Brayden Tracey is not your typical rookie CHLer. He scored 81 points in 66 games for the Moose Jaw Warriors in his first year in Major Junior hockey. The stats alone speak to his talent as an offensive player.
Last year, he only played five games with the Moose Jaw Warriors before being sent back to dominate Midget AAA. Born on May 28, he would have been 16 for the entirety of the 2017-18 season, and is therefore one of the younger draft-eligible players in this 2019 class.
The decision to send him back seemed to have been the correct one considering his almost immediate impact on the Warriors this year.
