Scouting read
Aaram-Olsen is a scoring winger with a Heavy Shooter, Power Forward, Sniper profile. Powerful skater, dangerous from circles, constant-motion attacker (Smaht Scouting, Iván Ortiz). 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. The bet is a useful middle-six piece if the tools keep scaling. He is more of a second-round conversation, with a #15-#35 public range across 4 tracked lists. NHL Central Scouting has him 15th among International skaters. For context, he ranks 3rd of 19 among U20 NATIONELL U18 since 2000 at a 20-game floor.
