2026 Mock Draft Round Two: Hot Shots Part Deux

ROUND TWO

31) OTTAWA SLAMMERS - C7 Ilia Morozov (Gary) "Now I know Pat will take whoever the Sens take at 32 but for now I go with Morozov."

32) ST. LOUIS SPARTANS - G1 Tobias Trejbal (Ryan) "Like the Wings, Sean is losing confidence in Cossa and starts the goalie run with Tobias Trejbal."

33) STOCKHOLM COUGARS - C8 Maddox Dagenais (Matt) "I can't abide Dagenais sliding anymore, so give him to Tom!"

34) BANFF ROCKIES (from the Aces) - C9 Markus Ruck (Gary) "I think Ian will jump all over Ruck #2 in Marcus a guy who put up 108 pts in the Dub! This seems like where he will slot in come draft day."

35) TORONTO REX (from the Sun Devils) - W14 Ryan Roobroeck (Ryan) "Taran will gamble that the sim will get more out of his size than maybe his NHL team will and take Roobroeck."

36) TORONTO REX - W15 Jaxon Cover (Matt) "I'm going to bet on Taran waiting till one of his later picks to settle on a goalie. With this pick, I'm thinking a swing on inline all star Jaxon Cover."

37) PHILADELPHIA FIRE ANTS - G2 Dmitri Borichev (Gary) "Norm's gonna roll the dice on a goalie, so he takes Dmitri Borichev with this pick."

38) REYKJAVIK RIDERS - G3 Brady Knowling (Ryan) "Syl isn't big on goalies this early, but a chance to nab CS #1 ranked Brady Knowling is too big to pass on."

39) SEATTLE GRUNGE - G4 Yegor Rybkin (Matt) "Seattle, rounding out their draft crop - and staying ahead of the run on goalies - select Yegor Rybkin."

40) JACKSONVILLE GATORS - C10 Yegor Shilov (Gary) "Gators' Thaddeus will be happy when he hears they select Yegor Shilov."

41) BOSTON COLONIALS (from the Bisons) - W16 Simas Ignatavicius (Ryan) "Still maintaining his faith in Levi, and knowing that Norm is only a few picks away, Gary avoids the goalie temptation and goes for the intriguing and best name available Simas Ignatavicius."

42) VANCOUVER VIPERS - C11 Jack Hextall (Matt) "Bryce is taking the overlooked Jack Hextall."

43) ST. LOUIS SPARTANS (from the Schooners) - W17 Casey Mutryn (Gary) "Spartans grabbed a goalie already so let’s go with USNTDP winger Casey Mutryn."

44) WHITEHORSE HUSKIES - D12 William Hakansson (Ryan) "Hard for Don to resist the goalie urge, but I think he adds a potential big strong William Hakansson on the back end."

45) PHILADELPHIA FIRE ANTS (from the Shamrocks) - C12 Ryder Cali (Matt) "Commie Norm who's a fan of commie California will happily take Ryder Cali! I can hear you booing from here."

46) TORONTO REX (from the Barons) - D13 Maksim Sokolovskii (Gary) "T-Rex will take mammoth sized Knights defenseman Maksim Sokolovskii!"

47) STOCKHOLM COUGARS (from the Norsemen) - D14 Nikita Shcherbakov (Ryan) "After taking a couple forwards Tom goes back to his comfort zone and takes a swing on big project D Nikita Shcherbakov."

48) TORONTO REX (from the Ice) - D15 Adam Goljer (Matt) "Taran, still chasing that stacked blueline, selects Adam Goljer."

49) ST. LOUIS SPARTANS (from the Mustangs) - C13 Brooks Rogowski (Gary) "Spartans take the big man Brooks Rogowski with their pick! Size matters? And we can all say 6 7 as in 6’7”."

50) HAMBURG GLADIATORS - C14 Wiggo Sörensson (Ryan) "Gladiators continue to throw darts for a C in Wiggo Sorensson."

52) EDMONTON SUPERSONICS - W18 Jonas Lagerberg Hoen (Gary) "Supersonics going full on Swede with this pick and take 6’2” RW Jonas Lagerberg Hoen."

53) CHICAGO TIGERS - G6 Patriks Plumins (Ryan) "Sheetal would like another shot at a future goalie and reignites the goalie run with Patriks Plumins."

54) FREDERICTON EXPRESS - C15 Thomas Vandenberg (Matt) "Thomas Vandenberg feels like a Mark pick."

55) WHITEHORSE HUSKIES (from the Rockies) - G7 Filip Ruzicka (Gary) "Huskies go goalie here and take 6’7” Filip Ruzicka from the Brandon Wheat Kings!"

56) VANCOUVER VIPERS (from the Colonials) - G8 Dmitri Ivchenko (Ryan) "Bryce's prospect pool is bloody stacked. Goalie could be a bit stronger I suppose, so he'll continue the second goalie run with dark horse Dmitri Ivchenko."

57) MONTREAL MILLIONAIRES - W19 Niklas Aaram-Olsen (Matt) "Montreal with Wallstedt doesn't need to dip into the goalie pool just yet, so lets go with Swedish winger Niklas Aaram-Olsen."

58) LAS VEGAS ACES (from the Revolution) - D16 Jakub Vanecek (Gary) "Aces are gonna add to the D with 6’2” LHD Jakub Vanecek from Tri-city in the Dub!"
