NHL Draft 2025: What’s each team’s biggest positional need for the future?
This is about projecting five years down the road, and mostly focusing on what teams have in their farm system.
The Florida Panthers have five picks in the 2025 NHL Draft: Nos. 112, 128, 129, 192, 224. Here’s what to expect.
Pronman’s team needs
Florida has sold almost every major pick and prospect it had in recent years to win now. The Panthers do at least have some young forwards of interest in Anton Lundell and Mackie Samoskevich. There’s nothing coming on defense, though, and there hasn’t been for a while.
Names to watch
In recent mock drafts, Corey Pronman has projected the following picks:
112. Luke Mistelbacher, RW
128. Mans Goos, G
129. Lirim Amidovski, RW
160. Aron Dahlqvist, D
192. Mikkel Eriksen, C
224. Richard Zemlicka, C
