Tynan Lawrence (C) – The Flames need top-end talent up the middle. Despite the draft pool being defence-heavy, Tynan Lawrence from Boston University (NCAA) is a strong option. At 6’0″, 185 lbs, he has the build for an NHL middleman. As one of the youngest players in NCAA men’s hockey last season, he posted seven points (2g, 5a) in 18 games. While he has room to grow offensively at the college level, he made an impact at the 2026 U18’s for Team Canada, notching six points (2g, 4a) in five games.
