Scouting read
Sokolovskii is a massive defensive defenseman. The tools, more than the box score, are the draw. He also drew a 2026 NHL Combine invite. The next checkpoint is strength, because the tools need to hold up through contact. The bet is a useful NHL defender if the puck play keeps moving forward. He is more of a second-round conversation, with a #22-#57 public range across 2 tracked lists. NHL Central Scouting has him 40th among North American skaters. For context, he ranks 244th of 308 among OHL U18 defense since 2000 at a 35-game floor.
