Scouting read
Williams is a scoring winger. Watch-list piece noted Williams was one of the WHL's better rookies last season (The Hockey Writers). He also drew a 2026 NHL Combine invite. The concern is pace: he still has to prove the offense arrives quickly enough at the next level. It is a later swing on a player with one clear carrying tool. This deep into the top 100, he is a swing, with a #30-#95 public range across 2 tracked lists. NHL Central Scouting has him 50th among North American skaters. For context, his 57 points in 66 games (0.86 P/GP) rank 159th of 850 among WHL U18 since 2000 at a 35-game floor.
