From elite goaltenders to powerhouse forwards and shutdown defensemen, each host brings their own strategy, biases, and bold predictions to the table. Debates fire up, steals happen, and a few shocking choices put the whole room on edge. But trust us… stay to the very end.

Today Colton and Daeden are joined by Islanders beat writer Stefen Rosner to dive into New York’s 2025-26 rookie camp.

We chat about which rookies could push for NHL time this season, how the Islanders balance international and North American talent, and what traits separate a strong camp showing from a future NHL impact.
