Xavier Villeneuve 2026 NHL Draft profile.
Xavier Villeneuve is listed as D / Canada in the local 2026 NHL Draft pool. The current static profile shows consensus rank, public source spread, latest season context, NHL Central Scouting status, and combine/event badges from existing local JSON only.
Scouting read
Villeneuve is an offensive defenseman with a Mobile Defenseman, Offensive Defenseman, Puck-Moving Defenseman profile. Power-play driver; injury and defending questions temper high-skill profile (Daily Faceoff, Steven Ellis). He also drew a 2026 NHL Combine invite. The question is whether the defensive details catch up to the puck skill. That still leaves enough for a top-four projection. He is in the first-round mix, with a #5-#31 public range across 13 tracked lists. NHL Central Scouting has him 18th among North American skaters. For context, his 38 points in 37 games (1.03 P/GP) rank 246th of 971 among QMJHL U19 since 2000 at a 35-game floor.
