In the lead-up to the 2026-27 hockey season, we’re diving into the WHL prospect pool for every NHL team. To be included in this list, a player must be recently drafted, signed to an NHL contract, or meet the NHL’s criteria for rookie status. To quote the late, great Prince: 'Baby, I'm a (Dallas) Star'. Jaxon Fuder Six-foot-1, 176-pound forward Jaxon Fuder flipped a mid-season switch to the WHL into an NHL deal. After earning an invitation to Stars Development Camp last summer, the 20-year-old inked a three-year, entry-level contract with Dallas as an undrafted free agent in September of 2025. Fuder responded with 37 points (8G-29A) in 52 regular-season games with the Red Deer Rebels and Edmonton Oil Kings. The Cold Lake, Alta. product has amassed 63 points (19G-44A) in 97 regular-season games over parts of two seasons in the Dub and is expected to make the jump to pro with the AHL's Texas Stars in 2026-27.

BREAKING: Macklin Celebrini Signs $94 MILLION Extension! Did the Sharks Get a STEAL? -
🚨 The San Jose Sharks have locked up franchise superstar Macklin Celebrini, signing the 20-year-old to a 5-year, $94 million contract extension carrying an $18.8 million AAV. We break down why this deal makes perfect sense for San Jose, how the Flyers' Leo Carlsson offer sheet may have influenced the number, and why this contract could end up looking like a bargain. In this video we cover: ✅ Full breakdown of Macklin Celebrini's 5-year, $94 million extension ✅ Why the Sharks committed $18.8 million per season ✅ How the Leo Carlsson offer sheet helped shape the market ✅ Why Celebrini could already be worth even more after a 115-point season ✅ What this means for San Jose's future salary cap and Stanley Cup window Celebrini still has one year remaining on his entry-level contract, meaning this extension won't kick in until the 2027-28 season. Did Mike Grier just make one of the smartest contracts in the NHL, or is $18.8 million too much? Let us know your thoughts in the comments! #NHL
