Scouting read
Nycz is a big defensive defenseman. The tools, more than the box score, are the draw. 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 defender with at least one NHL-caliber ingredient. This deep into the top 100, he is a swing, with a #94 public range across 1 tracked list. NHL Central Scouting has him 55th among North American skaters. For context, his 3 points in 35 games (0.09 P/GP) rank 144th of 147 among NCAA U19 since 2000 at a 35-game floor.
