in his defensive display

In the last profile I wrote, covering Swedish defenceman Calle Odelius, I noticed how split the analysts seemed be on the player. Today’s prospect may be the polar opposite. Everyone seems thoroughly in agreement over Ryan Chesley and the fact that he should be selected either late in the first round or very early in the second.
