Hmmm... Another free NHL Draft article from The Athletic.
Maybe all their draft content is free, I dunno. More goodies for us.

NHL Draft 2025: Which teams could take top goalie prospect Joshua Ravensbergen?

While it’s not a 100 percent lock, I expect Prince George goaltender Joshua Ravensbergen to be a first-round pick, probably somewhere in the second half of the first round. Ravensbergen is a 6-foot-5 goalie who moves very well and has been a top goalie in the WHL the past two seasons.
In my experience, when an NHL team picks a goalie in the first round, it is a talent-based exercise. But the organization also needs to identify a need on their depth chart, a path for the player to make it to their team and be philosophically OK with the risks entailed by using a major draft pick on a netminder.
Today, I try to explore which organizations I think would take that shot on Ravensbergen. Some of them may not have the required pick slot currently, but that, of course, could change by draft day.
