Eric Florchuk is a forward prospect born in Fort Saskatchewan, SK who currently plays his hockey in the WHL, most recently with the Saskatoon Blades. Florchuk, who was born January 20, 2000 is roughly middle of the pack in age for this draft, and he sports a slender frame for now, checking in at 6’-1” and 173 lbs, per the Blades website. Florchuk is a player who has seen his draft stock rise considerably over the past year or so. This is likely due in-part to the reported large gains in size he’s seen over the past several years (he was apparently just 5’-4” not so long ago) and him starting to grow into that relatively newly acquired 6’-1” frame.
