1. Frank Nazar, forward, age 20
The Hawks' 13th overall pick from 2022 has enjoyed a sophomore year at Michigan as encouraging as his freshman year was discouraging.
He rediscovered his old self during the fall and has improved even further this winter, tallying 16 points in his last nine games to get to 33 points in 26 games overall. He'll likely sign and make his NHL debut after the college season ends.
