We’re here to talk about the rest of the Hurricanes’ 2021 draft class. Rounds 4-7 were a mixed bag for me, as the Hurricanes picked an OHL defenseman who didn’t play this past season, a Russian goalie with fewer than 10 appearances and a German goalie that I hadn’t heard of. Still, the Hurricanes managed to grab a handful of players that I really liked. They stayed consistent with their strategy of drafting the high upside players that teams tend to avoid. Let’s dive into the selections.
Jackson Blake, 109th overall
Jackson Blake is a true boom or bust prospect.
