Ivar Stenberg 2026 NHL Draft profile.

Scouting read

Stenberg is a scoring winger with a Cerebral Tactician, Dangler, Playmaker profile. Projected as complete all-situations first-line winger (Sportsnet, Jason Bukala). 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. If the pace holds, the upside is real top-line offense. He is being treated like a premium pick, with a #1-#3 public range across 17 tracked lists. NHL Central Scouting has him 1st among International skaters. For context, his 33 points in 43 games (0.77 P/GP) rank 1st of 131 among SHL U19 since 2000 at a 35-game floor.
